· How will I comply with the legal, professional, and ethical obligations and ethical considerations associated with classroom management?
As a teacher, there is some legal consideration that a teacher is bound to. They have to observe these legal considerations so as to ensure the integrity of teaching as a profession is observed. Here, a teacher needs to ensure that they also obey ethics in the classroom for the strategic management of the class. Legally, teachers must demonstrate and portray the use of law in class settings. In this case, teachers must ensure that whatever they do while teaching is nothing but legal. This is important because it impacts the sense of legal obedience to students in question. If a teacher breaks the role, this could be misleading because students could likely follow the same step in that they have learned the same behaviors from their teachers (Martinez, Taut & Schaaf, 2016).
Professionally, teachers need to remain committed to their job. As a teacher, they should not allow being dictated by other issues because their calling is to impact the transfer and spread of knowledge. Therefore, a teacher is expected to undertake their duties professionally and respect all their mandated roles and duties as teachers. A teacher should appreciate the fact that students matter most. This is because they are the subject matter of why a teacher is employed. Therefore, teachers should not allow anything to come between their j roles and the rights of students.
Ethically, teachers should observe a good relationship between them and students. Furthermore, teachers should ensure that they establish a good relationship with their parents. This is because for parents they have entrusted the safety of their children to teachers. Therefore, as a teacher, they should always ensure they coexist peacefully with their parents. This is necessary to avoid instances where parents could develop any fear about whether the welfare of their children is guaranteed in the hands of a certain teacher.
· What will I do to establish trust with my students, my colleagues, and my student's caregivers?
There are different ways in which a teacher can foster a positive relationship with students. One of these ways is through having a positive attitude when teaching. Students do not like teachers who they cannot relate with at a personal level. Therefore, they find it hard to express themselves to such teachers, and consequently, this acts as a limitation in fostering a good relationship between a teacher and their students. Furthermore, teachers need to make fun when they are teaching. This is necessary because it helps to break the monotony for students (Endicott, RES, Eldridge & MAI, 2019). This implies that they are taken away from class mood, and they become fresh to continue learning. In such cases, a class becomes very lively, and even difficult concepts become easy to study.
The same relationship should exist among teachers. For a teacher to foster a good relationship with his or her colleagues, they need to respect each other. Each of them should attend their mandated duties without assuming that if they miss, another teacher will attend to such duties. In such an environment where teachers respect their duties, it becomes easy for teachers to relate and move along well. This impacts an environment where teachers are at peace with others and with students.
A teacher should also ensure that they exist a good relationship between them and students caregivers. This is to avoid conflicts of interest between the staff of different levels in an educational setting. To foster a good relationship between teachers and student caregivers, a teacher needs to reps the role of caregiving that is played by these caregivers. In this case, teachers should not assume they are superior to these staff. Instead, they should understand that they are employed by a given educational institution to meet the needs of students (Gregory, Clawson, Davis & Gerewitz, 2016).
