Slide 3: Philosophy of Classroom Management
Developing ideas about classroom management that are reflective of one’s dispositions, attitudes, goals, and objectives helps to guide teaching, classroom management, treatment of children, and other characteristics of an effective teacher
Slide 4: What is A Philosophy?
← The word philosophy comes from “philo” meaning “love” and “sophos” meaning “love of wisdom or teaching”.
← A teaching philosophy is a statement of a systematic and critical rationale that focuses on the important components defining teaching and learning in a particular discipline or content.
← More simply, it is why you do what you do. (Schonwetter, Dieter J., Sokal, L., Friesen, M. and Taylor, K. L.,(2002).
Slide 5: Philosophy of Teaching
Generally, a philosophy of teaching should include the following components:
← Definition of teaching
← Definition of learning
← View of the learner
← Goals and expectations of the student-teacher relationship
← Discussion of teaching methods
← Discussion of evaluation (Schonwetter et al, 2002).
Slide 6: Activity
Activity
1. In two minutes, brainstorm personal dispositions or beliefs for working with students. Examples might include: Every student deserves a safe and secure learning environment.
2. After brainstorming ideas, class members share ideas. Encourage students to “borrow” ideas that reflect important ideas they left off their own list.
3. After all students have had an opportunity to share brainstorming ideas, have students look at the list and try to identify two or three main themes reflected in the list. Examples might include a motivating and encouraging environment, appreciation of individual differences, or an organized learning environment.
Slide 7: Activity (continued)
4. Using these themes from the brainstorming list, organize each of the ideas into one of the themes.
5. Develop the two or three important themes that will have the most positive impact on the classroom, learning, and students.
6. Create a draft of a personal philosophy.
7. Share the draft with two or three other members of the class and discuss ideas that are unclear or are underdeveloped.
8. Complete a final draft and include in the classroom management plan notebook.
