Sufi Teachers and Redefining the Traditional Student–Teacher Relationship
"What does it mean–and more important, what should it mean––to be educated?" (58) A response to
Spayd's begs another question. Is education the objective itself or the means to the objective? For
some people education is just a degree, a piece of paper framed on the wall. One can say, a person
with a diploma has received an education, but it is not certain that the person is educated.
This paper relates to those individuals who use education as a means to reach their objective. For
them, education is not a straight line with a definitive start and finish. It is a journey full of
crossroads and choices, which require direction from a guide. For a student, the ... Show more

The Sufi Order is most prevalent in the Middle East in general but specially in Iran, Iraq, Turkey and
India. Sufism is a mystical religion based on fundamentals of Islam promoting the most simple and
direct connection between human beings and God. An accomplished member of the Order who has
completed his training is called a Dervish. The Dervish traveled across villages, towns and
sometimes countries, (usually by foot) spreading the teachings of Sufism. Even today, it is not
uncommon to encounter a traveling Dervish when one visits the countries in the middle–east. They
spread the message of love and mercy, helping the needy and poor people. The Dervish have no
earthly possessions other than the clothes on their back. Their lifestyle is dominated by teaching
through story–telling, singing, fortune– telling (using astrological calendars) and healing the sick
with herbs and extracts. It is important to realize that there are many sects within Sufism, which
reflect its evolution similar to other religions or ways of life. A qualified description of Dervish is
provided by Kabir Helminski an author and translator of three books of Sufi poetry and a recognized
leader in the Sufi Order.
"A dervish is an apprentice, one who is learning the profession that will provide eternal livelihood.

Teaching Education And Student Teacher Relationships
The Concept of Learning
There are many methods to teaching in education and student–teacher relationships are a very
important aspect in learning as well. Paulo Freire introduces us to two methods of education, the
first is the banking concept where he explains that students are merely containers to fill with
information and education is only for depositing methods into them without the students truly
understanding what they are learning. The second method is the problem–posing method where the
teachers and students are both equal in the classroom and they teach each other. This concept is
aimed at challenging and testing their critical thinking. While David Bartholomae explores the
concept of teachers turning students into reader–based ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
These statements that he makes are very degrading to both the student and the teacher, but no matter
which way he puts it the students do go to school to learn and at the end of the day that is the main
goal in education. Since birth we have all been taught to do things like walk and talk without ever
questioning why we need to learn these things, they are just things that we must know to live our
lives. Freire argues that students are objects and that they do not truly understand what they are
learning because they do not have the capability of creative learning in the classroom. According to
Freire in the classroom, "The student's records, memorizes, and repeats these phrases without
perceiving what four times four really means" (257). The truth is that students go to school
kindergarten through twelfth grade and learn the basics like how to read, spell, write, add numbers
together, important things in history, and science explaining many things like our ecosystems.
Students have been learning through the banking concept their whole lives and it has been a very
effective because these subjects were needed to be taught or else people would not have the
common knowledge that is needed to go about their everyday lives. The teachers are meant to hand
down their knowledge to students, it works that way until a student can gain their own
understanding and then they are able to move onto the next topic. With the problem–posing method

Graduation Speech
When my family arrived in the United States as immigrants in December of 2000, we were
foreigners in a strange place. We did not know any English so my siblings and I were placed in a
school that had an English as a Second Language program specifically designed for immigrant
students. I remember being pulled out of my normal classroom regularly to work with teachers and
other students on activities that were designed to teach me English. The memory that stands out to
me the most when thinking of those classes are the teachers who patiently worked with me sounding
out words in books or writing sentences. The teachers made me excited about learning even when I
was pulled out of my regular class at times when we were watching a movie or playing games. One
day we were reading out loud in class and I nervously raised my hand to volunteer to read. I began
reading the sentence in my small timid voice and as I continued reading I heard the voice of a girl
who was comfortable and assured in the words she was speaking. There were no unsure pauses or
nervous stutters in my reading and I remember feeling a sense of triumph that I could read so
clearly. The separate time I received with these teachers played a large role in my success as a
student. I was able to form a comfortable relationship that allowed me to be more engaged in the

The Importance Of Teachers On The Classroom Environment
In order to develop strong relationships with my students, colleagues, and parents, I plan to do a
variety of little things to yield big results. The relationship that teachers have with students is vital to
the classroom environment. In "You've Got to Reach Them to Teach Them," Mary Kim Schrek
writes that "the human encounter between teacher and student is often a more powerful teaching tool
than the academic content, the grade, the data analysis, and the hours spent picking apart the
curriculum" (Schrek, 2011, p. 5). In order to establish such relationships, I plan to follow a four–step
procedure that I read about in an article by Nina Sears on the National Education Association's
website. Sears' article suggests that a teacher "get to know their students, individualize the
curriculum, watch what they say, and keep trying to reach students" (Sears, 2014). As an attempt to
get to know my students, I will create a little survey on the first day of school for each student to fill
out; questions would include asking my students what their favorite color is or what type of books
they like to read. By doing this, I will learn about my students' likes and dislikes and how to use
their answer in the curriculum. Individualizing the curriculum might seem like a huge undertaking
but if a teacher is willing to work with the student, it is not a big deal. For example, I was an

Relationship Between Teacher And Students
Relationships in the classroom
Building a relationship between the teacher and the student is not always easy, but it is necessary
and important. In the first lecture of this course, the importance of a relationship between the teacher
and the students was discussed [1]. Building a good relationship in the classroom setting is not only
a tool for building a better learning environment, but also a way to make a teacher 's work matter. If
the relationship between the teacher and the student is bad, usually the student feels pushed out and
rejected and therefore develops a bad relationship with the subject and with learning. A large body
of research supports the idea that a good teacher–student relationship helps the students feel better
and have higher academic achievements [2]–[5]. A good teacher, one that has a good relationship
with his/her students can manage to instill a growth mindset in their students and help them achieve
more also in the future, when the said teacher is not present anymore.
Building a relationship takes time and effort, as humans do not immediately accept strangers in their
lives and don 't usually trust others unless that trust is earned. For a teacher, earning the trust of a
student can be a very complicated process, based on different experiences and different views on
various topics. There are three main factors that set the basis for the classroom relationships: the
way in which we interact, the content of the interactions and the environment

Establishing Good Relationships Between Teachers And Students
ESTABLISHING GOOD RELATIONSHIPS
Teaching is a job which involves constant interaction and communication between teachers and
students. In order for communication to be effective, it is important that a good relationship exists
between the two parties.
Since the role of the teacher plays a major factor in student learning (Effect size = 0.93) according to
Hattie (2013), it is vital that a positive relationship occurs. Equally important are the relationships a
student has with his class peers. If students feel safe and comfortable in their learning environment,
they are more willing to take risks and interact with others, which only improves the quality of
learning that takes place.
Therefore, I always try to foster a healthy atmosphere in my classes. The first thing I do as a teacher,
starting on the opening school day and reinforced from then on, is to establish a culture of respect.
This is one of my class expectations and usually there is a poster up to remind everyone that respect
for oneself and each other is paramount. It is only once that is established that positive
communication and relationship building can occur.
It is generally believed that the components of healthy relationships are communication, trust,
respect and love (Townsend, 2014). Clearly, after establishing a line of communication, and
ensuring an environment of respect, trust is the next issue that I work on. Trust–building is a process

