Instructional Project 3
What is the most important thing you discovered about discovery learning?
I think this method is the most efficient method to learn and remember
educational goals and subjects. The students can learn how to learn with
discovery learning model and they can be encouraged. When they try to learn
something they can discover the other things too. When they start learning, it will
be so fun to explore new things. The students with special needs will find their
way to learn too.
I think the best method from these three approaches is the instructional
method to me. The teacher can be ready for any kind of issues in the class with
the instructional method.
2. Causes of misbehavior. Think back over the classes you have attended in
which there have been disciplinary incidents. List the possible causes for any
such misbehavior. How might knowledge of the causes of these incidents
influence a teachers actions? Some behavior problems are teacher created and
some are student centered. Can you think of examples?
There are a lot of reasons to interrupt and disturbed the class and to cause
discipline issues in the class. A lot of educators made different surveys to learn
the problem and reasons and also many of researches are made to explain it and
to solve it for educators. According to Hummel and Deitz Children behave
violently at one time or another. Generally misbehavior is described as an action
of the child which interferes with his or her learning of either academic material or
appropriate social behavior. So most of the children misbehave because of
social and academicals issues. These are the reasons behind misbehaviors.
a- Educational background of family
b- Economical background of family
c- The lack of future goals
d- Transition periods of children
e- Try to take attention of the other students
f- Try to proof themselves
g- Try to take revenges from teachers
h- Dont understand the subject
i- To love talking
j- Cannot stop talking
k- Try to be cool among his or her friends
And also there are some reasons because of teachers. The same
students can behave very well in teacher A class and they can act up in teacher
B class. It means the cause is the teacher here not students.
a- The class instructions may be boring
b- Teachers may be too though
c- Teacher may not know the time management
d- Teachers knowledge may not be enough for the students lavel.
So we can see that reasons are not one sided. Teachers, students, class
area, materials of the subject and the other things may be effective on the
classroom management and discipline issues. A good experienced teacher can
handle the most complicated issues easily. They may not solve the issue
completely but that may decrease the bad results of the issues. According to
Rachel C. F. Sun There are several strengths in this study. First, it adopted the
ecological approach to examine the teachers and students causal explanations
for classroom misbehavior. Second, it used a qualitative approach in which data
was collected via in depth semi-structured interviews.
