The Teaching Profession Teachers are the

The Teaching Profession ‘’Teachers. . . are the most responsible and important member of society because their professional efforts affect the fate of the future ’’. Helen Caldicott

Seven Philosophies of Education Essentialism Contends that teachers teach for learners to acquire basic knowledge, skills and values. Progressivism Progressivists accept the impermanence of life and the inevitability of change. ‘’ Change is the only thing that does not change’’.

Perennialism The perennialist curriculum is a universal one on the view that all human beings possess the same essential nature. It is heavy on the humanities, on general education. It is not a specialist curriculum but rather a general one. There is less emphasis on vocational and technical education. Existensialism The main concern of the existentialists is to ‘’help students understand appreciate themselves as unique individuals who accept complete responsibility for their thoughts, feelings and actions’’. ‘Existence precedes essence’.

Behaviorism Behaviorist schools are concerned with the modification and shaping of students behavior by providing for a favorable environment, since they believe that they are a product of environment. Linguistic Philosophy It develops communication skills of the learner, to articulate, to voice out the meaning and values of things that one obtains from his/her experience of life and the world is the very essence of man.

Constructivism To develop intrinsically motivated and independent learners adequately equipped with learning and skills for them to be able to construct knowledge and make meaning of them.

Formulating your philosophy of Education Philosophy is vital only when the questions are mine and so is the struggle towards answers. – W Luijpen • Your philosophy of education is your ‘’window’’ to the world and ‘’compass’’ in life. • Your philosophy of education is reflected in your dealings with students, colleagues, parents and administrators. Your attitude towards problems in life as a whole has an underlying philosophy. Philosophy of education includes our concept about: • The human person, the learner in particular and the educated person. • What is true and good and therefore must be taught. • How a learner must be taught in order to come close to the truth.

The Foundational Principles of Morality and You When you carry out acts of kindness you get a wonderful feeling inside. It is as though something inside your body responds and says, yes, this is how I ought to feel. - Unknown What is morality? Morality refers to ‘the quality of human acts by which we call them right or wrong, good or evil’’. Your human action is right when it conforms with the norm, rule or law of morality. (Panizo, 1964) What is meant of foundational moral principle: Came from a Latin word princeps which means a beginning a source. A principle is that on which something is based, founded, originated initiated.

What is natural law? It is the law “written in the hearts of men’’ (Romans 2: 15) For theists, it is ‘’man’s share in the Eternal Law of God’’ According to St. Thomas it is ‘’the light of the natural reason, whereby we discern what is good and what is evil…… It is the law that says. ‘’ Do good and avoid evil. ’’ THIS IS THE FUNDAMENTAL OF MORAL PRINCIPLE.

Teacher as a person of good moral character The preamble of our Code of Ethics of a Professional Teachers, ‘’ teachers are duly licensed professionals who possess dignity and reputation with high moral values as well as technical and professional competence’’. Four ways of describing good moral character according to one Christian author: 1. Being fully human 2. Being a loving person 3. Being a virtuous person 4. Being a morally mature person

Value Formation and You Education in values means the cultivation of affectivity, leading the educand through exposure to an experience of value and of the valuable –R Aquino Values Formation Values are Thought and Caught Values have cognitive affective and behavioral dimensions Includes formation In the cognitive, Affective and Behavioral aspects Training of intellect and will Virtuous versus vicious life and their effect on the will.

Max Scheler’s hierarchy of values Pleasure Values • The pleasant against the unpleasant • The agreeable against the disagreeable Vital Values • Values pertaining to the well being either of the individual or of the community Spiritual Values of the Holy • Values independent of the • Appear only in regard to whole sphere of the body objects intentionally given and of the environment as “ absolute objects”. • Grasped in spiritual acts of preferring, loving and hating

Teaching as your Vocation, Mission and Profession One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with guarantee to those who touched our human feelings…. Carl Jung Vocation – came from a Latin word ‘’vocare’’ which means call. Based on the etymology of the word, therefore means a call. Mission – came from the Latin word ‘’misio’’ which means ‘’to send’’.

