Teaching Our Teachers to Teach
A SIECUS Study on Training and Preparation for HIV/AIDS Prevention and Sexuality Education (Published in the SIECUS Report, Volume 28, Number 2 - December 1995/January 1996) The teaching of comprehensive sexuality education from kindergarten through 12th grade begins with the proper training of the teachers. Too often, they do not have the skills, knowledge, or inclination to teach such courses. Few have received training in sexuality education, and even fewer have received certification as sexuality educators. Colleges and universities need to provide training in HIV/AIDS prevention and sexuality education for pre-service teachers, and must ensure that this training is comprehensive. To assess such efforts, SIECUS developed this study of undergraduate teacher preparation programs and their ability to provide sexuality education based on the six key concepts outlines in its Guidelines for Comprehensive Sexuality Education: Kindergarten - 12th Grade. These concepts are human development, relationships, personal skills, sexual behavior, sexual health, and society and culture.

VIII. Educate Graduate Students as Apprentice Teachers
Research universities must redesign graduate education to prepare students for teaching undergraduate students as well as for other professional roles.
Although graduate education is not at the center of our concern, clearly the metamorphosis of undergraduate education at research universities can not occur without suitable adjustments in the way that graduate students are prepared for their professional roles. Over the last several decades, universities have prolonged doctoral study, but they have not necessarily improved it by doing so. A graduate degree is a professional degree, intended both to furnish credentials and to prepare students for their life's work. But important aspects of their life's work have been neglected or ignored in their doctoral programs, to their detriment and that of the undergraduates they are expected to teach.
More than half of all doctoral students will seek employment in colleges and universities, 54 per cent according to the National Research Council's 1995 Survey of Earned Doctorates. The percentage of Ph.D.'s who become faculty varies broadly between fields, ranging from 83 per cent of humanities majors to 22 per cent of engineering majors. Most future faculty, however, cannot realistically expect to find positions at the 3 per cent of the nation's colleges and universities that are research universities. Yet graduate education severely neglects the professional goal of the majority of students who will become college professors, that is to say, teaching.

http://www.careers.ed.ac.uk/STUDENTS/Something_different/timeout.HTM
home students alternatives time out taking time out Many students and graduates consider the prospect of taking time out, before, during or after time at university. The benefits of taking time out are many, but two stand out:
  • It is probably easier to take off for a long period of time now rather than later in your career when you may have financial and other commitments; Many employers will regard this experience favourably (providing you can prove how you have gained some good experience and developed skills useful to a work environment).
What can you gain from taking time out?
  • An insight into different careers, helping you decide on your own career path; Work-related skills such as team working, communications, decision-making; A chance do something different, to live abroad, give something back and the opportunity to earn some extra money.
What sort of things can you do?
The list is endless, from taking part in a Tiger Census in India to working on Wall Street with a major investment bank. But remember it is worth thinking about what you want to do with your career when you come back. If you can plan something related to this you can really show that your time out was useful and improve your employment prospects. Here are a couple of ideas to get you started:
Teaching English abroad
For many people the idea of teaching abroad is very attractive. The chance to travel, see new places, try new things and get paid is appealing. For most people, gaining an English teaching qualification is the best starting place. TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificates are the most common and widely recognised. The courses available are both full and part-time, with full-time courses lasting between 4-6 weeks. Costs vary depending on the institution, but expect to pay around £600-1100. Once armed with a TEFL qualification you can then apply to language schools around the world.