Reflective Essay: Positive Relationships Between Teachers...
People often ask me "How do you teach" and I just reply with a smile. To teach means more than to
lecture or explain before a group of students. Teaching is getting to know your students farther than
academics, getting to know them personally so that you have a better understanding of who they are.
The teacher and student combo that has the qualities of good communications, respect in the
classroom, and show interest in teaching from the point of view of the teacher and learning from a
student will establish a positive relationship in the classroom. A good bond must start from the day
the student enters the classroom until they leave the classroom. Positive relationships between
teachers and students can determine student success or failure. Marzano (2011) notes that "Positive
relationships between teachers and students are among the most commonly cited variables
associated with effective instruction" (p.82). It is important that, we as educators, recognize the
impact we have on our students. Teachers have a big responsibility and that is to not only meet the
needs of the students academically, but to meet their needs emotionally as well. When a classroom
environment is created and it promotes positive vibes it can channel everyone's energy to be
successful and reach their desired goals. My students and I have built a bond where they know they
know when we can joke and laugh with one another and when it is time to get busy with work.

Collaborative Learning As A Teacher Student Relationship
Collaborative Learning
Collaborative learning is a situation in which learners attempt to learn together. The people involved
in collaborative learning capitalize on one another's skills and resources. Under these circumstances,
they share information, monitor each other's work, and evaluate ideas together. Each participant is
accountable to the rest of the learners (Bruffee 636). The learning can be online, chart rooms, or face
to face, and may involve group projects, collaborative writing, debates, joint problem solving, and
study teams (Bruffee 638). In essence, collaborative learning redefines the traditional learning
paradigm in which learning was a teacher–student relationship.
Collaboration can be used in various situations to enhance a student's ability to learn. One way in
which collaborative learning can be used is in group projects. Group projects help learners develop
skills that are increasingly important in the professional world. Positive group projects enhance
students learning, retention, and success of the entire group and school (Bruffee 640). Working on a
project in collaboration fosters the student's ability to manage time, break complex tasks into smaller
parts, challenge assumptions, and develop stronger communication skills. The overall benefits of
group projects include; pooling of knowledge and skills, holding all members accountable,
developing approaches to problem solving, tackling projects that cannot be tacked by individuals,

Teachers understand that if this behavior continues in the classroom and if they do nothing to
prevent this from happening, the outcome proves to be disastrous for both types of participants. The
student will conclude that his or her behavior is permissible, and will draw away from learning,
therefore it is essentially important for the teacher to explain to the child the importance to learn.
Though we understand that learning cannot be forced. Learning becomes a process for an individual
where he or she feels comfortable with learning whether it's in a classroom or at home. Mike Rose
explains in "Lives on the Boundary" that "It is what we are excited about that educates us" (106).
Rose's quote can be applied to children at an early age, just as well as it can be applied to adults.
Definitely children learn when they enjoy learning, but also they need some control over the teacher

2. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Theoretical review
Meta–analytic reviews reveal contradictory results with regard to the relationship between teacher
training and student achievement. Hanushek (1989, 1997; Fehrler et al., 2009) concluded that there
is no strong evidence to suggest that teacher training and teacher education has a positive effect on
student achievement. On the other hand, Greenwald et.al (1996) and Kane (2013) find a strong
relationship between teacher education and student achievement. Using a narrative synthesis of
individual studies, Wayne and Youngs (2003) argue that students' test scores in English, History and
Science do not provide sufficient empirical evidence for drawing conclusions regarding the nature of
the relationship between teachers' education and training and students' achievement.

The government plays a major role in determining the qualification of teachers. Governments

Most students especially those younger need to be attracted to a particular subject or topic, one that
just grabs their attention, in order to pay attention and to learn from that subject. One such example
is when I entered the 8th grade with a hate for mathematics, but after being taught by a very well
educated professor, I managed to start liking algebra and becoming more and more intrigued as the
course went on.
When I used to be in elementary school, I would only find interest in those topics I thought were
exciting and interesting such as science and drawing. Whenever a teacher would tell us to draw or
sketch a picture, a smile immediately grew on my face and I lightened up with joy since I loved to
draw. My love of art made me one of the most talented kids at school with that gift. I believe that a
dedicated person must push his or her limitations to the maximum of their potentials to be educated
and to succeed even though he or she may not like what theyre being taught, but that person must
still push themselves to become interested in order to do well in that subject at the same time.

This worksheet demonstrates another way I asked my students to construct knowledge; by
examining a document (in this case a difficult, non–narrative poem) for its details, to try to sum
those details to meaning (comprehension) and to try to figure out how the student knew how to sum
those details (metacognition). While the practical, classroom end of this worksheet was a brainstorm
regarding the details of the poem and an increasingly specific investigation of the diversity of
potential meanings in the poem, by allowing my students to write before speaking –– to gather their
thoughts and ideas before even a spoken brainstorm –– I allowed each of my students to feel as
though they had something to contribute to the class and to the classes' construction of a reading (or
a series of readings!) of the poem. Allowing students to chart the known, this activity ultimately
allowed my students to make the leap to charting a small section of ideas that were, before this
activity, unknown. Before students can trust each other enough to share their ideas –– and to
construct knowledge with each other –– the teacher must engage students in activities to foster

School begins at age five, or for some even before that, and so begins the excruciating routine of

routine that goes on for years is essential to our lives, as well as those older strangers who teach
about subjects that you don't understand. Those older strangers have the responsibility to pass on
knowledge to their students and the given knowledge, whether taken or not, will determine their

The Importance Of Positive Relationships With Students
In alliance with Maslow's hierarchy of needs, students need positive relationships to be successful in
the classroom. It is important for students to feel important and needed in the classroom. Students
need to be able to identify and see their purpose needed in the classroom, as well as their purpose as
a student. As students identify their purpose in the classroom, they are able to feel supportive in the
classroom. This allows for positive bonds to form and for students to become fully engaged in the
classroom experience. Teachers have the opportunity to provide students with an inclusive, positive,
and enjoyable experience, and failure to do this will cause negative effects on the students socially
and academically. In a study conducted by Marzano, Marzano, and Pickering, positive–teacher
student relationships build the foundation for classroom management (Jones & Jones, 2016, p.52). It
is almost impossible for a teacher to manage a class without a positive relationship with the
students. Students who do not have a positive relationship with a teacher will not follow rules or
obey the teacher. Ways to establish positive relationships with students include, providing them with

A social capital in a classroom setting is defined as having a caring teacher – student relationship

impact on the student's social development. If a teacher really wants to create a positive relationship
with their students so they can further help their academic development, it would be wise for them
to communicate with their students. A key part of communication is actively listening to what the

not just listen to what the students are saying but listen for the meaning behind it. This will develop
a trust between the teacher and the student and would help grow a positive relationship

