The Observed Information: Questio 1. Which of the twelve attributes is the highest among the teachers? Intelligence, Resourcefulness, Comion, Buoyancy, Objectiveness, Self-Motivation, Pleasantness, Refinement, Cooperativeness and Reliability 2. Which of the twelve attributes is the lowest among the teachers? Emotional Stability and Self Confidence.
3. How many teachers are low in emotional stability?
There are two (2) teachers who are low in Emotional Stability. According to the definition of being an emotional stable, a teacher must have an ability to be calm under pressure, cheerful and optimistic and level headed. However, in the tallied data from the interview, there are two teachers who are low in this quality. Maybe one reason of being low in emotional stability is the stress in their environment that should be carried out because being a teacher is a satisfaction within our soul. 4. How many teachers are high in comion? There are nine (9) teachers who are high in comion. Being a teacher, you must love all areas under the sun about teaching; your workplace, co-teachers and mostly, your students. As a teacher, you must be comionate about your work; put yourself in your student’s situation and make teaching as your ion to realize your mission as teacher. 5. What six attributes are found to be strong among the teachers? According to the tallied scores, Objectiveness got the highest average gained. It was seconded by three personal attributes; Reliability, Comion and Buoyancy. Resourcefulness came third. 6. What six attributes are found to be weak among the teachers? The first attribute that founded to be weak among the teachers is Emotional Stability and Self Confidence. Pleasantness, Self-motivation and Cooperativeness came second. 7. What interesting observations can you spot from the data that were not asked? There are last two attributes founded to be neutral in the tallied scores. That’s why I only included five attributes at each question. It is Intelligence and refinement. It is the neutral part that is common to every teacher that I interviewed. I think these attributes needs some improvement because it is also being neglected.
My Reflections 1. Why are some teachers reported to have bumped a learner’s head on the wall or made the child swallow scratch paper or pencil filings? What attribute do you think is low for this teacher? For me, they are low in Emotional stability, Comion, Intelligence and Objectiveness.
I included Emotional Stability and Comion because these are the attributes that are really low in some teachers in the field. I think some teachers do negative things to students because their emotion is unstable. They tend to punish their students who are not paying attention in the class discussion. They are also low in Comion. In the first place, they already forgot the rule of Ethics of being a teacher. I include Intelligence because this quality is also a big advantage for you to be professional enough for not hurting your students. If you are intelligent, you know that it is just a waste of time being a nightmare for every learner and be an angel instead and let them achieve their dreams. Lastly, Objectiveness, some teachers have no objectives in class. It is like teaching for a test, not for their future. If you have your objectives, you’ll avoid being bad to every student because you are concerned with the process and the product of the holistic development of your students. Before, there are so many issues and problems about this happening in the learner’s environment. However, in due of some reasons, hurting a student mentally and physically is already punishable by law. 2. Why do you think some teachers are better loved by the students than others? For the reason that, some teachers are very lovable and knows how to appreciate the differences among students. A teacher who prepare students for their future not for their past. And a teacher that would affect his students eternally. As a student, I also have my favorite teachers, why? Because they saved me in the absence of learning. They gave me values and attitude towards the importance of knowledge and learning as well. Above all. A great thank to my great teacher. My Creator. 3. If you were to choose, which personal attributes should all teachers possess? Why? a. Comion. As a teacher, you must be comionate. You must put yourself in your student’s shoes. Know what they feel and love your profession even if you’re having a hard time with your students because your concern is their future not your salary. b. Emotional Stability. Being emotional stable is being concern enough about your profession. You must know how to handle yourself in difficult times. Don’t blame your mistake in your students because sometimes, your students don’t know your problem unless you say it to them. You must know your students. Even if you encounter problems, you must know how to get rid of it so that your class discussion won’t be distracted. c. Self-Confidence. Every teacher needs to express every lesson directly without any hesitations, Being confident is you know how to accept what you don’t know and don’t push yourself to be intelligent. What’s best is your student’s know you and who you are for them.
d. Resourcefulness. To utilize used things and be thrifty. If you are a resourceful teacher you can influence not just your co-teachers, but also your students. In addition, if you show this quality to your students, they could apply this to their real life. e. Fairness. It is the best or needed quality in the learning environment of being a teacher. Some teachers really doesn’t understand individual differences. Some have favouritism and doesn’t give importance for students who are having difficulty learning things which is wrong because they are the students who most need importance. You must be fair to everyone. f.
Intelligence. You must be intelligent because you know how to integrate every lesson to make it easy to understand for your students.
My Affirmed Concepts After reflecting on this episode and recalling my previous subjects, I have realized that there are several concepts in the teaching profession about personal attributes. I, learning that has been affirmed and confirmed, examples of which are given below:
I learned that every personal attributes of a teacher greatly affects the classroom and the student’s learning. I also realized that teachers really are the pioneers or the pillars rather of the student’s holistic development. Achieving those qualities is not easy. You need to have an experience first before you can have the glance of the real problem. I can one mistake that I’ve committed this college. I really regret that. In our humanities subject, I am acting to be more intelligent than my professor. Yes, Arts is really my forte, and I think he hasn’t read about what his talking all the time. However, I know that It was really wrong now. I realized that, what if, I am in his situation and my student is trying to be like me too? It’s really hard. So to avoid that scenario in the real learning environment, try to possess all the qualities and not be happy with that achievement you became but be happy that you realized that teaching is the key to success.
My Future Application
As a future teacher, I will be a role model and would do everything that I could do to help them learn & understand every lesson. However, I think that it will not be easy for me to achieve my philosophy because in the real scenario, It’s hard to realize. But I’ll continue studying not just to achieve my dreams but my student’s also. When I had my micro demo teaching, It was just an hour but it turns out to be the rest of my life. I really enjoyed it. Even if they’re not in the field of music, they showed me faces of students who are willing to participate and eager to learn about the East Asian Music. I will not forget that class because I realized that being creative has it’s purpose; It’s to be shared. I’ll practice every day just to have these positive attributes of a teacher, because if I may not be the Best teacher for them, at least, I’m better and confident enough that with me, their mind, soul and body will not be hungry and be satisfied forever.
