Can educators be educated about how to educate
Posted By ITRCeducation Network : 05-Apr-2010

The children of today will create our future tomorrow. What a better way to enhance our future than by teaching. It's becoming harder and harder to find good teachers in today's world. We need good teachers to educate and inspire our children to make our nation a success in the future.
In its technical sense, education is the process by which society deliberately transmits its accumulated knowledge, skills, and values from one generation to another.

Etymologically the word education contains educare (Latin) “bring up”, which is related to educere “ bring out”, bring forth what is within, “bring out potential” and educere. “to lead”.

 

Teachers in educational institutions direct the education of students and might draw on many subjects, including reading, writing, mathematics, science and history. This process is sometimes called schooling when referring to the education of teaching only a certain subject, usually as professors at institutions of higher learning. There is also education in fields for those who want specific vocational skills, such as those required to be a pilot. In addition there is an array of education possible at the informal level, such as in museums and libraries, with the Internet and in life experience. Many non-traditional education options are now available and continue to evolve


The school of education divide their curriculum into three parts:
(1) regular academic subjects in order for teachers to learn and know the basic of what they are assigned to teach;
(2) the "foundation" courses that gives teachers a sense of history and philosophy of education; and
(3) the methodology courses [methods] that are supposed to offer ideas for how to teach particular subjects. And, there are many schools that add a required "element" as a student teacher [doing practice] in a more experienced teacher's class. .

 

Although it could never become the most common route by which to enter teaching, the scheme could help to boost the supply of good head teachers (Teach First applicants are screened for leadership potential). It may well prove useful, moreover, in attempting to breathe life into another of the proposals published in the draft manifesto: a pledge to allow any “good education provider”—charities, churches, even groups of parents—to open new state schools. Such measures may not produce a new Eton but, if they can boost the achievements of the poor, they will make a any country a fairer society.
