Principles of Teaching

Tuesday, June 14, 2005

Thank You For Joining Me!

This is my first blog, a requirement for the Principles of Teaching class that I am taking at Bloomsburg University in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania. Please help me with any comments or questions that you have for me or for other teachers. Any experienced teachers out there? I would love your recommendations! Thanks for blogging with me! My question for today is: What is your style of classroom management?

    Teaching

    Hello Jes

    Thanks for leaving your blog open to comments.

    I always like to live a little "tidbit" of information, hopefully helpful and hopefully something that will make you think - and act.

    This one is short and sweet, and I'll bet you haven't done (or done recently ), but after looking at your blog I'm pretty sure you will at least take some action, because you seem like a smart person.

    Set New Goals.

    Do you have any old ones written down? Have you set life goals?

    Most people don't.

    You will if you use some of the FREE information at Lifetime Goals

    Have A Happy New Year!

    I’m about to make you think.
    It might be painful.

    Have you done anything earth shattering lately?

    Read anything that really sets your mind on fire with a passion to do good?

    How about doing something important for yourself?

    Have you?

    Do you know without a doubt where you will be living a few years from now, what you will be doing?

    Got a Plan?

    Know how to get there?

    You gotta have goals!

    I enjoy blog surfing and when I find one that makes me think a bit I like to leave a little nuget behind that may help the writer.

    What will you do with this “nugget”? Ignore it or use it…

    Here’s yours;

    Write Goals Down

    This crystallizes your goals and gives them more force. In writing your goals down, you are better able to keep up with your scheduled tasks for each accomplishment. It also helps you to remember each task that needs to be done and allows you to check them off as they are accomplished.

    Basically, you can better keep track of what you are doing so as not to repeat yourself unnecessarily.

    Set lifetime goals. At least have an idea of what you want to accomplish with your life.

    Keep the low-level goals you are working towards small and easy to achieve. If a goal is too large, then it can seem that you are not making progress towards it.

    Keeping goals small and incremental allows you more opportunities for reward. Derive today's goals from larger ones. It is a great way to accomplish your goals.

    Set Performance Goals, not outcome goals

    You should take care to set goals over which you have as much control as possible. There is nothing more dispiriting than failing to achieve a personal goal for reasons that are beyond your control.

    These could be bad business environments, poor judging, bad weather, injury, or just plain bad luck. If you base your goals on personal your performance, then you can keep control over the achievement of your goals and get satisfaction from achieving them.

    Set Realistic Goals. It is important to set goals that you can achieve.

    All sorts of people (parents, media, and society) can set unrealistic goals for you which is almost a guarantee of failure. They will often do this in ignorance of your own desires and ambitions or flat out disinterest.

    Alternatively you may be naive in setting very high goals. You might not appreciate either the obstacles in the way, or understand quite how many skills you must master to achieve a particular level of performance.

    By being realistic you are increasing your chances of success.

    Do not set your goals to low.

    Just as it is important not to set goals unrealistically high; do not set them too low.

    People tend to do this where they are afraid of failure or where they simply don’t want to do anything.

    You should set goals so that they are slightly out of your immediate grasp, but not so far that there is no hope of achieving them. No one will put serious effort into achieving a goal that they believe is unattainable.

    However, remember that your belief that a goal is unrealistic may be incorrect. If this could be the case, you can to change this belief by using imagery effectively.

    Good Luck and Happy Goal Setting!
