Pedagogy is the base building block of the art and profession of teaching.
To
achieve and maintain an appropriate pedagogy a teacher must ensure that they
present the curriculum in an organised, specific, relevant way to aid the
students
learning as much as possible. An effective teacher will take the curriculum
and mould and shape it to fit specifically to the needs of the students and
the contexts that the students are learning within.
The art and science of teaching is to be utilised in order to motivate, inspire,
demand, and correct each of their students. The use of multiple learning
paths
are an indicator of effective pedagogy, these learning paths are decided
in
relation to the needs, capacities and interests of their students. The appropriate
application of teaching strategies is an aspect of pedagogy, which can be
used
at different times and to different extents to be sensitive to the individual
learning differences of the students.
The type of teaching must be specific to the context in which the students
are
learning, the rate of learning determines whether the student should be in a
context of small or large group. Effective teachers must also be able to operate
modern technology and must be able to teach students the benefit of such technology.
The learning goals and aims expected of the students should be expressed to
the students
in order to involve them in their independent learning. When
engaging
the students in their goals and objectives a range of strategies can be
emplaced
to facilitate the student’s active engagement in their learning process.
