Instructions
You have become a reflective practitioner and have learned, applied, and evaluated teaching theories as well as analyzed and evaluated different models of learning styles. For this assignment, you will watch segments from the videos: The school that turned Chinese: Episode 1, Episode 2, and Episode 3. The videos are about a British school that experimented with two different teaching styles: the method they had been using, a more student-centered approach; and the Chinese method, a more teacher-centered approach. The school brought in five teachers from China to complete the experiment. The videos document this experiment with assessment and analysis of each approach.
Watch the following segments:
Episode 1: Segments 5, 6, 12, & 15
Episode 2: Segments 6 & 10
Episode 3: Segments 5, 6, 11, 14, & 17
As you watch each segment, answer the following questions:
Was the method teacher-centered or student-centered?
How did the students respond to the method?
Were the students’ responses academic or behavior related? How can you tell?
Based on question 1: When another approach was utilized by the teacher (or another teacher), did it change the response of students?
If you answered yes to #4, explain why you think a change occurred. If you answered no, why did no change occur?
Was there a match between teaching style and learning style demonstrated in any segments? Explain.
Using your notes from the segments you viewed of The School that Turned Chinese, it is now your turn to present an argument using evidence from your notes for or against learning styles. You must support your conclusion with at least five scholarly resources from peer-reviewed journals. Please also provide examples from the video that support or contest these learning styles. Make a clear a compelling argument for your point of view.
Length: 5-7 pages.
