Recall your favorite teacher and think about the way she or he man.docxsodhi3
Recall your favorite teacher and think about the way she or he managed the class to make it a positive learning experience for you. Now, read Chapter 5 of your text to explore the various strategies for effectively managing a classroom and see if you can make a connection between what the text says and your favorite classroom experience. Keeping that comparison in mind, answer the following questions:
· When you think about managing a classroom, what do you feel most confident about?
· What are your biggest concerns? State carefully one possible way to deal with your greatest concern and relate it to Kounin’s preventive approaches to managing a classroom.
· Why do you think your solution will work? What challenges or obstacles could impede its success? Explain.
Refer to Chapter 5 of your text, additional resources and your own insights/experiences.
CHAPTER 5 BELOW
The classic study of what effective teachers do when it comes to managing the classroom was published in 1970 by Jacob Kounin. Kounin's research involved the analysis of numerous hours of videotaped segments from classrooms at various grade levels. Kounin observed that teachers who prepared and proactively managed their classrooms were far more effective in teaching and engaging students. Because of the impact of his work, some have called Kounin the "father of classroom management." In this section, we will learn some of Kounin's concepts that emphasize preventive approaches to managing the classroom.
Managing by Being "Withit"

There are so many things to consider when teachers begin their teaching careers that crafting a classroom management system often falls low on the priority list, when in fact it should be one of the first topics addressed.
Jacob Kounin (1970) is known for introducing several helpful management concepts. Perhaps the best known is withitness. This term signifies a teacher's awareness of what is going on in his classroom and the communication of this awareness to his students. Teachers most often communicate their withitness in nonverbal ways, anticipating potential difficulties and warding off problems very quickly. Withit teachers act as if they have eyes in the back of their heads. For example, a withit teacher might go right on teaching when two students are chatting with each other, simply laying a hand on each desk as he walks by. In most instances in a well-managed classroom, this is the only action necessary to nip things in the bud.
Withit teachers also possess the ability to overlap, that is, to do more than one thing at a time. By "overlapping," Kounin meant the teacher's ability to handle two or more simultaneous events, or in today's terminology, to multitask. For example, a teacher who can overlap can answer a student's question and hand another student a hall pass without neglecting the first student. Situations continually arise in the classroom ...

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

“Jacob Kounin’s Theories”
Jacob Kounin was born in 1912, in Cleveland, Ohio. He graduated from Iowa State
University with a doctorate degree in 1939. In 1946 Kounin began his work at Wayne State
University as an educational physiologist. He focused on incorporating both discipline and
learning in the classroom since other theorists alienated the two.
Jacob Kounin’s work primarily took place in the 1970s. Kounin’s book Discipline and
Group Management in Classrooms condenses his work. Originally he began his research on
how misbehavior is handled by the teacher after it has occurred, however he soon realized it
was more imperative to observe the teachers actions in management of the classroom from the
very start. His research took place during a span of five years. Kounin concluded his
observations by reviewing elementary, college, and high school classrooms. He founded the
majority of his inferences and research by videotaping more than eighty classrooms at the
elementary school level.
Jacob Kounin went from educational psychologist to well-known theorist. His rationale
would be focuses on preventative discipline: using techniques and strategies to prevent
misbehaviors from occurring. He believed that in order for a teacher to have an effective
connection between management and teaching, there needed to be good Lesson Movement.
This Lesson Movement is achieved through with-it-ness, overlapping, momentum, smoothness,
2. and group focus. Jacob believed firmly in “with-it-ness.” With-it-ness was Kounin’s word to
describe a teacher’s ability to know what was going on at all times in his/her classroom. This
can be as simple as making scanning looks around the room every once in a while. Kounin said
that is was not necessary for the teacher to know what is going on, but for the students to
perceive that the teacher knows.
He was really big about not wasting time, always being prepared and having a set plan,
and having smooth transitions. That's were other parts of his theory come into play. Overlapping
is something that Jacob Kounin came up with to describe doing more than one thing at a
time. This portion of his theory was most closely related to "withitness" because the two go hand
in hand with being in control in the classroom and knowing what you're doing.
Another big portion of Jacob Kounin's theory dealt with lessons having smoothness and
momentum. These are big deals when working with lessons so that they have flow and are well
prepared. Smoothness is when a classroom is organized and the teacher is able to keep the
students focused and can transition smoothly from one lesson to the next. Momentum is much
like smoothness in that it involves keeping the lesson going and being prepared for anything that
could happen while having the students focused and having good transitions.
He believed that teachers must have the ability to multi-task and roll with the punches. A
teacher must be able to “roll-with-the-punches” in acknowledging that things might go wrong
and being able to fluidly adapt and continue onward despite distractions and disruptions. Being
able to keep on track without getting on tangents as well as being diverted by irrelevant
3. questions or information is important. I think Jacob’s idea for the classrooms is genius.
Essentially he’s saying to be able to have enthusiasm and be prepared for anything. If we can
follow his steps fully then we should become excellent teachers.
