This document summarizes five perspectives on teaching: transmission, development, nurturing, social reform, and apprenticeship. It focuses on the apprenticeship perspective, which believes that learning occurs through authentic tasks in real settings. Apprenticeship teachers view themselves as coaches who build skills and transform learners' identities by acculturating them into a profession through scaffolding complex tasks into smaller steps. The document outlines the tools, steps, and timetable for translating the apprenticeship perspective section into Spanish.
1. English – Spanish translation of the
text: Apprenticeship Perspective
Chapter 5; Modeling Ways of Being.
By Janice Johanson and Daniel D.
Protz
2. 5 Perspectives
• TRANSMISSION Perspective: Teachers provide
clear objectives, give well-organized lectures,
adjust the pace of lecturing, make efficient use of
class time, answer questions, set high standards,
and develop "objective" means of assessing
learning.
• DEVELOPMENT Perspective: Their goal is to
change the way a learner thinks rather.
Developmental instructors do this by becoming
effective questioners and by developing
meaningful examples that learners can relate to
their current experiences.
3. • NURTURING Perspective: Nurturing teachers believe that
long-term persistent efforts to achieve come from the heart,
not the head. Student motivation will be increased when the
fear of failure is removed. These teachers provide a climate of
trust and balance, caring and challenge..
• SOCIAL REFORM Perspective: Social reform teachers operate
under three assumptions.
• First, their ideals are necessary for a better society.
• Second, their ideals are appropriate for all.
• Third, the ultimate goal of teaching is to create social change.
They are clear and organized, bring learners into diverse
communities of practice, ask probing questions, and work hard
to promote the dignity of their learner.
4. APPRENTICESHIP Perspective: (The one that is
going to be translated)
• Teachers with this perspective believe that learning occurs
when learners work on authentic tasks in real settings.
• Apprenticeship perspective teachers view themselves as
coaches who not only build skills but also transform learners'
identities to acculturate them into a profession.
• To these teachers learning is a combination of creating
learners who have both discipline competence and social
identity within a community of practice.
• Apprenticeship teachers create competency and identity using
"scaffolding" or breaking complex tasks into developmental
smaller steps and then teaching from the simple to the
complex.