Effects Of A Positive Student-Teacher Relationship
Effects of a Positive Student–Teacher Relationship
How does having a positive relationship with a teacher affect the student? Students who portray
positive attitudes and earn more trust from their teachers as a result would pose this question. When
I did my Community Service Learning (CSL) placement at my Elementary/Junior High school for a
past education course, one thing I gained out of this experience was establishing relationships with
not only teachers (ie. visiting former teachers after school and observing clubs I once attended), but
also the students I tutored (namely groups of students from Grades 2 and 9 as well as a second–
grade class). Putting this topic in mind, I decided to discuss the research behind the benefit as I
reflect through my experiences with the rapport I built through the perspective of these students (and
assuming I took the role of a teacher). Research shows that this often leads to higher academic
achievement and motivation as well as improved emotional and behavioural strengths and
difficulties. (Raufelder, Scerber, & Wood, 2016; Sointu, Savolainen, Lappalainen, & Lambert, 2017;
Poulou, 2015) Though I find these effects are true, the research is not entirely representative of my
experiences as the experiments were done in different countries.

Whether the teacher–student relationship is positive or negative, this correlate to how this can
impact a student in the long run. According to Raufelder et al. (2016), students who like a

Exploring the Relationship and Influence between Teacher...
The main purpose of this study was to explore the relationship and influence between a teacher
expectations and student achievements in class. Does that student whom the teacher is always giving
extra lessons and is always more patient with or whom always takes the longest to answer a
question, and is always called on, is he the one who is getting the most out of that class? According
to several studies and experiments they all say yes and student does achieve to be more successful if
their teacher takes a little of their time to help the student and let them answer that hard question
with more time than the other students. Studies have shown that teachers' expectations are more
likely to influence the student's performance. The attitude of the teacher can change how they see
the actions of a student and allow them to make different opinions. As shown in Elisha Babad, Frank
Bernieri, and Robert Rosenthal's study (1991) from the book Social Psychology written by David G
Myers, students are very sensitive to teachers' facial expressions and body movements (111; bk.ch3).
A teacher's attitude can influence their judgment of a student in class room behavior; namely, their
own attitudes can cause the fundamental attribution error to occur as well as the Self– fulfilling
prophecy, as reflected in a student's performance.

Student Teacher Relationships And Student Academic Growth...
In recent years a discussion regarding education has increasingly emphasized teachers' role in
promoting student academic growth through personalism. Phillippo explains personalism as,
policies that ask teachers' to develop individual relationship with students at a presumed level for
student achievement (2012, p. 441). Urban school districts have promoted these policies by
converting larges schools into smaller schools. Research on student–teacher relationships generally
supports policies of personalism" (Phillippo, 2012, p. 441). Students who have a professional
relationship with their teachers tend to be more successful in school. This challenges us to consider
how teachers' practices directly influence what and how students learn, and what can be done to
support teachers' contributions.
Summary of The Study Phillippo conducted this qualitative research study over a time span of a
year and thirty–four months. She wanted to investigate how students from non–dominant groups
responded to teacher personalism. Data shows that policies of personalism do promote student–
teacher relationships, however; tension arose when the participants felt that teacher personalism was
threatening their privacy or agency (Phillippo, 2012, p. 441). Culture and social experiences
contributed to the way students perceived personalism and it constrained the participants' trust
toward their teachers.

Some children may be coming from broken homes. The children especially in public may not have
ate a meal when they came home or may not have slept in a bed or may not even have a home.
Understanding the child's background builds understand of how and how much to motivate the

CHAPTER 3: Research Methodology
Introduction
The purpose of this non–experimental quantitative study will be to examine the relationship between
teacher's assessment of their school's implementation of EBS, teacher's demographic information,
and student referrals. This chapter will discuss the proposed research methods of this study. First,
the research design and rationale of the study will be discussed, followed by a restatement of the
research questions. Next, data collection and analysis will be discussed.
Research Design and Rationale The present study will utilize a non–experimental quantitative
predictive design. The non–experimental design is appropriate, as random assignment, control
groups, and manipulation of an independent variable will not be employed (Cramer, D., 1998). A
quantitative design was chosen over a qualitative design, as this study seeks to make inferences
based on quantifiable results rather than assess individuals' experiences (Craighead & Nemeroff,
2001). Because the aim of this study is to use several variables to predict student behavior, the
predictive design is most appropriate (Craighead & Nemeroff, 2001). This study will use a multiple
linear regression to evaluate the relationship between teacher's assessment of their school's EBS
implementation, teacher demographics, and student behavior in an urban middle school. The
predictor variables for this analysis will be teacher's assessment of their school's EBS
implementation, as well as the

Examples Of Negative Teacher Student Relationship
TEACHER STUDENT RELATIONSHIP Teacher student relationship is one of the most powerful
elements within the learning environment. The teacher– student relationship is like a bridge that
connects knowledge, experience and efficiency of a teacher to bring out the potentiality of a student
with his or her aspirations. It is the relationships that teachers develop with their students as teachers
have an important role in a student's academic growth. The quality of teacher– student relationship
is the keystone for all aspects of classroom management. (Marzano and ,Marzano, 2003) There are
two types of teacher– student relationship. They are positive teacher – student relationship and
negative teacher – student relationship. The positive teacher–student relationships enable students to
feel safe and secure in their learning environments and provide support for important social and

Evaluation Of A Teacher Student Relationship
Linda Albert (2012) mentions for students to experience a strong sense of belonging in school, they
must satisfy Cooperative Discipline's "Three Cs". The Three Cs are Capable, Connect, and
Contribute. "Three factors affect students' ability to satisfy the Three Cs in the classroom: the quality
of the teacher–student relationship; the strength of the classroom climate for success; and the
appropriateness of the classroom structure" (Albert, 2012). The best way to satisfy the Three Cs
through the use of encouragement strategies. If we are positive and encouraging, "people do better
when they feel better, and that which people perceive affects the way they feel. For example, if you
receive a compliment, then a positive feeling emerges" (Marshall, 2005). The first C is helping
students feel Capable. When students feel good about themselves they have fulfilled the feeling of
capable. As teachers, Linda Albert mentioned different encouragement techniques to help students
reach their full potential. Linda made her techniques into five major strategies: make mistakes okay,
build confidence, focus on past successes, make learning tangible, and recognize achievement. I
make sure I implement her strategies into my classroom. For instance, I show students that I make
mistakes all the time and it is okay if they do to. Also I tell the students if they mistake in the lab,
that "it's okay, that's why I am here to help you". To build confidence, I make sure I focus on their

