What are the characteristics of effective teaching?

Characteristics of Effective Teaching:

Carr explains that good teaching is not one that is sometimes effective or personally attractive, but one that develops the moral sense of the student . Strive for psychological and physical improvement and ultimately protect from psychological and physical damage.

 

Thus, teaching has a very limited meaning of training and in a broader sense it is called education. Thus, the traditional concept is the former in which this subject is of a weak nature, while there are also moral limitations compared to the latter concept. It is also said that natural habits and moral character are the proper means of good teaching which leads us towards such teaching which leads to accountability and responsibilities. This includes employees, parents and students. A close connection of teaching with education is necessary to complete our vision which is real education.

 A TEACHER'S AUTONOMY:

Autonomy or independence is one of the prominent qualities of professionalism. According to experts, the work of a professional teacher is very important and complex. Therefore, the professional should be free and independent in decision making, use of power and authority without any external pressure. According to another author, the most important goal that motivates a professional is the provision of professional options. Autonomy is one of the components of professionalism. Not only does it help in achieving one's goals in the field of decision-making but also influences one's control over work-related situations. Autonomy is not only acts against external pressure on the teacher but it is a source of strengthen them, which is useful for independent professionalism as a result it is a function against control organisation.

It proves that the nature and concept of professionalism is the level of respect and dignity of the profession, improvement of service quality, achievement of high standards, self-discipline and achievement of professional authority.

We can describe the concepts of good teaching according to different experts like this.

   EXPERTS SAYING:

Maxine Greene:

A teacher is only a teacher in teaching his freedom, just as a young individual is in his search.

William Arrow smith:

It is independence, self-maturity and experimentation. Which is indispensable for real teaching. Because it is believable for someone who hungers for freedom. It is almost for everyone. Teachers achieve self-fulfilment in the educational process. Green says they teach their students the meaning of freedom. A teacher should be busy telling his students about the meaning of life. If not self-fulfilling, the vision and wisdom of the past will quickly be destroyed.

Maxine Greene described it in a good way;

Where the teacher is entrusted with the task of teaching, problems arise because he is asked to act as to be informed, interested, independent and as an authoritative figure. While in a public place, a lot of pressure increases on him. Thus, he is not an artist, a scholar or a true scientist, he cannot be separated from his studio, his laboratory and still remains a member of a profession.

He should follow his project whenever and wherever he is; with students, peers, school board members and parents. He can not work alone.
