3. Committing to
Teaching

4. Commitment is a very important characteristic;
therefore, it is a paramount need for the profession of
teaching. A committed teacher is never satisfied with
what she or he already has; rather always seeks for the
new ideas and ways to contribute to the students. A
committed educator will have the passion and
enthusiasm for teaching and learning, as well. As she
or he develops himself or herself, this fact will have a
direct result on the learners' academic success and
personal development.

5. Teaching is a process in which educators have an
inevitable role. It is even true to say that the awareness
and curiousness of some educated people about their
environment and the events happening around them
have created the act of teaching, because they have
wished to share their own experiences on the objects
or phenomena with the people around them.
1. Teaching Profession

6. • The commitment as the fact that an individual feels
an emotional connection to an organization in
terms of the goals and values of the organization
without expecting any interest (as cited in Meyer &
Allen, 1997).
• Similarly, Celep (2000) also makes the definition of
the commitment as it is the attitudes of an
Individual towards the organizational values and
goals beyond the formal and normative
expectations of an organization.
2.What is Commitment?

7. • Committed teachers are those who have
excitement, passion, desire, enthusiasm and energy.
Thanks to these adjectives, such educators are
ready to challenge to alter the things in their
environment; create a difference in terms of their
methodology and profession of teaching. Due to
their commitment to the teaching and learning,
they will be able to generate something new,
something permanently-changing and something
authentic
3.A Committed Educator

8. • Commitment is one of the adjectives which are
indispensable ones for any educator. As claimed by
Day (2004), there are some items that can be
optional for education, but a committed passion is
not one of those for the process of education.
Passion creates motivation, hence encourages
teachers to act .
What is the Role of Commitment in Learning
and Teaching?

9.  The students discerning the enthusiasm of the teacher will be much
more interested and careful and the teaching will not be something
to be done by push, rather a product with inspiration.
 The commitment helps teacher to create a collaborative
environment through the effective methodology, and in such an
environment, a natural interaction is established between the learner
and teacher.
 The passion and commitment will increase the active participation of
the students in the lessons, because of the interaction and
motivation provided by the teacher.
 Not only the implementer of education but also the learners will
carry the education out of the four walls of classroom due to the
mutual self-respect occurred among the learner and teacher.
 The teachers will be much more innovative which will prevent
students from getting bored.

10. Knowing
Stakeholders

11. Who are the stakeholders?
.
 A stakeholder is an individual or group with an interest in
the success of an organization in fulfilling its mission
delivering intended results and maintaining the viability
of its products, services and outcomes over time.
 The idea of a “stakeholder” intersects with many school-
reform concepts and strategies such as leadership
teams, shared leadership, and voice that generally seek
to expand the number of people involved in making
important decisions related to a school’s organization,
operation, and academics.

12. Two major groups of Stakeholders:
.
Internal stakeholders
 They are the groups of people within the school
community. They are commonly students, parents or
family members, educators, school board members,
support staff, etc.
External stakeholders
 They are groups of people or organizations outside of
school. They can also take various actions that encourage
school improvement. There are community members,
government bodies, different local authorities, social
workers, trainers, suppliers, agencies, and many more
external stakeholders.

13. .
• The staff must take the lead to provide stakeholders the data
and other information they need to be productive partners
around student achievement.
• Partnership activities must be directly aligned with student
achievement goals.
• Efforts must be collaborative and genuine. There are
meaningful roles for each party to play and these must be
clearly articulated.
• Information sharing must be transparent. Achievement data
must be clear, accurate, and meaningful.
• All parties must operate from common values and a common
vision for student achievement.
• All efforts must be mission-oriented and data-driven.
Here are guidelines for engaging stakeholders:

your course. Developing measurable learning
outcomes can help student teachers or
instructors determine if learners are achieving
the goals we've set for them.

specific topic, ask students to participate, and
so on.

23. Planning and

one's underlying beliefs about teaching
and learning, as well as one's alignment
with actual classroom practice before,
during, and after a course is supposed to
teach.

30. Examples of Reflecting on Teaching
1. Reflection Journals

keeping a journal and documenting a
few information of their courses to
create an ongoing narrative of their
teaching.

teachings be captured on video, or teachers
may video recording themselves while
teaching and use a classroom observation
framework to assess their own practices.

 The teaching portfolio encourages student teachers
to collaborate on various aspects of their teaching,
typically beginning with a teaching philosophy or
statement, progressing through sample syllabi and
assignments, and concluding with evaluations from
teachers and friends. A portfolio allows you to reflect
on your practice in the classroom.

33. Some questions that may assist student teachers in reflecting on
their teaching include:
 What did you hope students would get out of the lesson?
 Was the class motivated? Did all students participate?
 Were the students on-task and focused?