What Makes An Effective Classroom Manager?
There are many misconceptions of what makes an effective classroom manager. Often, teachers
believe that if you are able to "control" or "demand" good behavior; this represents effective
classroom management. It was once said that a child doesn't care how much you know, until they
know how much you care. When teachers build rapport with their students; students often present
positive behavior. According to Jones, Bailey & Jacob, (2014, p.20) teachers who establish and
maintain high–quality, trusting relationships with students can draw on their history of positive
interactions in order to address classroom management challenges as they arise. One can refer this
as making deposits and withdrawals. The relationship presents itself as a bank account; when you
contiousily build rapport with students you have are making deposits of positive interactions. So,
that when those problematic encounters, challenges or (withdrawals); take place there is a positive
balance. Once this occurs there is evidence of effective communication and relationships between
students and teachers. Furthemore, building positive relationships with students is fundamental to
effective classroom management. As per Jones, Bailey & Jacob, (2014) notes" by implementing
management strategies that actively build children's social emotional and self–regulatory skills,
teachers maximize their management efforts and increase the likelihood that students will be able to

Psychological Determinant Analysis
Psychological determinants are an important aspect in community nursing. This determinant enables
the nurse to understand how health of a population is being affected psychologically. Psychological
determinants embody in internal and external factors that influence the health of a population

contribute to mental illnesses and absenteeism in schools. The purpose of this paper is to exhibit
how psychological determinants influence the health and well–being of students in a school setting.
Psychological Climate The quality of the psychological climate at Harding Middle School varies in
different ways. The climate that is influenced by the students, exhibits behavioral issues,
communication barriers, and positivity among students. Students do present with anxiety and
emotional issues in certain situations. The quality of relationships is varied. For most of the students,

Building Positive Student Teacher Relationships
Teachers are expected to create meaningful and engaging instruction aligned with the Common Core
State Standards, while also creating a classroom management plan that enhances student
achievement. Jones and Jones (2013) quote Woolfolk and Weinstein (2006) in their book,
Comprehensive Classroom Management, stating that "What students want are teachers who
establish caring relationships, set limits and create a safe environment ... and make learning fun"
(2013, p. 59). I strive to achieve this in my classroom each day as I greet students at the door,
shaking their hand and making small talk with them, establish fair and consistent rules and
procedures, and by building positive student–teacher relationships while making learning fun
through the use of hands–on–activities, role playing, and creative constructions. The first step in
classroom management is to create an environment where students feel cared for and valued. To do
accomplish this, teachers need to build positive student–teacher relationships. Marazano (2003)
reports in his book, Classroom Management That Works, which is cited in the Jones and Jones
(2013) book, that "Positive teacher–student relationships were the foundation of effective classroom
management" (p.56). I am committed to creating a safe learning environment that is organized,

Teacher Student Relationship With Students
The Teacher–Student Relationship
School begins at age five, or for some even before that, and so begins the excruciating routine of
waking up at an early hour to be ready to be at a place where you didn't ask to be, to be taught by an
older stranger about something you don't understand. However, in the life of a human being this
routine that goes on for years is essential to our lives, as well as those older strangers who teach
about subjects that you don't understand. Those older strangers have the responsibility to pass on
knowledge to their students and the given knowledge, whether taken or not, will determine their
future. Is everyone comfortable or willingly to accept the teachings of a total stranger? Of course
not, therefore this total stranger has to have an identification to the students, but not necessarily just
a name. Teachers must develop a relationship with their students because teacher–student
relationships affect a student 's academic excellence.
As a student myself I witness the rebellious outburst of students that will at no end do everything,
but be productive in class. What is the root of this refusal towards learning? This resistance to
education is a nature acquired from the famous phrase that "school is boring" or "school is hard" and
those rebellious students disengage themselves from the class and teacher. When a child transitions

Effective And Ineffective Teacher Student Relationships
The purpose of this study was to analyze the research findings on effective and ineffective teacher–
student relationships and the results on student achievement and behavior. Marzano discusses the
teacher's personality not necessarily pertaining to the quality of T–S relationship. The teacher should
act professionally as an advocate. Marzano claims that "Rather, the most effective T–S relationships
are characterized by specific teacher behaviors: exhibiting appropriate levels of dominance;
exhibiting appropriate levels of cooperation; and being aware of high–needs students." Dominance
does not mean force or control but rather providing a clear purpose and strong guidance to students,
both academically and behaviorally (Marzano, 2003). Teacher–student relationships are also formed
as a result of how things are run and the atmosphere of a classroom, primarily routines and
expectations. Dominance is also not referring to the teacher talking the whole time with limited or
no student interaction as seen in a study conducted by analyzing video–observations. Monologic T–
S interactions "...in which the teacher controls interaction and learners participate minimally...[result
in]...lower–performing classes...In these classes, students were less able to recall and understand the

Positive Relationship With A Teacher
spends more per person on school education than most developed countries and yet we are behind
most of the countries in the math and science abilities. "As of January of this year, education
officials of Alabama have released a list of seventy–five schools, mostly high schools, are
considered failing" (Crain 2017). According to decades of research, ineffective teaching of teachers
is the biggest problem in public schools across the nation. Bad teachers don't understand the
importance and the impact of having a good teacher–student relationship. "Positive teacher–student
relationships include the presence of having closeness, warmth and positivity with the students in
the classroom" (Gallagher 2013). By having a good teacher–student relationship, it positively
impacts the student's social and academic outcomes. Positive relationships with teachers help
students with developing self–esteem, self–concept and enable students to feel safe in their learning
environments. This positive relationship with a teacher is specifically effective in high–poverty
urban schools. Students that live in poverty who have a strong teacher–student relationship have
higher academic achievement and more positive social–motional adjustment than those who don't
have a positive relationship with their teacher. Studies have found that the teacher–student
relationships are very important in transition years when students go from elementary to middle

Results from the research found that teacher's negative behavior in class had a direct effect on
inappropriate assertiveness from students. Dissatisfied teacher behavior impacts a student
emotionally, behaviorally, and socially. A teacher that shows outstanding leadership qualities guides
students to become socially aware of their actions with their peers. Research conducted among
secondary or high school levels were geared more toward the teacher's perception of their own
relationship with students instead of viewing from the student point of view. Four aspects were
identified by teachers to be the most beneficial characteristics of good student teacher relationships:
humor, respect, effort, and ease of communication with teacher (Wilkins, 2014). Past studies have
identified that teachers like to maintain a strictly professional relationship with students in order to
maintain discipline, to help students become responsible, and help build their maturity. Teachers
refused to invest effort into helping students that did not actively participate in the classroom.
Ironically, the research also revealed that teachers express a strong need to feel cared for by their
students. Inversely, teachers found it difficult to show positive emotions toward students that exhibit

Those teachers, who demonstrate respect towards their students, automatically win favor by having
active learners in their classroom. The arrogant or offensive teacher will lack these positive qualities
due to his or her lack of control over the children. Teachers should assert that they should also be
treated with respect .Teachers can blend their warmth and firmness towards the students in their
classroom, but with realistic limits.
Teachers who are in a classroom might have experienced one time or other students who are
disruptive or find learning boring. Teachers understand that if this behavior continues in the
classroom and if they do nothing to prevent this from happening, the outcome proves to be
disastrous for both types of participants. The student will conclude that his or her behavior is
permissible, and will draw away from learning; therefore it is essentially important for the teacher to
explain to the child the importance to learn. Though we understand that learning cannot be forced,
learning becomes a process for an individual where he or she feels comfortable with learning
whether it's in a classroom or at clinics.

