We have an eTwinning project with students called FUSION as well. This platform allows us to share our project’s results,partners’ views and cultures. We as teachers set up a discussion’ Films about education our reviews’ on forum.After that,On 16th June,2021,We organised a live event for all the members of the TwinSpace and booked a virtual room and made a video-conference about education related movies with 20 participants.For many people,movies are one of life’s greatest pleasures.
I wanted to talk about comparison to two onscreen figures of teachers, that is John Keating (Dead Poets Society) and Terence Fletcher (Whiplash),of course mainly teachers’ attitude towards students.Attitude is very important when you are teachers.It affects students in many ways and can shape their learning experience.The teachers’ attitude towards the subject and student is significant in creating desire to learn in the students. It's about an inspirational, unconventional English teacher and his students at "the best prep school in America" and how he challenges them to question conventional views by such techniques as standing on their desks.His attitude and fresh perspective have deep impact on his students’ lives This movie is my all time favourite. Whiplash" is cinematic adrenalin. It tells us the conflict between a music student and his teacher.How far are you willing to push yourself to succeed? How far are you willing to push someone else to force them on the path to success?
We can discuss this music teachers’ teaching style and teacher attitude towards students. If you haven’t watched Whiplash,you should. these two teachers’ beliefs, their methods, and their impact on students As a cinematic image of teachers as heroes who inspire and support their students. Another feature common for many onscreen teachers, including Keating and Fletcher, is their being based on real-life figures. How can we describe Keating’s and Fletcher’s beliefs influencing their work? Keating believes his role is to build students’ confidence, make them feel they can change the world, and convince them they should seize the opportunities life provides them with. Fletcher is in favor of the view that students should not be praised, but pushed to their limits for the sake of results. What are the differences in Keating’s and Fletcher’s methodologies? Keating aims at replacing a traditional approach to education with demonstration and involving students in practical activities. For Fletcher, maintaining a sense of threat in his students is the key to motivating them. What is Keating’s and Fletcher’s impact on their students? Keating’s teaching makes his students pursue new interests or manage their personal matters effectively. Fletcher’s influence is best reflected by his students’ anxiety, exhaustion, and – in some cases – the increased drive to practice.
We as teachers are responsible for preparing students for their world-the world of the future. Teachers need to empower students to maximize their potential,discover passions and develop as collaborative, critical thinkers.Teachers play a big role in creating the conditions for students’ engagement at school.Positive attitudes influence students’ personality. Teaching is much more than saying and explaining. We,FUSION teachers from 6 different countries exchange good practices to renew the knowledge and widen the teaching methods with the help of digital devices.We also try to understand our students’ emotions such as their interests,fears and worries.We want to be able to make a positive difference in the lives of our students.
