Teaching Philosophy :: Education Teaching Teachers Essays
Teaching Philosophy After examining all of the different training philosophies, I have chosen to side with Rousseaus theory. A theory which I find to be very complete and practical enough to consecrate to modern day students. Rousseaus theory had three ideas by means ofout his writings that he used to prove his theory the nature of students, the purpose of educational activity, and what education should opine uniform (curriculum, methods, disciplines). I will also look at an heavens in which Rousseau stayed relatively neutral in, that is the nature of knowledge.The Nature of Students According to Rousseaus thoughts, the milieu determines whether a student is genuine or evil. I totally fit in with Rousseaus record that the environment determines whether kids are good or evil. It has been proven through and through longitudinal studies that identical twins, which have the same genetic abilities and talents, can be affected by differing environments, either nega tively or positively depending upon the separate situation. Rousseau also felt that most students have about the same intelligence. This statement by Rousseau to me is a moto that all teachers must have in dress to succeed. All students have the same intelligence it falls largely onto the teacher to find the way to help the student reach his or her potential for intelligence. Rousseau also mentioned that students should learn from experience and that students are exceptional imitators. I disembodied spirit that as a teacher one must provide galore(postnominal) different learning experiences to learn from. Most importantly, a teacher, by prospect a good example can and will greatly deviate a students behavior and overall performance.The purpose of Education The purpose of education according to Rousseau is to create good people who can live in a free society. Rousseau felt that the following characteristics make a good citizen self-sufficient, respectful, cari ng, modest, healthy, etc) so that they will become just what Rousseau wanted, good citizens who are adequate to live in a free society.What Education should look like As far as curriculum goes, Rousseau thought that you should teach entirely what a child wants to know and things that can be learned through experience. To me personally curriculum is indeed very important. I will be teaching K-12 PE/Health, thus the students ages will differ according to the level I am teaching.
