Teaching Teaching & Understanding Understanding (1/3)

[erikis894]

Outstanding video. .teaching is so cool

[POSITIVELYMADUK1]

what this video proves is that teaching is not a one way process - it has to take into account the various learning approaches of the students

[kin9karn4ge]

this is all that is wrong with people today, sterotypes is what makes the massive divide in the first place then they are further reinforcing sterotypes e.g. the bad student looks bad because hes smoking, their building up a corrupt image. but usful video for my assignement

Funny how "Hallelujah" is used in conjunction with the word "Understanding". Just food for thought. Not sure I agree with the message in this video either.

[aristokratez]

This wasn't convincing at all. Using stereo-types won't work in this context since different people learn differently and a simple one-size-fits all approach like this will obviously not work. I was especially amused about the so called "3 levels of teaching" they use to characterize and label "good" and "bad" teaching truly revealing the simple underlying assumptions about learning that has motivated this "project" --> 1) That we KNOW how ALL types of people learn. - Completely subjective!

Please be aware-there are several misleading assumptions inside!

its NOT "Susan's" job to help "Robert"! he has different goals so needs different activation! Woman are not the smart part of this bad student-good student world!

loved the Haleluja! LOL

Love this video. I think the voice over is supposed to be "boring"...it's ironic and amusing.

[novaguy1968]

If that's what the filter looks like, I'd hate to see his teeth.

[snakelam26]

Nice video but the voice over is a bit boring...

A strategic Robert will probably earn a better living than an academic Susan. If students, after considered their goals, want to be a Robert instead of a Susan, they have the right to be Roberts. Teachers shouldn't set out to covert Roberts into Susans - if the students themselves have decided to be otherwise. This is at the university level. Respect your students - they are adults too. Not every university student wants to end up like their university teachers.

It's surely not about converting the attitude of the students? The whole point of the video is that it's as much to with the way the teacher presents information (in an interactive fashion), but mostly about how the entire course is structured, that the learning outcomes are embedded within everything that is portrayed, and then assessed. The trick is to be a sufficiently skilled and engaging teacher such that students are motived, with commensurately coherent, intelligent course design.

Muy bonito video;

Aquí podemos observar las dos diferentes actitudes que muestran los estudiantes. Ahora bien, ¿Cómo cambiar una actitud como la de Robert a una como la de Susan? Las personas, los adolescentes poseen diferentes objetivos en la vida. ¿Podríamos o deberíamos unificarlas a uno académico a través de la enseñanza de niveles avanzados de aprendizaje?

A very good video;

Here we can observe so well the two different attitudes of the students, now; How to convert an attitude like Robert's to a Susan's one?

Different people, different teenagers have so many distinctive goals in the life..... Could or should we unify them to an academic purpose by teaching them to employ higher learning process?
