A thought about why boys wer'e not being represented in my
moderation group at the Canberra moderation group yesterday.
We talked about teachers, of course.
Reading _Who is the ideal teacher?
Sarah Arnon Nrit Reichel
• According to Sarah Arnon Nrit Reichel there is a debate as to wether the personal qualities of a teacher should be considered along with their pedagogical skill in delivering content.
• The comparison of beginning teachers and students of education is interesting as often there are similarities to the student teachers I have mentored and the young teachers who turn up at work trying to make a start.
• I like the historical references, Socrates, Plato, Friere etal. So many times we have Students coming in wangting to be the sage, all knowing art student.
• Lamn (1972,2000) cited in Sarah Arnon Nrit Reichel prototypes, we see this so often in schools, The teacher as a provider of Culture, this seems so very true and needed in my position as a boys art teacher in a non selective school.
• This is so true in my case.
• According to Musgrove and Taylor (1972) there are 5 characteristics, 1, personality, 2, discipline 3, teaching methods, 4, teacher behaviour in classroom, 5 order and organisation.
• My situation certainly supports this, however, due to the very nature of how disorganised our organisation can be, and the failure of leadership, the personality of the teacher puts all others out of perspective, I often tell the teachers in my care ; due to the challenges we face we often have to teach by a cult of personality and a will to power. The male machismo must be understood. And sometimes the culture becomes perverted and broken.
• cited Arieli (1995) Sarah Arnon Nrit Reichel 2007. Discusses the personal qualities of which teachers are received and judged. In my position it can not be more true, the Christian ethics used to control teacher behaviour.
• In every Independent school I have worked in has had to acknowledge incidents of paedophilia, due to current and ongoing legal actions against members of a religious order were previous members of teaching staff.
• In 2012 a Queensland teacher sacked for becoming pregnant outside of marriage.
• A good friend and college was asked to resign from an assistant principle position and leave the school as he was having an affair with a members of staff ex wife.
• A friend is currently fighting alcoholism, bulimia and self harming behaviour, she has asked her solicitor to stop the principle from exceeding their concern. She is failing professionally and is holding on to her job by a thread, If the school knew of her true situation they would remove her from the classroom.
• The teacher according to Feiman –nemser (1990) 5 orientations of teacher education.
Yes the teacher is the centre of the personal /traditional approach. The critical approach yes we critique and emancipate, technical knowledge, crafts man and technological exploration, Academic teacher as academic leader.
Yes we are great at those things, however, ou younger teachers lack some of the technical knowledge when it comes from art, they lack the craftsmanship due to the post-modern art practice.
The idea of educational academic leader is high within our organisation, either from social/ ambitious climbing or to get out of the organisation due to meretricious courses study etc, as a way of getting out of challenging situation, others stick to the old ways and becomes dinosaurs.
The idea of a social mission, this is one of the four principles for the ideal teacher,
1. Academic knowledge
2. social mission
3. development of the individual
4. critical thought of the personality at the centre of the situation.
• We are an Edmund rice school who mission is clear and central, however, those who are catholic and those are not still play a part.
• I am not catholic, however, my role is central, I want to do all those things, we stereotypically we think we do.
We talked about teachers, of course.