The mentoring interactions portray habitual classroom situations that help thinking over particular
Student Teachers' performance (Clarke, 2001) eliciting, as a consequence, tacit knowledge that is
only in the expert teacher' mind. These genuine interactions between an expert teacher and a student
teacher triggers critical reflection processes on teaching experiences and invites to further think of
what can be done in similar future situations. In this chapter our objective is twofold: On one hand
we aim at (1) stressing the relevance of seizing the practical knowledge that emerge in mentoring
conversations –as the one contained in the previous example– leaving other aspects of the
interaction behind (i.e. personal engagement, emotional commitment, roles, etc.); and, on the other
hand, (2) describing a possible procedure that may help to make that practical knowledge not only
explicit but also understandable and useful for other teachers. Along these lines, and according to
the objectives, we will structure the chapter into two major sections: theoretical underpinnings in
teacher mentoring; and methods to analyze mentoring interactions. The first one will revolve around

Sufi Teachers and Redefining the Traditional Student–Teacher Relationship "What does it mean–and more important, what should it mean––to be educated?" (58) A response to Spayd's begs another question. Is education the objective itself or the means to the objective? For some people education is just a degree, a piece of paper framed on the wall. One can say, a person with a diploma has received an education, but it is not certain that the person is educated. This paper relates to those individuals who use education as a means to reach their objective. For them, education is not a straight line with a definitive start and finish. It is a journey full of crossroads and choices, which require direction from a guide. For a student, the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Sufi Order is most prevalent in the Middle East in general but specially in Iran, Iraq, Turkey and India. Sufism is a mystical religion based on fundamentals of Islam promoting the most simple and direct connection between human beings and God. An accomplished member of the Order who has completed his training is called a Dervish. The Dervish traveled across villages, towns and sometimes countries, (usually by foot) spreading the teachings of Sufism. Even today, it is not uncommon to encounter a traveling Dervish when one visits the countries in the middle–east. They spread the message of love and mercy, helping the needy and poor people. The Dervish have no earthly possessions other than the clothes on their back. Their lifestyle is dominated by teaching through story–telling, singing, fortune– telling (using astrological calendars) and healing the sick with herbs and extracts. It is important to realize that there are many sects within Sufism, which reflect its evolution similar to other religions or ways of life. A qualified description of Dervish is provided by Kabir Helminski an author and translator of three books of Sufi poetry and a recognized leader in the Sufi Order.

  • 3. Teaching Education And Student Teacher Relationships The Concept of Learning There are many methods to teaching in education and student–teacher relationships are a very important aspect in learning as well. Paulo Freire introduces us to two methods of education, the first is the banking concept where he explains that students are merely containers to fill with information and education is only for depositing methods into them without the students truly understanding what they are learning. The second method is the problem–posing method where the teachers and students are both equal in the classroom and they teach each other. This concept is aimed at challenging and testing their critical thinking. While David Bartholomae explores the concept of teachers turning students into reader–based ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... These statements that he makes are very degrading to both the student and the teacher, but no matter which way he puts it the students do go to school to learn and at the end of the day that is the main goal in education. Since birth we have all been taught to do things like walk and talk without ever questioning why we need to learn these things, they are just things that we must know to live our lives. Freire argues that students are objects and that they do not truly understand what they are learning because they do not have the capability of creative learning in the classroom. According to Freire in the classroom, "The student's records, memorizes, and repeats these phrases without perceiving what four times four really means" (257). The truth is that students go to school kindergarten through twelfth grade and learn the basics like how to read, spell, write, add numbers together, important things in history, and science explaining many things like our ecosystems. Students have been learning through the banking concept their whole lives and it has been a very effective because these subjects were needed to be taught or else people would not have the common knowledge that is needed to go about their everyday lives. The teachers are meant to hand down their knowledge to students, it works that way until a student can gain their own understanding and then they are able to move onto the next topic.

  • 5. Graduation Speech When my family arrived in the United States as immigrants in December of 2000, we were foreigners in a strange place. We did not know any English so my siblings and I were placed in a school that had an English as a Second Language program specifically designed for immigrant students. I remember being pulled out of my normal classroom regularly to work with teachers and other students on activities that were designed to teach me English. The memory that stands out to me the most when thinking of those classes are the teachers who patiently worked with me sounding out words in books or writing sentences. The teachers made me excited about learning even when I was pulled out of my regular class at times when we were watching a movie or playing games. One day we were reading out loud in class and I nervously raised my hand to volunteer to read. I began reading the sentence in my small timid voice and as I continued reading I heard the voice of a girl who was comfortable and assured in the words she was speaking. There were no unsure pauses or nervous stutters in my reading and I remember feeling a sense of triumph that I could read so clearly. The separate time I received with these teachers played a large role in my success as a student. I was able to form a comfortable relationship that allowed me to be more engaged in the class and willing to learn without fear. Although I was disadvantaged because of ...

  • 7. The Importance Of Teachers On The Classroom Environment In order to develop strong relationships with my students, colleagues, and parents, I plan to do a variety of little things to yield big results. The relationship that teachers have with students is vital to the classroom environment. In "You've Got to Reach Them to Teach Them," Mary Kim Schrek writes that "the human encounter between teacher and student is often a more powerful teaching tool than the academic content, the grade, the data analysis, and the hours spent picking apart the curriculum" (Schrek, 2011, p. 5). In order to establish such relationships, I plan to follow a four–step procedure that I read about in an article by Nina Sears on the National Education Association's website. Sears' article suggests that a teacher "get to know their students, individualize the curriculum, watch what they say, and keep trying to reach students" (Sears, 2014). As an attempt to get to know my students, I will create a little survey on the first day of school for each student to fill out; questions would include asking my students what their favorite color is or what type of books they like to read. By doing this, I will learn about my students' likes and dislikes and how to use their answer in the curriculum. Individualizing the curriculum might seem like a huge undertaking but if a teacher is willing to work with the student, it is not a big deal. For example, I was an auditory learner and I had a teacher who altered the project requirements so I could write a song to ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 9. Relationship Between Teacher And Students Relationships in the classroom Building a relationship between the teacher and the student is not always easy, but it is necessary and important. In the first lecture of this course, the importance of a relationship between the teacher and the students was discussed [1]. Building a good relationship in the classroom setting is not only a tool for building a better learning environment, but also a way to make a teacher 's work matter. If the relationship between the teacher and the student is bad, usually the student feels pushed out and rejected and therefore develops a bad relationship with the subject and with learning. A large body of research supports the idea that a good teacher–student relationship helps the students feel better and have higher academic achievements [2]–[5]. A good teacher, one that has a good relationship with his/her students can manage to instill a growth mindset in their students and help them achieve more also in the future, when the said teacher is not present anymore. Building a relationship takes time and effort, as humans do not immediately accept strangers in their lives and don 't usually trust others unless that trust is earned. For a teacher, earning the trust of a student can be a very complicated process, based on different experiences and different views on various topics. There are three main factors that set the basis for the classroom relationships: the way in which we interact, the content of the interactions and the environment ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 11. Establishing Good Relationships Between Teachers And Students ESTABLISHING GOOD RELATIONSHIPS Teaching is a job which involves constant interaction and communication between teachers and students. In order for communication to be effective, it is important that a good relationship exists between the two parties. Since the role of the teacher plays a major factor in student learning (Effect size = 0.93) according to Hattie (2013), it is vital that a positive relationship occurs. Equally important are the relationships a student has with his class peers. If students feel safe and comfortable in their learning environment, they are more willing to take risks and interact with others, which only improves the quality of learning that takes place. Therefore, I always try to foster a healthy atmosphere in my classes. The first thing I do as a teacher, starting on the opening school day and reinforced from then on, is to establish a culture of respect. This is one of my class expectations and usually there is a poster up to remind everyone that respect for oneself and each other is paramount. It is only once that is established that positive communication and relationship building can occur. It is generally believed that the components of healthy relationships are communication, trust, respect and love (Townsend, 2014). Clearly, after establishing a line of communication, and ensuring an environment of respect, trust is the next issue that I work on.

