Some students like classes where teachers lecture (do all of the talking) #1 (permalink) Sat Oct 24, 2009 19:37 pm   Some students like classes where teachers lecture (do all of the talking)
 

Some students like classes where teachers lecture (do all of the talking) in class. Other students prefer classes where the students do some of the talking. Which type of class do you prefer? Give specific reasons and details to support your choice.

The topic under discussion is about the way teaching is done in classes.Some teachers prefer to do all of talking while others prefer students to interact with them.In my view I prefer the later option where students are allowed to interact and ask questions when ever they get.The following paragraphs will explain the reasons for preferring the second option.

First reason for preferring the interactive session is liberty.As a student one should have liberty to ask questions at any time.This is because there might be some questions which will pop up only at the time of lecturing.After the lecture the questions never come in to mind and if the same questions come in exam then student will not perform well in exam.In fact I had been victim of this.This happened in my upper secondary physics class.During the lecture I got lot of questions about the topic being taught.But because of the way of teaching I couldn't ask the questions in class.In the final exams same questions came and I was not able to perform well.So the moral here is teachers should encourage students to ask questions as and when they prop up in mind.

Second reason why I think students should be part of class teaching is the fatigue caused because of continuous hearing. If a teacher doesn't give students a break and go on delivering lecture then at one point of time students tend to sleep.The point here is teachers should make the class more inquisitive.They should give students an opportunity to speak in class so that lecture is more interesting.One way is to ask students questions in between lectures or give students some time and ask their opinion on topics taught.Either way if students take part in classroom teaching then the performance of class also increases.

Finally I think teachers are the one who give lectures so they should pick the correct way of teaching.Like the saying goes like teacher like students.So the way of teaching has inadvertent impact on students career.

[quote="Sandy_321"]Some students like classes where teachers lecture (do all of the talking) in class. Other students prefer classes where the students do some of the talking. Which type of class do you prefer? Give specific reasons and details to support your choice.

The topic under discussion is about the way teaching is done in classes.Some teachers prefer to do all of talking while others prefer students to interact with them.In my view I prefer the later option where students are allowed to interact and ask questions (whenever) they (are offered the opportunity).The following paragraphs will explain the reasons for preferring the second option.

First reason for preferring the interactive session is liberty.As a student one should(be at) liberty to ask questions at any time.
This is because there might be some questions which will pop up only at the time of lecturing.
After the lecture the questions never come (into your) mind and if the same questions come in (an) exam then student(s) will not perform well in (that) exam.

In fact I have) been (a) victim of this (situation).
This happened in my upper secondary physics class. During the lecture I (had a) lot of questions (to answer) about the topic being taught, but because of the way of teaching I couldn't ask the questions (earlier) in class.
In the final exams (the) same questions came and I was not able to perform well, so the moral here is teachers should encourage students to ask questions as and when they (pop) up in (their mind(s).

Second reason why I think students should be part of class teaching is the fatigue caused because of continuous (listening).
If a teacher doesn't give students a break and (goes) on delivering (the) lecture, then at one point of time students tend to (fall) sleep.
The point here is (that) teachers should make the class more inquisitive.They should give students an opportunity to speak in class so that lecture is more interesting.
One way is to ask students questions in between lectures or give students some time and ask their opinion on (the) topics (being) taught.

Either way, if students take part in classroom teaching then the performance of (the) class also increases.

Finally I think teachers are the one(s) who give lectures, so they should pick the correct way of teaching.
(As) the saying goes, "Like teacher, like students".So the way of teaching has (an) inadvertent impact on (a) students career.

Stop writing. Swot up on ARTICLES and their usage. Your improvement is remarkable. take a break and do the ARTICLES. It will pay dividends in your essays.