Teaching Mission and/or Job? If you are doing it only because you are paid for it, it’s a job; If you are doing it not only for the pay but also for service it’s a mission If you quit because your boss or colleague criticized you, it’s a job; If you keep on teaching out of love, it’s a mission If you teach because it does not interfere with your other activities, it’s a job; If you are committed to teaching even if it means letting to go of other activities, it’s a mission If you quit because no one praises or thanks you for what you do, it’s a job; If you remain teaching even though nobody recognizes your efforts, it’s a mission. It is hard to get excited about a teaching job; Its almost impossible not to get excited about a mission If our concern is success it’s a job; If our concern is success plus faithfulness, it’s a mission An average school is filled by teachers doing their job; A great school is filled with teachers involved in a mission of teaching.

School and Community Relations It takes a village to raise a child A favorable partnership between the school and the community will yield bountiful harvest by way of establishing a conducive learning environment in the school and an orderly and civic minded citizenry in the community. The teachers are committed to spend time, effort and expertise in serving the academic needs and interests of community members while the community leadership and authorities are equally willing to provide assistance by way of material resources and learning center for the school population African Proverb Teachers and parents from the community can establish a close relationship that can pave the way towards a better understanding of the difficulties met in both locations and jointly suggesting positive solutions. The same holds true with the strengthening of values and attitudes of students through modeling by the teacher in school and by parents at home

Linkages and Networking with Organizations We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected by a thousand invisible threads And along these sympathetic fibers, our actions run as causes and return to us a results. Linkages or interconnections, with institutions functioning along the same mission are intended to serve members of both sides according to their respective needs, interests and objectives. Networking is a grid/web whose members actively demonstrate how they can work together to attain common objectives, undertake innovative practices and update members regarding breakthrough in different disciplines.

Chapter Three On becoming a Global Teacher Being world class does not mean going internationally and showing our best out there. Being world class is a passion and commitment to our profession; being world class is giving our best to teaching. Being world class starts right inside the classroom. – Conrado de Quiros Offers new curricular dimensions And possibilities, current, scientific And technological breakthroughs For completely new frontiers in education Poses variety of goals ranging from increased Knowledge about the people Of the world to resolutions of Global problems, from Increased influence in Foreign languages To the people Paves the way for borderless education to respond to the needs of educating children of the world they are entering. Education embraces today’s challenges as national borders are opened

Global Education and Global Teachers Benchmarking is learning the best from the past practices of the world’s best educational systems. GLOBAL EDUCATION UNESCO defines global education as a goal to become Aware of educational conditions or lack of it, in developing countries A curriculum that is international in scope which prepares today’s youth around the world to function in one world environment under teachers who are intellectually, professionally and humanistically prepares

The United Nations 6 goals to achieve some standards of education place in by 2015 worldwide 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Expand early childhood care education; Provide free and compulsory primary education for all; Promote learning and life skills for young and adult; Increase adult literacy by 50% Achieve gender parity by 2005, gender quality by 2015; Improve quality education

Global Teachers * is a competent teacher who is armed with enough skills, appropriate attitude and universal values to teach students with both time tested as well as modern technologies in education in any place in the world. *he or she is someone who thinks and acts both locally and globally with world –wide perspectives, right in the communities where he or she is situated. Qualities of a Global Filipino Teachers: • • • understands how this world is interconnected recognizes that the world has rich variety of ways of life has a vision of the future sees what the future would be for himself/herself and the students must be creative and innovative; must understand , respect and be tolerant of the diversity of cultures. must believe and take action for education that will sustain the future; must be able to facilitate digitally- mediated learning; must have depth of knowledge must possess good communication skills ( for Filipino teachers to be multi- lingual). must possess the competencies of a professional teacher as embodied in the National Competency. Based Standards for teachers ( NCBTS)

A Closer Look on the Education System of Selected Countries Benchmarking is learning the best from the best practices of the world’s best educational systems. • • • Multicultural education anchors on the diversity of learners. It enables teachers and educators to give value to the differences in prior knowledge, experiences of learners from diverse background and familiarity with students’ histories of diverse cultures Teachers should teach and students should learn about the values shared by virtually all cultural groups like justice, equality, compassion and charity among others. Kindergarten or pre school, now made compulsory by the virtue of Republic Act 10157, institutionalize universal kindergarten. For every exit level ( Grade 6, Grade 10, Grade 12 ) in educational structure in basic education , a student is certified through a diploma or a certificate completion. The certificate or diploma is one of the requirements for entrance to higher or tertiary education, which is available almost in almost all of the countries. With the implementation of K to 12 in the Philippines, the number of years in basic education is now equal to those of the countries in the world.

