82. CTE: Teaching Tips
    Teaching Tips. writing a Teaching Philosophy Statement. Prepared by Lee Haugen Center for Teaching Excellence, Iowa State University March, 1998.  
    http://www.cte.iastate.edu/tips/philosophy.html
    
    Extractions: The Center for Teaching and Learning at the University fo Texas at El paso has very useful information about Teaching Philosphy statements at http://www2.utep.edu/~allchin/cetal/writetps.htm It is important to start by describing where you want to end. In other words, what are your objectives as a teacher? The rest of your philosophy statement should support these objectives which should be achievable and relevant to your teaching responsibilities; avoid vague or overly grandiose statements. On the other hand, you will want to demonstrate that you strive for more than mediocrity or only nuts-and-bolts transference of facts. These are questions that will require some thought and you will probably benefit from discussing them with other faculty in your department. Some people can sit down and bang out a paragraph or two in a short time but most of us become more thoughtful about the "big" questions when we bounce them off of our colleagues, consider their responses, re-evaluate our positions, revise, talk some more, etc. Your statement of objectives as a teacher is the most important part of your teaching philosophy and you should take some time with it. And if you take it seriously, you will probably come back to this statement to revise or add to it. Think of it as a work in progress.

90. Teaching Critical Thinking
    Professor Christian Jernstedt s Psych 22 Learning about Learning Additional Ideas for Teaching Critical Thinking Through writing Developing Critical  
    http://www.dartmouth.edu/~compose/faculty/pedagogies/thinking.html
    
    Extractions: When developing the courses that we teach, most of us are concerned with designing a course that will sharpen our students' thinking skills. In part, we accomplish this aim by presenting our students with interesting reading material, lectures, and class discussions. As students read more and hear more, we reason, they will gain knowledge and discover new contexts for their ideas. They will also (we hope) come to think more critically. However, reading assignments and lectures by themselves do not insure that our students will improve their critical thinking skills. Many students read and listen passively, simply absorbing information. They do not reliably challenge the thinking of the writers they are reading or of the professors they are listening to. Nor do they reliably use the material they read to challenge their own ideas. However, when students write, they cannot remain passive players in the learning game. Even the simplest writing task, such as a summary of an article, requires that students make important critical choices: What information is most important to this argument? What might be left out? More complex writing assignments ask students to make more difficult choices about a topic choices that eventually bring them to the questions: "What is it that I think about this subject? How did I arrive at what I think? What are my assumptions, and are they valid? How can I work with facts, observations, inferences, and so on, in order to convince others of what I think?"

    Extractions: How to teach a child to write Teaching a child to write a journal shows them about writing and preserves family memories. I love to write. I love to read what other people write. Journals have been part of my life forever. Of course I wanted my children to write their own journals, even before they could hold a pencil. When they were very young, the children told me or their grandmother their day's story to write into the family journal. As they grew older, they wrote their own. Later, the older children would write out what the younger ones dictated. bodyOffer(29255) The binders full of those journals are among my most treasured possessions. They radiate enthusiasm and joy and upset and relief and sorrow and lessons learned. They're full of life as we lived it in years we'll never see again. Teaching your children to write journals is largely a matter of habit. If you write in a journal, and your children see you do it, little ones will want to do the same thing. Encourage this. Don't know what to write? Start with the basics and you'll soon develop your own style. Each person has a different sense of what's important in a day, of what's worth remembering. All my children considered food the number one most important item to record in their early journals. One I remember clearly looks like this:

    Extractions: BEACH BALL PRACTICE ACTIVITIES GRADES: 1-7 Students with disabilities often need more practice than other students to master skills. Using a "programmed" beach ball is a fun way to fit drill and practice in without boring the kids. This idea was shared with me at a math workshop I attended last summer. Blow up the beach ball and hold it with the air hole facing upward. Beach balls are already nicely sectioned (kind of like an orange). So, all you have to do next is draw lines horizontally with a permanent marking pen to create several little boxes on your beach ball. Program the boxes with various information that students need to practice (ideas follow). Some Ideas: In each box, write a number from one to nine. Throw the ball to students and ask them what numbers their thumbs are on. When they tell you, ask them to either add, subtract, multiply or divide. This is an easy activity to individualize because you can ask different students to do different things with the numbers. I also found that it helps students with mathematics vocabulary. (Some of my students always say "take away" or "times" rather than the proper vocabulary). You could even say "find the product" to further reinforce vocabulary.

    Extractions: You've polished your CV and cover letter and lined up your letters of recommendation. Your application for a faculty position is ready, with one big exception: You're still struggling to write a statement of your teaching philosophy. The task is daunting even for the most experienced Ph.D.'s but it's increasingly difficult to avoid, as a growing number of departments are requiring applicants to submit such statements in their job applications. We talked to dozens of professors and administrators to learn what they look for when they read a statement of teaching philosophy, and we assembled their advice on getting started and avoiding some costly mistakes. Here are their tips and a list of dos and don'ts: Getting Started "Do I even have a teaching philosophy?" you may ask yourself. Of course you do, says Matt Kaplan, associate director of the Center for Research on Learning and Teaching at the University of Michigan. Every doctoral graduate has a teaching philosophy, whether or not they realize it. Let's face it, you may not be the most experienced instructor, but "you've been a student for a long time, and you've been in all types of classes, so you have opinions about teaching and learning and what works and doesn't work," he says. If you don't have a lot of teaching experience, "think about the great teachers you've had and what made them so effective, what they did that inspired you to spend six years in graduate school at a cost of $1,000 a month," says Andrew Green, a Ph.D. counselor in the Career Center at the University of California at Berkeley.
