What makes you feel welcome or
less-than-welcome in a class or subject?
As a teacher, I always do
welcome to my students in my biology
classroom. I believe that welcoming students
always inspiring and increases willingness to participate in the classroom.
If we( as a teacher ) will not welcome to the different cultures of students than students decrease their affective
filters. We know that school is full of multicultural students. A student comes from different
parts of the countries. They have their
own culturally specific experiences and thoughts. We have to respect their self-efficacy as a belief and their cultural specific experiences.
According to Piaget different students have their own cultural experience and belief. As a teacher, it is
very important to give the space to share their knowledge and ideas in the
class. Vygotsky also stated that every student has
their own cognitive abilities. For example, ELLs students have their own learning capabilities.
most second language learners take time
to adjust to the new system. They need time to understand the
academic language therefore, we need to
give them wait time and listens to their thoughts. However, being a teacher it is a responsibility to ask students about
themselves to share their ideas and always welcome in the classroom.
Thank you