  • 13. Reflective Essay: Positive Relationships Between Teachers... People often ask me "How do you teach" and I just reply with a smile. To teach means more than to lecture or explain before a group of students. Teaching is getting to know your students farther than academics, getting to know them personally so that you have a better understanding of who they are. The teacher and student combo that has the qualities of good communications, respect in the classroom, and show interest in teaching from the point of view of the teacher and learning from a student will establish a positive relationship in the classroom. A good bond must start from the day the student enters the classroom until they leave the classroom. Positive relationships between teachers and students can determine student success or failure. Marzano (2011) notes that "Positive relationships between teachers and students are among the most commonly cited variables associated with effective instruction" (p.82). It is important that, we as educators, recognize the impact we have on our students. Teachers have a big responsibility and that is to not only meet the needs of the students academically, but to meet their needs emotionally as well. When a classroom environment is created and it promotes positive vibes it can channel everyone's energy to be successful and reach their desired goals. My students and I have built a bond where they know they know when we can joke and laugh with one another and when it is time to get busy with work. Often times some teachers try to be ...

  • 15. Collaborative Learning As A Teacher Student Relationship Collaborative Learning Collaborative learning is a situation in which learners attempt to learn together. The people involved in collaborative learning capitalize on one another's skills and resources. Under these circumstances, they share information, monitor each other's work, and evaluate ideas together. Each participant is accountable to the rest of the learners (Bruffee 636). The learning can be online, chart rooms, or face to face, and may involve group projects, collaborative writing, debates, joint problem solving, and study teams (Bruffee 638). In essence, collaborative learning redefines the traditional learning paradigm in which learning was a teacher–student relationship. Collaboration can be used in various situations to enhance a student's ability to learn. One way in which collaborative learning can be used is in group projects. Group projects help learners develop skills that are increasingly important in the professional world. Positive group projects enhance students learning, retention, and success of the entire group and school (Bruffee 640). Working on a project in collaboration fosters the student's ability to manage time, break complex tasks into smaller parts, challenge assumptions, and develop stronger communication skills. The overall benefits of group projects include; pooling of knowledge and skills, holding all members accountable, developing approaches to problem solving, tackling projects that cannot be tacked by individuals, and finding the ...

A positive relationship between the student and the teacher is difficult to establish, but can be found for both individuals at either end. The qualities for a positive relationship can vary to set a learning experience approachable and inviting the students to learn.

Teachers understand that if this behavior continues in the classroom and if they do nothing to prevent this from happening, the outcome proves to be disastrous for both types of participants. The student will conclude that his or her behavior is permissible, and will draw away from learning, therefore it is essentially important for the teacher to explain to the child the importance to learn. Though we understand that learning cannot be forced. Learning becomes a process for an individual where he or she feels comfortable with learning whether it's in a classroom or at home. Mike Rose explains in "Lives on the Boundary" that "It is what we are excited about that educates us" (106). Rose's quote can be applied to children at an early age, just as well as it can be applied to adults. Definitely children learn when they enjoy learning, but also they need some control over the teacher (s) decisions. "Authoritarian control is often destructive to students who are in the primary grades, and eventually upper grades teachers have difficulty dealing with children who were taught with an authoritarian teacher" (Jones 215). Children in primary grades feel the urge to talk about their problems, fears, or even show their knowledge, but at the same time they want to be listened too.

LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Theoretical review Meta–analytic reviews reveal contradictory results with regard to the relationship between teacher training and student achievement. Hanushek (1989, 1997; Fehrler et al., 2009) concluded that there is no strong evidence to suggest that teacher training and teacher education has a positive effect on student achievement. On the other hand, Greenwald et.al (1996) and Kane (2013) find a strong relationship between teacher education and student achievement. Using a narrative synthesis of individual studies, Wayne and Youngs (2003) argue that students' test scores in English, History and Science do not provide sufficient empirical evidence for drawing conclusions regarding the nature of the relationship between teachers' education and training and students' achievement. 2.1.1 Aspects of teacher training and education that affect teacher quality The government plays a major role in determining the qualification of teachers. Governments influences teacher quality by setting teacher qualification at a high level to so as to ensure satisfactory teacher quality while taking into account the supply of qualified individuals. Minimum qualification requirements for teachers tend to change over time. Teachers employed in the past may not meet the set qualifications for new teachers, (UNESCO, 2012, 2014).

Almost always, there is a question pending as to what should the situation be inside a classroom.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Most students especially those younger need to be attracted to a particular subject or topic, one that just grabs their attention, in order to pay attention and to learn from that subject. One such example is when I entered the 8th grade with a hate for mathematics, but after being taught by a very well educated professor, I managed to start liking algebra and becoming more and more intrigued as the course went on. When I used to be in elementary school, I would only find interest in those topics I thought were exciting and interesting such as science and drawing. Whenever a teacher would tell us to draw or sketch a picture, a smile immediately grew on my face and I lightened up with joy since I loved to draw. My love of art made me one of the most talented kids at school with that gift. I believe that a dedicated person must push his or her limitations to the maximum of their potentials to be educated and to succeed even though he or she may not like what theyre being taught, but that person must still push themselves to become interested in order to do well in that subject at the same time. Another example is how I am studying to go into the pharmacy field by taking classes I may dislike such as biology, physics, and calculus.

This worksheet demonstrates another way I asked my students to construct knowledge; by examining a document (in this case a difficult, non–narrative poem) for its details, to try to sum those details to meaning (comprehension) and to try to figure out how the student knew how to sum those details (metacognition). While the practical, classroom end of this worksheet was a brainstorm regarding the details of the poem and an increasingly specific investigation of the diversity of potential meanings in the poem, by allowing my students to write before speaking –– to gather their thoughts and ideas before even a spoken brainstorm –– I allowed each of my students to feel as though they had something to contribute to the class and to the classes' construction of a reading (or a series of readings!) of the poem. Allowing students to chart the known, this activity ultimately allowed my students to make the leap to charting a small section of ideas that were, before this activity, unknown. Before students can trust each other enough to share their ideas –– and to construct knowledge with each other –– the teacher must engage students in activities to foster classroom community.

