LECTURE AND DISCUSSION GUIDE
OV
Lesson 1
● Write on the chalkboard or project on a screen the question “What is teaching?” Begin Lesson 1 by
asking students to think about and then write down their personal definition of “teaching.” Ask students to share
their definitions aloud, and record the main ideas on the board. Review the list of definitions found in the text. Did
the definitions generated with the students match up with those cited in the textbook? Further discuss the idea of the
ED
teacher as an “artist” and the idea that “teachers are born, not made.” In your experience as a student have you been
exposed to teachers who were “artists” in the classroom?
● Review the current profile of the teaching profession using Table 1.1
??
● Direct students to form dyads and share with each other why they want to become a teacher. Refer
students to the Ask Yourself: Do I Want to Be a Teacher? Read through several of the accompanying questions,
emphasizing the importance of potential teachers knowing why they chose this particular profession.
● Show the Video Insight: Becoming a Teacher. After viewing the video, use the questions posed in the
Video Insight pop-up to guide your discussion.
