The Role of the Teacher

Teachers' roles are key components of effective peer learning. These roles
can be very complex and include such varied roles as those of community
builder, preparing of learning activities, model of problem solving and other
intellectual skills, coordinator of activities, and evaluator of students' work.
All of these roles contribute to the promotion of effective group processes.
Different peer learning activities require different stances with respect to
students, tasks, and outcomes. Teachers must take into account both the
social context in which learning occurs and the cognitive processes that are
either supported or hindered in that context. They need to analyze their
classrooms to determine whether there may be obstacles that limit the
cognitive opportunities available to students or prevent them from making
use of those opportunities.
 Teaching is a career that provides challenges,
excitement, personal reward and a chance to encourage
and support others to achieve their goals. Good teachers
know that by listening to and working with colleagues,
parents, other professionals and community members that
they can inspire students and improve their learning.
Teachers dominate and monopolize the conversational floor
in classrooms at every stage of the educational system,
taking longer and more frequent turns than student
participants.

low-profile classroom control. Which is a
low-profile classroom technique?

A. Note to parents
B. After-school detention
C. Withdrawal of privileges
D. Raising the pitch of the voice
 Answer: C Withdrawal of privileges

Low-profile classroom control refers to coping strategies used by

effective teachers to stop misbehavior without disrupting the flow of
a lesson. Classroom management is the process teachers use to
ensuring that classroom lessons run smoothly without disruptive
behavior from students compromising the delivery of instruction. It
includes the prevention of disruptive behavior preemptively, as well
as effectively responding to it after it happens. Such disruptions may
range from normal peer conflict to more severe disturbances of the
social class dynamics, such as bullying among students, which
make it impossible for the affected students to concentrate on their
schoolwork and result in a significant deterioration of their school
performance.
Schools can withdraw student privileges as a
consequence of breaching classroom or school
behavioral standards. The specific privileges withdrawn
will vary between schools and even students at the
same school; however, they may include things such as
representing the school at inter-school sports or
attendance at a school event.
 7 Habits of Highly Effective Classroom Management

- Have a Plan.
- Involve Your students.
- Respect Your students.
- Keep It Fair.

A. Idealism C. Experimentalism C.

B. Existentialism D. Realism
 Answer: B Existentialism

Existentialism is a philosophical view that man is

responsible for making his own nature. It lays

personal commitment. It emerges to challenge and
even abandon the purely objective, quantitative and
deterministic analysis. It urges a concern for
human values, quality, subjectivity and spirituality.
Existentialism is a philosophy of human nature that
identifies people as having free will to determine the
course of their lives. It emphasizes individual
responsibility to create meaning rather than relying on
a higher power or religion to determine what is
important, valuable, or morally right.

15. What are the roles of the teacher and students in a
21st century classroom?

A. Teachers are the center of learning; students passive

B. Teachers are disciplinarians; students get yelled at
C. Teachers are facilitators; learning is student
centered and led
D. Teachers assign grades; students complete
worksheets
 Answer: C

The teacher role as a facilitator is integral in every

teaching act and practice inside and outside the
classroom (the case of online and blended
learning). Because learning is a complex cognitive
process, it requires an individual’s attention,
motivation, efforts, and resilience against different
bumps.
 They educate generations and contribute to the
prosperity of a nation. They are called educators,
instructors, coaches, and trainers, but are often
known as Teachers. Yet, in 21st-century education,
teaching is not just a matter of imparting
information and assessing students’ work. It is more
about cultivating a learning environment where
students are not only engaged but also empowered.
So, the teacher role has gone beyond teaching.
