Description
Everyone has their own perspective of what best way and how to learning children. The perspective of the student Jeff Bliss was tired and angry about the teacher going off on her student so he became the voice of his classmates. His stand up and speak out about the teacher Julie Phung lack of teaching her student by hand out packet and not give face to face communication about the work. The perspective of teacher Julie Phung was to tell Jeff Bliss to left her class because his was disruptive but she did not care. She mumbling, you are wasting my time!
Diagnosis
At Duncanville High School World History class the teacher Julie Phung had been lack in teaching her student all year. But one day student Jeff Bliss got fed up with her teaching strategies and decided to give his opinion about the way she teach and encourage her to teaching a different strategies that she learn them. If you can just get up and teach them instead of handing them a freakin’ packet, yo (Bliss, 2013). There are kids in here who don’t learn like that, they need to teach face-to-face (Bliss, 2013). This was not a set up but the student Jeff Bliss was tired and angry about the way he was learning so he did something about it. The students can benefits from teaching if you have effective strategies and teacher need to improve her way of teaching. Student Jeff Bliss will lose because he will get suspended and teacher will get view by the board. The position I take on this issue that student Jeff Bliss should not confront her in public but wait until after class in a calm voice. I believe she did great by telling him to leave but not saying that any student are waste her time.
Solution
Teacher Julie Phung needs to improve her ways of teaching her student. Culturally relevant pedagogy does