BEATING THE NUMBERS GAME:
EFFECTIVE TEACHING IN LARGE CLASSES Richard M. Felder
Department of Chemical Engineering
North Carolina State University
Phil Wankat wrote somewhereand I agreethat anything you can do in a large class you can do better in a small one. When we find ourselves teaching a mob, it's easy to throw up our hands, conclude that there's no chance of getting any responsiveness out of 150 or 300 students in an auditorium, and spend 45 hours showing transparencies to the listless 60% who bother to show up from day to day. We can generate some interest by bringing demonstrations to class, but there are only so many hydrogen balloons we can explode and even they lose their impact after a while.
Fortunately, there are ways to make large classes almost as effective as their smaller counterparts. Without turning yourself inside out, you can get students actively involved, help them develop a sense of community, and give frequent homework assignments without killing yourself (or your teaching assistants) with impossible grading loads. Following are some ideas for doing all that.
In-Class Exercises
Lectures as a rule have little educational value. People learn by doing, not by watching and listening. If you're teaching a small class and you're good, you may be able to prod many of your students into activityget them asking and answering questions, discussing issues, challenging conclusions, laughing at your jokes, whatever. No matter how good you are, though, you probably won't be able to persuade most students to open their mouths in front of 120 classmatesit feels too risky for them. If you hope to move away from the wax museum-like aspect of most large lectures, you'll have to try a different approach.

Teaching Roles: Effective Teaching Skills
Return to Teaching Tips
General Principles
Effective teachers interact with students in a skillful manner. They are generally able to:
  • Establish a rapport with the class. Most students learn better when they are relaxed, confident and not feeling threatened. A comfortable atmosphere makes learning more enjoyable and encourages individuality and creativity. Nurture this atmosphere by remaining approachable, keeping our office hours, and encouraging students to visit during that time. An important thing to remember is that as an instructor our response and comments carry great weight. When a student asks a question, respond with respect. We need not spend five minutes answering an irrelevant question, but we can still be courteous by offering to discuss the matter with the student after class.
    Be open to student questions. Students appreciate it when we are open to questions and willing to answer questions. It is important, then, to encourage students to ask questions and help them to learn to frame questions that get the kinds of information they need in order to learn. If we watch our students instead of the chalkboard or our notes, we can often encourage questions simply by pausing whenever they appear confused and even by saying, "I see you have some questions, what are they?"
Enthusiasm
Enthusiasm comes with confidence, excitement about the subject, and pleasure in teaching. When students suggest that an instructor is enthusiastic, they often mean that "the teacher liked the subject and has a way of making us like it." Enthusiasm is conveyed in a variety of ways, including facial expressions and smiles, attentiveness to students, movement away from the podium or chalkboard, and eye contact which is long enough to observe students' expressions. It involves vocal inflections to emphasize and de-emphasize material, humor appropriate to the subject, a willingness to listen to students and to express interest in their contributions and a genuine concern for their learning.

    Tips for First Aid/CPR A New Year and the time to make resolutions. Have you made any this year and are you still keeping them, or are they already broken? Perhaps it is because you were unrealistic about the number of resolutions you made or the magnitude of the resolution. Very often in life we make unrealistic goals and then, when we do not achieve them we become stressed, and that stress can affect our health in a detrimental way. Whether it is a New Year's Resolution or a "to do" list, be realistic. Do things in bite sized pieces to ensure that you do achieve your goals and feel fulfilled rather than stressed! Tips for Pet First Aid Do you have lots of recent photographs of your pet? Are they easily identified through tags, tattoos and chips? We always hope we will never lose a pet, but if your pet went missing are they easily traced and would you be able to distribute a clear photograph of them to help people recognize the missing member of your family. Tips for Effective Communication Do you have an elderly relative or friend who is finding it harder to move around, or finding it hard to follow conversations because their hearing is not quite as sharp as it used to be? Perhaps the next time you are at a family gathering, take time to sit beside that person and have a "one on one" conversation. When people are having hearing difficulties, it is often hard to follow all the conversations going on at once, or to hear a conversation when there is a lot of background noise. Take time to focus on that one person and both of you can have an enjoyable time chatting.

