As what we know, teacher always had influence directly towards the success of a student or the mind set of a student. But today i will try to jump out from the traditional mindset. Our discussion here today is how a student influence a teacher life.
I will put in my comment on the different type of teaching and the different type of attitude in teaching will effect how many we can earn from the teaching process.
Different type of teaching
- 1 ways teaching
- Example teaching to a 8 years old boy, it is 1 way teaching because 8 years old boy don't give any comment or complicated question.
- In 1 way teaching the student is always ready to learn but teacher is not ready to learn.
- Teacher have the egoism that ready to teach but not ready to learn.
- 2 ways teaching
- Example teaching to a college student, student tend to have independent thinking and have better knowledge in challenge the information that they get from the teacher.
- Teacher will have a lot of chance to get some question or idea that required them to explore for additional information.
- In 2 ways teaching student create chances for the teacher to think and learn something new.
Attitude Towards teaching and learning process
- Open minded is important in the teaching process so that you can jump out from the traditional ways of education.
- Humble is another important attitude towards learning and teaching process, do not let the ego take over.
Question come when i tell people teacher should learn from student, why?
We are leaving industrial age and jumping into information age. In the information age, our knowledge and education we get from our school would not last more than 5 years, if within 5 years you are not willing to learn and accept new thing will make you live in the stone age. Biggest change in the 2 age is:-
- Industrial Age
- Company have the pension that pay for your retirement age
- Study hard, join big company and save as much as you can in the bank (cause bank is paying 12% to 18% interest to the saver)
- Bank loan only to the company, worker loan is from the company, which make them become worker forever
- Media is control by the government
- Worker is staying in the factory and estate
- Government promise a lot of medical and retirement care to the citizens
- Teacher is consider as highest class category citizens, citizens respect their teacher like how they respect the priest and monk
- Information Age
- Company do not required to pay for your retirement age
- Bank paying 0% to 5% interest but inflation rate average around 7% for the develop country
- Individual can easily get loan from the bank, with credit card they can get cash through bank machine. Personal loan approve within 1 hours and so on.
- Boom of .com era create thousand millionaire overnight.
- .com era also create thousand business collapse. (traditional business)
- Media is control by the public, with the technology and convenient of internet access worldwide, the news can spread within minute towards global.
- Money had become a very complicated that cause million having a live harder than industrial age worker
- Government paying their war debt cost the deficit grow bigger and bigger, promise they had in industrial age is realize with adding debt by print more money
- Thousand teacher do not earn enough had to go back to school to teach after 2, 3 years of retirement, they have to work with the salary lower than the normal teacher
Today we saw a lot of youngster age below 25 had make their 1st million dollar, while there are more adult age above 50 still struggle in their financial, because the education that they receive had been lack far far behind, just like the stone age. Youngster who make million understand that with few clicks on their smart phone will make them million. Their curiosity and willing to accept something new, make their life much easier with the technology and changes around them.
Adult who do not willing to put down their ego and learn something new make their life difficult. The mind set of industrial age keep them set back, they still focus and involve more in politic and waiting for the government to support for their retirement age. Medical and welfare.
In traditional teacher do not have chance to learn from the student, but today we are different, student is the source to effect and create a successful teacher, not only in teaching but also in their personal life. It do not only apply to teacher but it apply to all professional, open up the mind and learn more from the others. Even the boss need to learn from their staff, that is the reason some company prefer fresh graduate, cause they want to learn from the new blood, new idea & new energy to push the team.
