Double-entry bookkeeping is complicated for a layman. The concept can be explained by drawing a comparison with Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion – ‘every action has an equal and opposite reaction.’ Similarly, in a double-entry bookkeeping process, a transaction is recorded twice, i.e. as a debit and a credit. Well, this blog is written with […]

spoon feeding our students

Are we babying our students? Are we doing to much for them and not allowing them to be independent? Are we not providing enough guidance? Or are the students simply lazy? It seemed as if this podcast was sort of hinting at this topic. One of the teachers mentioned how students do not read instructions; they want the teacher to read the directions out for them in detail. They want you to guide them through the entire process, even will doing the work. They want you to put the worksheet on the overhead and go through the answers with them so that all they have to do is copy the answers onto their worksheets. I would have to agree with him because I do believe our students like to be spoon fed. My sixth graders from my field experience were the same way. They would sometimes directly and indirectly get you to do all of the work so that they only have to copy down answers. Even as a student myself, I can say that I am guilty of this as well. You try to push as much of the workload off of your plate and onto the teacher's. 

Would I say the students are lazy? I am not fully sure yet. I think yes, part of it may be laziness, but I think much of it is the lack of independence. We sometimes forget with middle schoolers, that they are still very young in a sense. Especially sixth graders who are only one year removed from elementary school. They are not as accustomed to the independence that we would like them to have. As easy as we may think it is to receive a handout, read the directions, and complete the assignment, it may be difficult for some of our students. To break this habit and to build that independence, we need to spoon feed them so that they are accustomed to reading and interpreting directions. You then slowly begin to back off and allow them to do it on their own. Easier said than done, but I think that is the best way to break the "laziness".

The double entry journal is fantastic. I really enjoy how you can easily manipulate them to fit whatever you want your students to do or think. It's the perfect tool to ask and answer questions about the text. Many classmates were concerned about creating a broad double entry journal because of fears of students not taking it seriously. Like I mentioned in class, I will give my students all of the freedom in the world until they prove me that they cannot handle it. If students are not using the double entry journal effectively, you are able to be more specific with what you want them to enter. I think giving them that opportunity to do great work under broad directions, gives them that sense of independence instead of the teacher once again spoon feeding them throughout the entire process telling them what to do. 

I came across an article, What is Literacy in the 21st Century and it touched on some topics we discussed in class. The article focused on the connection between advancements in technology and its affect on literacy. The author mentioned that "Literacy has always been a collection of cultural and communicative practices shared among members of particular groups. As society and technology change, so does literacy". I agree with this statement because with new technology and changing times, new areas of literacy begin to arise. Technological literacy maybe was not so important in the sixties and seventies as it is today. But with advancements in technology and changing times, technological literacy has become so important because majority of everything around is technology.

My ever-growing definition of literacy has now grown to the ability to effectively communicate knowledge. Well, another week down, a lot more to geaux. 

No more hour long podcasts please!
