Education Questions for Discussion: 2.What a Teacher should and should not know Teachers need to have an idea of the type of students that are coming into their classrooms but at the same time not base their entire assessment on the words of others. By this I mean that sometimes teachers talk, whether it is in the teachers lounge or through written comments. To me the most important aspect of assessing a situation is to be able to assess it through my own eyes. By listening to others speak badly about a kid or even good about them would make my assessment skills diminish and perhaps place an unfair label on a student. “Sometimes when I compare lists with another teacher’s, the teacher might comment on a student, sibling or parents.” (Airasian, pg. 33) This quote is bringing up the point of labeling a kid based on what their brothers and sisters may have done before. To me this might be the worst thing that could happen to a kid. While siblings most likely may act alike, a teacher can not have that perception already in their head.