Multicultural Diversity: A challenge to Global Teachers All men are pretty much alike. It is only by culture that they are set apart. Confucius Teacher Exchange Programs enhance professional development and broaden perspectives The major goal of multicultural education is to transform the school so that the male and female students, exceptional learners, as well as students coming from diverse cultural, social –class, racial and ethnic groups will experience an equal opportunity to learn in school ( James Banks 1975 Sadker, 1991)

Multiculturalism has broadened and deepened our traditional curriculum into a wider range of accommodating cultures not of the teachers’ cultural alone. It has understood fundamental concepts which before were given less importance. Below are some basic assumptions that will enhance teacher development • • • No two learners are alike. Children in all classrooms are heterogeneous. Strategies that work with one leaner may not work with the another. Student’s background and experiences should be considered when teaching. Community members from various ethnic groups can assist teachers in facing issues of ethnic differences and similarities.

Broadening Teaching Perspectives: Teacher Exchange Programs We cannot hold the torch to light another ‘s path without brightening our own – Ben Sweetland To become a global teacher, you need to broaden your teaching perspectives. Expanding your experiences beyond the confines of your classroom to the wider learning environment of the world is one of the many avenues in order to achieve a global of competitiveness. Opportunities for this endeavor can be achieved through teacher exchange programs. See below programs that still exists: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Visiting International Faculty Program Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program Inter-African Teacher Exchanges Canadian Educators exchange Global Teachers Millennium Awards

Bringing the World Into the Classroom Through Educational Technology ‘’Digitally-mediated learning encompasses more than knowledge of new technology tools. Educators must be prepared to mediate learning through ever-evolving digital tools. Media is rapidly taking over teaching as a students learn from gaming , open source knowledge, virtual scenarios, avatars and Second Life. Educators must prepare for facilitative roles that can harness these opportunities to be best student advantage’’. Jane Bailey • Technology provides support to the solution of meaningful problems • Technology acts as a cognitive support. • Technology promotes collaboration as well as independent learning. (Goldman, S, Williams R. et al, 1999 )

Various technology programs that can be used to assist teachers to be innovative in teaching: • Stand Alone Program – Some programs are available as ‘’stand alone’’ software, videodisc, or CD-ROM media • Programs Available on the Internet – There are several programs available on the Internet from where the school can choose a site. Knowledge Integration Environment (KIE) • Information Databases – Many forms of print- based materials are now available in electronic form. The entire set of the National Geographic magazine is now on CD-ROM. Encarta and Grollier provide access to vast information. These resources take advantage of hypermedia. HYPERMEDIA: the ability to jump in a nonlinear fashion to related information, whether that information is text, graphic video or sound.

Basic Laws on the Professionalization of Teaching In recognition of the vital role of a teachers in nation building and as an incentives to raise the morale of the teachers, it is imperative that they be considered as professionals and teaching be recognized as a profession. On January 1, 1997 President decree 1006, entitled Providing for the Professionalization of Teachers, Regulating their Practice in the Philippines, otherwise known as the Decree Professionalizing Teaching was proclaimed. With this presidential proclamation, teaching became professionalized in the Philippines. The proclamation of PD 1006 was premised on the following: 1. ’’the institutions of the country have relied upon … teachers whose direct and continuing interaction with the young people and the children make then potent forces for the development of proper attitudes among the citizenry. 2. the tremendous growth of the teaching population, comprising in the civil service sector alone more than 300, 000 teachers deployed all over the country; 3. to insure that in the immediately and urgency of teacher recruitment, qualitative requirements are not overlooked, it has become necessary to regulate the teaching profession; 4. teaching requires a number of years of collegiate study, it is the only curse that is not yet considered a profession and 5. In recognition of the vital role of teachers in nation- building and as an incentive to raise the morale of teachers, it is imperative that they be considered as profession’’ ( PD 1006).
