Adopting a Reflective Approach to Professional Development

By Nasreddine Mohamed Sarsar

Abstract

The bulk of literature about education places enhancing teacher professionalism at the core of any educational improvement. In fact, researchers in the field of education have premised their arguments on the assumption that raising students levels of performance necessitates promoting the professional growth of teachers. It is no wonder, then, that professional developers have designed and implemented numerous PD programs in an effort to bring about positive educational change and improvement. It is incontrovertibly true that the success of any professional development endeavor depends greatly on the willingness and readiness of the target participants, teachers.

Since most, if not all, professional development programs in the context where I work are "grounded in a disease model" (Clark, 1992: 79), almost all the teachers flinch at their mention and show great reluctance to get involved. I side with Diaz-Maggioli (2004) to admit that "the term "professional development day conjures only images of coffee breaks, consultants in elegant outfits, and schools barren of kids" (p. 1). This negative attitude towards professional development is caused by the assumption "that teachers need to be forced into developing [and that they] have deficits in knowledge and skill that can be fixed by training" (Clark, 1992: 79). Operating on this premise, professional developers find it compelling to adopt a technical- rational approach to professional development cramming teachers with external and ready-made solutions and ignoring their reflective practice.

In this research paper, I argue that professional development based on such a premise and such an approach would hardly yield any positive outcomes. Drawing on the work of Dewey (1933) and Schön (1983 and 1987), the notion of the teacher as a reflective practitioner will be brought into the topic in an endeavor to encourage teachers to slot in reflection into their daily teaching practice. My belief is that by doing so, teachers will adopt a self-directed professional development approach that will get them easily involved in the process of lifelong learning.

Communicating, Learning how to Read and Culture:

Three Almost ‘Absent’ Elements in Iranian English Textbooks

 

Mohammad S. Sanati Far (MA in TEFL)

Key Words: communicating, syllabus, curriculum, teaching methods, presentations

   Abstract

In this article, a critical look has been shed on the content of the Iranian high school English textbooks. Communicating, learning how to read and culture as claimed and articulated in the ELT Curriculum of Iran’s Ministry of Education- Textbook Design and Authorship Section (1383 Version) as three main communicative goals underlying textbooks are three elements which can hardly be seen throughout the book. To prove this absence, the contents of the textbooks which theoretically claim to be communicative were checked against the details of the ELT Curriculum of Iranian Ministry of Education’s Textbook Design and Authorship Bureau. The inefficient output of English language learning in schools is also a clear evidence.

Happy Teacher's Day

 A Teacher for All Seasons

A teacher is like Spring,
Who nurtures new green sprouts,
Encourages and leads them,
Whenever they have doubts.

A teacher is like Summer,
Whose sunny temperament
Makes studying a pleasure,
Preventing discontent.

A teacher is like Fall,
With methods crisp and clear,
Lessons of bright colors
And a happy atmosphere.

A teacher is like Winter,
While it’s snowing hard outside,
Keeping students comfortable,
As a warm and helpful guide.

Teacher, you do all these things,
With a pleasant attitude;
You’re a teacher for all seasons,
And you have my gratitude!

 وقتی زندگی چیز زیادی به شما نمی دهد، بخاطر این است كه شما چیز زیادی از آن نخواسته اید...

در اندیشه آنچه كرده ای مباش، در اندیشه آنچه نكرده ای باش...

امروز، اولین روز از بقیة عمر شماست...

برای كسی كه آهسته و پیوسته می رود، هیچ راهی دور نیست...

امید، درمانی است كه شفا نمی دهد، ولی كمك می كند تا درد را تحمل كنیم...

بجای آنكه به تاریكی لعنت فرستید، یك شمع روشن كنید!

آنچه شما درباره خود فكرمی كنید، بسیار مهمتر از اندیشه هایی است كه دیگران درباره شما دارند...

 هركس، آنچه را كه دلش خواست بگوید، آنچه را كه دلش نمی خواهد می شنود...

 اگر هرروز راهت را عوض كنی، هرگز به مقصد نخواهی رسید...

صاحب اراده، فقط پیش مرگ زانو می زند، وآن هم در تمام عمر، بیش از یك مرتبه نیست...

وقتی شخصی گمان كرد كه دیگر احتیاجی به پیشرفت ندارد، باید تابوت خود را آماده كند !

كسانی كه در انتظار زمان نشسته اند، آنرا از دست خواهند داد...

كسی كه در آفتاب زحمت كشیده، حق دارد در سایه استراحت كند !

بهتر است دوباره سئوال كنی، تا اینكه یكبار راه را اشتباه بروی !!!

آنقدر شكست خوردن را تجربه كنید تا راه شكست دادن را بیاموزید...

اگر خود را برای آینده آماده نسازید، بزودی متوجه خواهید شد كه متعلق به گذشته هستید...

خودتان را به زحمت نیندازید كه از معاصران یا پیشینیان بهتر گردید، سعی كنید از خودتان بهتر شوید ...

خداوند به هر پرنده ای دانه ای میدهد، ولی آن را داخل لانه اش نمیاندازد !

درباره درخت، بر اساس میوه اش قضاوت كنید، نه بر اساس برگهایش !

انسان هیچ وقت بیشتر از آن موقع خود را گول نمیزند كه خیال میكند دیگران را فریب داده است !!!

كسی كه دوبار از روی یك سنگ بلغزد، شایسته است كه هر دو پایش بشكند !!!

هركه با بدان نشیند، اگر طبیعت ایشان را هم نگیرد، به طریقت ایشان متهم گردد ...

كسی كه به امید شانس نشسته باشد، سالها قبل مرده است !

اگر جلوی اشتباهات خود را نگیرید، آنها جلوی شما را خواهند گرفت !!!

 اینكه ما گمان میكنیم بعضی چیزها محال است، بیشتر برای آن است كه برای خود عذری آورده باشیم ...

Bill Gates

 Every Body knows that Bill Gates is the cofounder of one of the most famous brands in the computer industry. Bill Gates is one of the richest men in the world and has the number ONE position for many years.

Gates was born and grew up in Seattle, Washington USA. His father, William H. Gates was a Seattle attorney and his mother, Mary Maxwell Gates was a school teacher. Gates had two sisters. Bill Gates started studying at Harvard University in 1973. He met Paul Allen, his partner, there. Gates and Allen worked on a version of the programming language.

Gates suggested that there should be a computer on every office desk and in every home. In 1975, the company Micro-soft was formed. Microsoft helped to make the computer easier to use with its developed software, and made it a commercial success. The success of Microsoft began with the MS-DOS computer operating system. 

It is believed that his richness helped him to create one of the world’s largest charitable foundations. The Bill and his wife Melinda Gates Foundation has an endowment of more than $28 billion, with donations totaling more than $1 billion every year. The foundation was formed in 2000.

Bill Gates continues to play a very active role in the Microsoft Company, but it is thought that he has handed over the position to Steve Ballmer. Gates now holds the positions of “Chairman” and “Chief Software Architect”. He plans to have fewer responsibilities at Microsoft and will finally devote all his time to the Foundation.

In 2006, Warren Buffett, the second richest man in the world, donated much of his vast money to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
