The truth about college teacher(1)
A recent TV news story told about a group of college processors from a nearby university who were hired by a local school system to help upgrade the teaching in the community’s public schools. The professors were to visit classrooms, analyze teachers’ skills, and then conduct workshops to help the teachers become more effective at their jobs. But, wholesale replica designer handbags, after the first round of workshops, the superintendent of schools decided to cancel the whole project. He fired the learned professors and sent them back to their ivory tower. The college professors, who were supposedly going to show the public school teachers how to be more effective, were themselves poor teachers how to be more effective, were themselves poor teachers, many college students could have predicted such a disastrous outcome. They know firsthand, that college teachers are strange. They know that professors often exhibit bizarre behaviors, relating to students in ways that make it difficult for students to stay awake, or if awake to learn.
One type of professor assumes, legitimately enough, wholesale designer handbags, that her function is to pass on to students that vast store of knowledge she has acquired, but because the “knowledgeable one” regards herself as an expert and her students as the ignorant masses, she adopts an elitist approach that sabotages learning. The knowledgeable onw enters a lecture hall hith a self important air, walks to the podium, places her yellowed with age notes on the stand, and begins her lecture at the exact second the class is officially scheduled to begin, there can be a blizzard or hurricane raging ousaide the lecture hall; students can be running through freezing rain and howling winds to get to class on time. Will the knowledgeable one wait for them to arrive before beginning her lecture? Probably not. The knowledgeable one’s time is precious. She’s there, set to begin, and that’s what matters.
Once time is precious. She’s there, set to begin, and that’s what matters.
Once the monologue begins, the knowledgeable one drones on and on. The knowledgeable one is a fact person. She may be the history prof who can diagram all the common biological molecules, wholesale coach handbags, the accounting prof who enumerates every clause of the federal tax form. Oblivious to students’ tired eyes and stifled yawns, the knowledgeable one delivers her monologue, dispensing one dry fact after another. The only advantage to being on the receiving end of this boring monologue is that students do not have to worry about being called on to question a point or provide an opinion; the knowledgeable one is not willing to give up one minute of her time by giving students a voice.
