Successful Strategies for Secondary Teachers

On the Exploding Beakers blog, the author writes a few questions to ask yourself as a teacher:

"When looking at ideas related to classroom reform, I ask myself the following questions:

- Who decides what the student will learn on a given day?

- Who decides how the student will learn?

- Who decides when the student is done learning?

 

People who answer these questions with "the teacher" are not moving in the same direction as me."

 

Very interesting.   I have a mild issue with the last question because I think that is a mix between teachers and students because teachers need to think about the end before they begin.  Still - good questions.
