Practice What You Preach (eBook, ePUB)

Teacher Accountability and Personal Values

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book is based on the recognition that students learn best, and learn the most, when they witness their teachers modeling the characteristics they profess to value in their classrooms; in other words, when they see their teachers "practice what they preach". If teachers are going to hold themselves true to this adage, then not only do they have a responsibility to practice what they preach, but they must also be deliberate about what they preach in the first place. Practice What You Preach: Teacher Accountability and Personal Values explores how teachers can "preach" the values that matter most in the classroom and provides practical strategies for how to put those values into "practice". Each chapter focuses on a different value that is worthy of investing time and energy into as an educator, and worthy of being "preached" and "practiced" through integrating them into curriculum outcomes lessons. Teachers who put into practice the values that they preach reap the rewards of respectful and engaged students. Students likewise reap rewards of self-confidence, determination, and a love of learning when those same values are modeled by their teachers.