How Effective Communication Can Enhance Teaching at the College Level. ERIC Digest.
THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC This Digest focuses on verbal and nonverbal communication behaviors in the college classroom. The Digest reviews research on the kinds of behaviors instructors (many of whom are graduate teaching assistants) exhibit, and students' reactions to and attitudes about those behaviors.
BACKGROUND
For better or worse, in most large colleges and universities graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) teach many of the introductory courses in a wide variety of academic disciplines. Administrators of academic departments which hire the GTAs often assume that the GTAs know both "what" to teach and "how" best to teach it. Most GTAs, however, enter graduate school with no teaching experience, and in many universities, they receive only the most cursory teacher training. Investigating how these instructors communicate with students and what students need and expect from the classroom communication environment may help in designing effective training programs and make GTAs and students more aware of the importance of classroom communication behaviors.

Proofs and Evidence:
Effectiveness of the Five Standards for Effective Pedegogy EFFECTIVE TEACHING
Document Series: Roland G. Tharp January, 1999 However, establishing direct proofs and evidence of the effectiveness of the Five Standards, taken in whole or in part, is a somewhat different enterprise that requires examining the field from a different angle. The purpose of this brief report is to assemble the various proofs and evidence, including both existence proof and evidence of effectiveness. Existence Proof Proof of Effectiveness The record for effectiveness comes from classrooms of several types. Some are largely unsupported efforts by individual teachers. Many more are from systematic programs of three general types. The first are hand-crafted small programs, often designed by educator/researcher teams, many in out-of-the-way villages or ghettos, in which schools of the common tradition were failing to teach local populations. Second, there are several long-term programs with systematic evaluation data, tending to focus on various combinations of the Five Standards, but not emphasizing them all. The third type includes the full Five Standard implementation, with evaluation/experimentation data of various depths. 1) Fine examples of individually created classrooms have been published, in Alaska by Lipka (1990), and in Florida by Lee and Fradd (1996a, 1996b), using substantial portions of the Five Standards. Classrooms with these standards foster higher student performance, compared to those without (Estrada, 1997).

96. Teaching Positions In Private Schools
Private schools are wonderful places in which to teach. make them some of the mosteffective schools in the doing what they are supposed to be doing teaching.
http://www.capenet.org/teach.html
Henry Adams once said, "A teacher affects eternity." Teachers in private schools profoundly appreciate the eternal dimensions of their work, for they nourish not only the minds but also the hearts and souls of their students. Serving in schools that emphasize a child's complete development, private school teachers have the privileged opportunity to transmit the core academic skills as well as the lessons that count most in life: lessons about spirituality, love, values, the wonder of creation, the purpose of existence. Can any work be more important? Indeed, the work of the private school teacher is of such significance, it is often regarded as a ministry and a calling, rather than just a job. Patty Quinn, a teacher at a private school in Maryland, described it this way: "I look at this job as a vocation, not as a career. I really think that the work that I'm doing has eternal consequences." ( Education Week , March 29, 2000) Private schools are wonderful places in which to teach. They offer caring, orderly, safe, and nurturing environments; they emphasize the education of the whole child; they insist on academic excellence; and they treat teachers as professionals, giving them considerable autonomy and independence in matters of instruction. The disciplined environment, rigorous curriculum, caring communities, and high expectations private schools provide make them some of the most effective schools in the country. Teachers in private schools can spend their time doing what they are supposed to be doing: teaching.

WASHINGTON, January 21, 2002Student achievement in reading, writing and English is higher among middle and high school students in response to skills their teachers possess. Researcher Judith Langer of the University at Albany, State University of New York and her team compare student performance in 25 schools, some of which demonstrated higher literacy achievement levels than their demographically comparable counterparts. Increased performance, Langer notes, is measured by students' engagement in thoughtful reading, writing and discussion, use of knowledge and skills in new situations, and performance on reading and writing assessment, including high-stakes testing. This study of English instruction examines both higher performing and more typical schools and appears in the winter issue of the American Educational Research Journal , published by the American Educational Research Association. Researchers examined underlying principles, beliefs, and approaches in individual classrooms instead of focusing on basic content and form of instruction.