This study examines the interaction between student and teacher in poor urban environments. The specific relevance to my topic is astounding. The article focuses on Black youth, the majority demographic in DCPS, while also highlighting the satisfaction associated with differing variables. If DCPS students are happier and more willing to contribute to the praxis of learning then positive feedback will result. Happier children mean happier teachers. The resulting progression is one of mutualistic benefit toward knowledge. This article concludes that bolstered social relationships effects students' perception of school. Two specific arguments are less specific to my topic, but still must be noted. First, our researcher finds that by having substantial amounts of individual seatwork, the teacher is able to work individually with more students. Second, when those lower preforming students acted–out they received harsher punishment than those with greater academic success.

Teacher Student Relationship With Students School begins at age five, or for some even before that, and so begins the excruciating routine of waking up at an early hour to be ready to be at a place where you didn't ask to be, and have an older stranger teach you about something you don't understand. However, in the life of a human being this routine that goes on for years is essential to our lives, as well as those older strangers who teach about subjects that you don't understand. Those older strangers have the responsibility to pass on knowledge to their students and the given knowledge, whether taken or not, will determine their future. Is everyone comfortable or willingly to accept the teachings of a total stranger? Of course not, therefore this total stranger has to have an identification to the students, but not necessarily just a name. Teachers must develop a relationship with their students because teacher–student relationships affect a student 's academic excellence. As a student myself I witness the rebellious outburst of students that will at no end do everything, but be productive in class. What is the root of this refusal towards learning? This resistance to education is a nature acquired from the famous phrase that "school is boring" or "school is hard" and those rebellious students disengage themselves from the class and teacher.

It is important for students to feel important and needed in the classroom. Students need to be able to identify and see their purpose needed in the classroom, as well as their purpose as a student. As students identify their purpose in the classroom, they are able to feel supportive in the classroom. This allows for positive bonds to form and for students to become fully engaged in the classroom experience. Teachers have the opportunity to provide students with an inclusive, positive, and enjoyable experience, and failure to do this will cause negative effects on the students socially and academically. In a study conducted by Marzano, Marzano, and Pickering, positive–teacher student relationships build the foundation for classroom management (Jones & Jones, 2016, p.52). It is almost impossible for a teacher to manage a class without a positive relationship with the students. Students who do not have a positive relationship with a teacher will not follow rules or obey the teacher. Ways to establish positive relationships with students include, providing them with a safe space, respect, showing care, and being culturally competent. Being culturally competent is an essential to build a positive relationship with students.

During an academic school year, as well as throughout the duration of a teacher's career as an educator, it is important to build teacher–student, teacher–parent, teacher–administrator, and teacher–teacher relationships.

With or without research or theory, each member of the class community knows the importance of the teacher–student relationship. As an administrator in an elementary school with both the highest gifted percentage in the count and a visually–impaired cluster unit, it is important that I understand the scientific data surrounding forming relationships to support teacher understanding of its impact on their classroom climate and to encourage methods of class community building. The problem, therefore, is twofold – what is the impact of Exceptional Student Education (ESE) students on teacher–student relationships and what preconceived notions do teachers have that impact their relationships with their students. This is important to the field of education as we transition from the old model of secluding ESE students in self–contained classrooms to the newer model of inclusion. As teachers better understand the research, their behaviors affecting relationship building will be of greater import and, thus, a priority.

A social capital in a classroom setting is defined as having a caring teacher – student relationship where the students feel that they are both cared for and expected to succeed. Social capitals can work in many different ways, it can reduce dropout rates by nearly half, help encourage the idea of going to college and furthering their education, and provide support for their academic endeavors (Gallagher). The simple task of just getting to know the students can have such a huge positive impact on the student's social development. If a teacher really wants to create a positive relationship with their students so they can further help their academic development, it would be wise for them to communicate with their students. A key part of communication is actively listening to what the other is saying. Actively listening, in regards to teachers and students, means that the teacher should not just listen to what the students are saying but listen for the meaning behind it. This will develop a trust between the teacher and the student and would help grow a positive relationship (Zakrzewski). When a teacher actively listens to their students, they will become aware of any difficulties that they are having.

  • 39. Student Teacher Relationship Is Imperative Essay Student teacher relationship is imperative to student learning. "Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn" is a quote by Benjamin Franklin, that explains how vital student–teacher rapport is to critical learning (Staff, A. H., 2016). It is central that students feel comfortable in the classroom, and there is mutual respect between the teacher and students. For my fieldwork, I observed student–teacher relationship in two schools. One school, Alden Place Elementary School holds grades 3rd– 6th, and the other, Millbrook High School holds grades 9th– 12th. They are both very different in the sense that one includes high–school students, and the other includes elementary students. My first student– teacher rapport observation took place at Alden Place Elementary School. The school is 50% male, 50% female, 85% white, 1% Asian or Native Hawaiian, 2% Multiracial, 3% Black or African American, and 9% Hispanic or Latino. Alden Place has a 17% population of students with disabilities, 1% population of English Language Learners, and lastly, 27% population of economically disadvantaged students (Budget Information, 2016–2017).

The personality of his teacher helped him to keep learning and be successful in his field, thus allowed me to connect my experiences with past teachers and how similar the messages we gained through our teachers are alike and made us progressive. Scudder's professor presented him with a difficult assignment which required him to only examine a fish using only his eyes.

Students who portray positive attitudes and earn more trust from their teachers as a result would pose this question. When I did my Community Service Learning (CSL) placement at my Elementary/Junior High school for a past education course, one thing I gained out of this experience was establishing relationships with not only teachers (ie. visiting former teachers after school and observing clubs I once attended), but also the students I tutored (namely groups of students from Grades 2 and 9 as well as a second– grade class). Putting this topic in mind, I decided to discuss the research behind the benefit as I reflect through my experiences with the rapport I built through the perspective of these students (and assuming I took the role of a teacher). Research shows that this often leads to higher academic achievement and motivation as well as improved emotional and behavioural strengths and difficulties. (Raufelder, Scerber, & Wood, 2016; Sointu, Savolainen, Lappalainen, & Lambert, 2017; Poulou, 2015) Though I find these effects are true, the research is not entirely representative of my experiences as the experiments were done in different countries.

The main purpose of this study was to explore the relationship and influence between a teacher expectations and student achievements in class. Does that student whom the teacher is always giving extra lessons and is always more patient with or whom always takes the longest to answer a question, and is always called on, is he the one who is getting the most out of that class? According to several studies and experiments they all say yes and student does achieve to be more successful if their teacher takes a little of their time to help the student and let them answer that hard question with more time than the other students. Studies have shown that teachers' expectations are more likely to influence the student's performance. The attitude of the teacher can change how they see the actions of a student and allow them to make different opinions. As shown in Elisha Babad, Frank Bernieri, and Robert Rosenthal's study (1991) from the book Social Psychology written by David G Myers, students are very sensitive to teachers' facial expressions and body movements (111; bk.ch3). A teacher's attitude can influence their judgment of a student in class room behavior; namely, their own attitudes can cause the fundamental attribution error to occur as well as the Self– fulfilling prophecy, as reflected in a student's performance.

