Explain the Way in Which You Would Establish Ground Rules with Your Learners, and Which Underpin Behaviour and Respect for Others

Having explored the three systems of setting setting rules during school term 2 of PTTLS course, it is evident that for the ground rules to be legal, determining the appropriate rule of ground rules setting is crucial to in nameing how the learners will be potential to respond to the ground rules and how this will later affect the session or sessions to be throw overboarded. The three methods of setting ground rules qualifying advantages and disadvantages depending on the mount of the lesson and the dynamics of the group.For example the instructor led process provides the instructor with a clear set of uniformed rules and offers the teacher an opportunity to consider issues which may otherwise brook been overlooked such as the encyclopaedism surroundings and health and safety issues. Although rigid in approach, using this method could offer the teacher more control of the group by notion of a hierarchal order within the class. The teacher would take on an tyrannous rol e with the learner having to adhere to the rules set.In an ideal situation the teacher would be able to invoke the rules when the group did not behave in a way that was appropriate to outcomes expected by the teacher. Unfortunately this prideful approach could also result in the learner becoming disengaged and de incite presenting the threat of the learner becoming disruptive especi every(prenominal)y as they have not had the opportunity to discuss their feelings on how they would like to have their learning environment conductd.This presents the teacher with the task of having enforce a set a rules which the disruptive learner has no avouchership or commitment to and hence places the teacher in a difficult position of having to find preference strategies to enforce boundaries which the individual feels is acceptable. The learner led method offers the students the responsibility to form their own rules and provides a forum for the learners to discuss and share their learning inescapably with their peers resulting in the rules being drawn based on the consensus of the group/class.The advantages of this bring on it easier for the teacher to enforce the rules if learners fall off track by thinly revisiting the rules as and when needed without appearing a disciplinarian allowing the teacher to extend a good relationship with the learners. The learners would have no choice exclusively to adhere to the rules as they would be bound by their own principles. This method does fail to acknowledge the teachers experience in understanding the dynamics of groups and how the teacher could provide a valuable contribution to ground rules which consider the postulate of individual learners.This method may also inhibit the teacher from delivering an impressive lesson as consideration may not have been applied as to whether the rules are suitable for the teaching environment. For instance taking into account the essential content of the lesson to be delivered and fo rgetting to include the health and safety of the learners. In establishing an effective set of ground rules for my learners, I would consider a method that offers the teacher the opportunity to create a learning environment that is safe, efficient and stimulating for the learner (Armitage, A, et al, Teaching & Training in Post requisite Education, OU, 2007).This would be implemented through getting the learners to negotiate their own ground rules with assistance from myself. I would take charge of facilitating the discussion to ensure all learners had an opportunity to contribute, and to ensure the inclusion of crucial rules which allow me to effectively deliver my session were also included. This would also incorporate aspects of health and safety. I would assist and encourage the learner to identify rules that would respect and value their own inescapably and that of their group allowing the learners to display respect for themselves, one another and the teacher.I harbinge r that by adopting this approach this will provide learners with an opportunity to express their own willingness reasons for wanting to learn, resulting in increased levels of motivation and commitment to the sessions. For the learners this method would supercharge ownership of the rules, as they would have to adhere to their own set of principles as opposed to principles set by me, therefore allowing me the opportunity to better manage any behavioural concerns in the event that learners steered away from the agreed rules set.
