Philosophy_Of_Education

Philosophy Of Education As a teacher new to the field, I have gained insight into issues and topics that are both controversial and straightforward. I would like to start out with why I became a teacher. The reason I chose to do well in school was due to the teachers that pushed me and encouraged me to do well. I didn\'t always enjoy the schoolwork, but each day was a pleasure to go to class and learn from the teacher. I have been told by others that I have helped in college science courses, that they wish they had a teacher that could help them understand concepts as well as I can. This gives me a feeling of accomplishment unlike any other. I consider education to be a combination of constructive and cognitive processes. I believe that learning is most valuable when students learn through construction of knowledge through interaction with the learning environment. One aspect of a teacher I do not enjoy as a student, or support as a future educator is over use of rote learning. Although this can be a tool used in learning, too many teachers simply spew facts out to students in students, teacher, must, learning, knowledge, information, concepts, through, student, relate, learn, consider, ways, valuable, teachers, motivated, important, find, extremely, try, traits, tool, take, support, success, succeed, skillful, rote, role, public, processes, prior, presented, philosophy, out
