In addition, pre-service teachers need to know the fundamentals of what being a teacher involves, the certification process to follow which leads to becoming a teacher, the standards bodies which exist for content areas, and how to communicate effectively with students, parents, administrators and other stakeholders in the community.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW159883922 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span class=\"TextRun SCXW42403320 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42403320 BCX0\">In this chapter, you will explore your motivation for teaching, and reflect upon those educators who impacted you. As you reflect on the experiences that these educators provided to you, your own preferences in terms of teaching and learning will come to the forefront, allowing you to explore and identify your own philosophy of teaching and learning. A teaching philosophy is like a lighthouse; when questions of effectiveness arise, a teacher\u2019s philosophy is a guide to appropriate educational actions. While your philosophy will likely evolve and change as your teaching expertise and confidence develop, the initial philosophy will provide a foundation to build upon. You will also learn about twenty-first century skills and literacies that meet the needs of a quickly evolving economy and therefore are changing approaches to teaching. You will understand the importance of the integration of teacher content knowledge and teacher pedagogical knowledge. The development of each of these forms of knowledge shape your performance as a teacher. Finally, within content and pedagogical knowledge, you will gain awareness of focal points which shape your identity as a teacher.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW42403320 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span>","rendered":"<div class=\"textbox learning-objectives\">\n<h3>Learning Objectives<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"TextRun SCXW128321560 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW128321560 BCX0\">Determine your motivation\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW128321560 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW128321560 BCX0\">and goals\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW128321560 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW128321560 BCX0\">for becoming a teacher<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW128321560 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"TextRun SCXW225519808 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW225519808 BCX0\">Write your initial philosophy of teaching<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW225519808 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"TextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\">Demonstrate an\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\">understanding of Twenty<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\">&#8211;<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\">First Century<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\">\u00a0Skills &amp;<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW218461592 BCX0\">\u00a0Literacies<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW218461592 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"TextRun SCXW62809976 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW62809976 BCX0\">Identify focal points for teacher content<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW62809976 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW62809976 BCX0\">\u00a0and pedagogical knowledge<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW62809976 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"TextRun SCXW65040534 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW65040534 BCX0\">Identify and explain teacher focal points: philosophy, content, and communication<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW65040534 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW159883922 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW159883922 BCX0\">Pre-service teachers require a strong foundation that includes an understanding of the student\u2019s motivation for becoming a teacher, reflection on the ethics of an educator, awareness of and identification of their own philosophies of education, and an understanding of twenty-first-century skills and literacies.