In recent years a discussion regarding education has increasingly emphasized teachers' role in promoting student academic growth through personalism. Phillippo explains personalism as, policies that ask teachers' to develop individual relationship with students at a presumed level for student achievement (2012, p. 441). Urban school districts have promoted these policies by converting larges schools into smaller schools. Research on student–teacher relationships generally supports policies of personalism" (Phillippo, 2012, p. 441). Students who have a professional relationship with their teachers tend to be more successful in school. This challenges us to consider how teachers' practices directly influence what and how students learn, and what can be done to support teachers' contributions. Summary of The Study Phillippo conducted this qualitative research study over a time span of a year and thirty–four months. She wanted to investigate how students from non–dominant groups responded to teacher personalism. Data shows that policies of personalism do promote student– teacher relationships, however; tension arose when the participants felt that teacher personalism was threatening their privacy or agency (Phillippo, 2012, p. 441).

CHAPTER 3: Research Methodology Introduction The purpose of this non–experimental quantitative study will be to examine the relationship between teacher's assessment of their school's implementation of EBS, teacher's demographic information, and student referrals. This chapter will discuss the proposed research methods of this study. First, the research design and rationale of the study will be discussed, followed by a restatement of the research questions. Next, data collection and analysis will be discussed. Research Design and Rationale The present study will utilize a non–experimental quantitative predictive design. The non–experimental design is appropriate, as random assignment, control groups, and manipulation of an independent variable will not be employed (Cramer, D., 1998). A quantitative design was chosen over a qualitative design, as this study seeks to make inferences based on quantifiable results rather than assess individuals' experiences (Craighead & Nemeroff, 2001). Because the aim of this study is to use several variables to predict student behavior, the predictive design is most appropriate (Craighead & Nemeroff, 2001). This study will use a multiple linear regression to evaluate the relationship between teacher's assessment of their school's EBS implementation, teacher demographics, and student behavior in an urban middle school.

"Three factors affect students' ability to satisfy the Three Cs in the classroom: the quality of the teacher–student relationship; the strength of the classroom climate for success; and the appropriateness of the classroom structure" (Albert, 2012). The best way to satisfy the Three Cs through the use of encouragement strategies. If we are positive and encouraging, "people do better when they feel better, and that which people perceive affects the way they feel. For example, if you receive a compliment, then a positive feeling emerges" (Marshall, 2005). The first C is helping students feel Capable. When students feel good about themselves they have fulfilled the feeling of capable.

Often, teachers believe that if you are able to "control" or "demand" good behavior; this represents effective classroom management. It was once said that a child doesn't care how much you know, until they know how much you care. When teachers build rapport with their students; students often present positive behavior. According to Jones, Bailey & Jacob, (2014, p.20) teachers who establish and maintain high–quality, trusting relationships with students can draw on their history of positive interactions in order to address classroom management challenges as they arise. One can refer this as making deposits and withdrawals. The relationship presents itself as a bank account; when you contiousily build rapport with students you have are making deposits of positive interactions. So, that when those problematic encounters, challenges or (withdrawals); take place there is a positive balance. Once this occurs there is evidence of effective communication and relationships between students and teachers.

Marzano discusses the teacher's personality not necessarily pertaining to the quality of T–S relationship. The teacher should act professionally as an advocate. Marzano claims that "Rather, the most effective T–S relationships are characterized by specific teacher behaviors: exhibiting appropriate levels of dominance; exhibiting appropriate levels of cooperation; and being aware of high–needs students." Dominance does not mean force or control but rather providing a clear purpose and strong guidance to students, both academically and behaviorally (Marzano, 2003). Teacher–student relationships are also formed as a result of how things are run and the atmosphere of a classroom, primarily routines and expectations.

Children spend approximately 5 to 7 hours a day with a teacher .We ask ourselves what is considered a good teacher? All of us have gone through schooling, and if fortunate had a favorite teacher. A positive relationship between the student and the teacher is difficult to establish, but can be found for both individuals. The qualities for a positive relationship can vary to set a learning experience approachable and inviting the students to learn. A teacher and student who have the qualities of good communications, respect in a classroom, and show interest in teaching from the point of view of the teacher and learning from a ...

The arrogant or offensive teacher will lack these positive qualities due to his or her lack of control over the children. Teachers should assert that they should also be treated with respect .Teachers can blend their warmth and firmness towards the students in their classroom, but with realistic limits. Teachers who are in a classroom might have experienced one time or other students who are disruptive or find learning boring. Teachers understand that if this behavior continues in the classroom and if they do nothing to prevent this from happening, the outcome proves to be disastrous for both types of participants. The student will conclude that his or her behavior is permissible, and will draw away from learning; therefore it is essentially important for the teacher to explain to the child the importance to learn. Though we understand that learning cannot be forced, learning becomes a process for an individual where he or she feels comfortable with learning whether it's in a classroom or at clinics. Children in first year feel the urge to talk about their problems, fears, or even show their knowledge, but at the same time they want to be listened too. The student will feel valued and respected.

Student-Teacher Relationships in Teacher Program Education s The learning contained in this example may result unsubstantial for many readers but, in essence, it illustrates a genuine piece of knowledge that is often displayed in schools and has been long time neglected in Teacher Education Programs. Making the student to use the dictionary may be not among any canonical response to the problem (not knowing the concept of condensation). It may be thought that it should have been better to tell the Student Teacher to prepare more consciously the key concepts of the lesson next time. We agree.

For us we have in this example, in the very end, an expert teacher's ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The mentoring interactions portray habitual classroom situations that help thinking over particular Student Teachers' performance (Clarke, 2001) eliciting, as a consequence, tacit knowledge that is only in the expert teacher' mind. These genuine interactions between an expert teacher and a student teacher triggers critical reflection processes on teaching experiences and invites to further think of what can be done in similar future situations. In this chapter our objective is twofold: On one hand we aim at (1) stressing the relevance of seizing the practical knowledge that emerge in mentoring conversations –as the one contained in the previous example– leaving other aspects of the interaction behind (i.e. personal engagement, emotional commitment, roles, etc.); and, on the other hand, (2) describing a possible procedure that may help to make that practical knowledge not only explicit but also understandable and useful for other teachers. Along these lines, and according to the objectives, we will structure the chapter into two major sections: theoretical underpinnings in teacher mentoring; and methods to analyze mentoring interactions. The first one will revolve around positioning research efforts around three main viewpoints and highlighting the branch that actually stress that mentoring is a form of making expert teachers' practical knowledge accessible/explicit. We will end that section by stating that practical knowledge not only ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
