I'm attending Grand Canyon University to earn a master's in secondary education. My group came up with a number of questions that we are to ask teachers in order to write a research paper. If you want you can respond here or email me at bkucenski@gmail.com
Thanks.
1. How many years have you been teaching?
2. What is your opinion of No Child Left Behind? Has it changed the way you teach? What other changes, if any, have you seen in education due to NCLB?
3. What aspects of teaching have been the most challenging for you? What has been your most rewarding moment as a teacher?
4. How do you balance individual learning needs of your students while still challenging accelerated learners?
5. Comparing U.S. achievement against other industrialized countries, why do you think the U.S. ranks so poorly? Are you concerned with how our students “measure up” on a global scale?
6. During your years of teaching, what experiences have made the biggest impact on your professional career? Is there anything you would have done differently? If so, what would you have changed?
7. What characteristics do you think a strong administrator should exhibit? Have you seen a change in morale among teachers due to administrative decisions?
8. Is your political ideology or personal philosophy reflected in your teaching? What is your personal educational philosophy?
9. What has been the most surprising thing about teaching for you? What one piece of advice would you give to a first year teacher?
Thanks.
