Philosophy of Education
To be an effective educator, I believe one must have a foundation of moral and ethical principles. An educator should support the learning environment, while being flexible and teachable. He or she must also lay a foundation of beliefs on how individuals learn, seeking to enable individuals to reach their optimal potential. My personal educational philosophy begins with believing all children are unique individuals, with different emotions and different styles of learning. An educator has the incredible challenge of attempting to meet those needs. As an educator, I believe all children deserve the opportunity and resources that would better enable them to reach their maximum potential.
Classroom management is essential to effective teaching. While the reasons for misbehavior can be attention seeking, health problems, boredom, or simple frustration, how the problem behavior is dealt with will eliminate, decrease, or increase the behavior. Therefore, teachers should evaluate and determine appropriate strategies to increase or decreas...
The education requirements include having an associate's degree in dental hygiene and a bachelor or master’s degree required for research, teaching, or the clinical practice in public or school health programs. A daily routine for a Dental Hygienist is waking up to get to work at least a half hour before the first patient comes. They then should look over the charts about the patient’s situation with their teeth and see what medical treatment they need. They then bring the patient in and perform the treatment. Lastly, they charge the patient for the certain treatments, like the cleaning, and then for say a filling, they will charge them separately, and then the patient will leave. Soon after they will start all over
You should also find out the experience and number of years of practice of the orthodontic dentist.
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry which involves the prevention and correction of irregularities in the teeth. The ones who practice orthodontics and specialize the field are called orthodontists. An orthodontist has specialized and in depth knowledge about the human teeth and jaws. Providing treatment for people who have problems associated with their teeth and jaws has been their goal. The treatment provided will be varied from person to person depending on their ailment. The orthodontists make sure that our teeth and jaws are in good condition.
Orthodontic treatment can greatly improve ones’ self-esteem, attitude, and make ones’ life happier. A beautiful smile can always brighten someone day tremendously. The benefits of orthodontic treatment go beyond the apparent physical changes of an important and straighter smile; it is likewise a great way to mend a person’s overall self-image. Having a beautiful straight smile is imperative, even more important is the essential to alleviate any possible health problems associated with the teeth or jaw. Crooked teeth, poor eating and oral hygiene habits, or jaw problems may contribute to improper cleaning of teeth, leading to tooth decay and, possibly, gum disease or total tooth loss. Over time, excessive strain on gum tissue and the bone that maintenances the teeth may harm the jaw joints leading to problems such as headaches or face and neck pain. Orthodontic problems that go untreated can lead to abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, chewing and digestion difficulties, speech impairments, and self -esteem problems (www.grorthodontics.com).
Becoming an orthodontist requires specific education, including: four years of college, four years of dental school, and two to three years of orthodontic residency. (Chaekal). The aspiring orthodontist may major in either health, premedical studies, or life studies. There are also required college courses such as biology, chemistry, and physics. This person will be prepared for dental school through classroom lectures, and laboratory instruction on the physiology of the human body, especially focusing on the structure of the mouth and jaw. (Education Portal, “Majors for an Aspiring Orthodontist”). After completing four years of college, they move on to dental school. However, it is not always a guaranteed acceptance since dental schools are quite competitive, and expensive.
Not everyone aspires to have two different careers in life, and some even find it hard to figure out just one to begin with. Orthodontics and Dentistry are two different but similar jobs down the same career path. They both require an insane amount of time, dedication, and schooling. When it comes to job description, work environment, and salary, both can be compared and contrasted.
Orthodontists and dentist both help patients maintain healthy oral care, but in different ways. Dentistry is a general medical field that deals with the teeth, gum, nerves, and jaw. Orthodontics is a specialty within dentistry that specializes on adjusting bites, occlusion, and straightness of teeth; they study the art and science of orthodontia. Orthodontia is the study and treatment of malocclusions due to irregular tooth positions and adverse jaw growth. Orthodontia comes from the Greek. “Orthos” meaning proper or straight and “odous” meaning tooth. The main resemblance amongst dentist and orthodontist is that they both focus on making sure you have healthy oral care. An orthodontist can work in a dental office and provide the same care as a dentist.
While thinking about my personal philosophy of education and such questions as "What is the purpose of education?' or "What is the role of the teacher?" I have come to realize that my personal views can only be described as eclectic. I find that I agree with some (but not all) of the tenets of many of the major philosophies so far as education is concerned. My personal belief is that there is no single "way" of educating or education that is correct for every child, and as a future teacher I believe that I must be willing to be flexible and adaptable to any given situation , utilizing my knowledge of the various philosophies of education to create an approach to education that will provide each student with a learning environment and a learning experience that is best for him or her.
I believe that education should be looked as as a desire to acquire all possible knowledge, not as a requirement or something that can be formally examined by standardized tests. There are numerous ways that children learn and I want to be able to encourage as much learning as possible for each child. I believe that using many methods of instruction is the most effective way of teaching to these various ways of learning. These methods include group work, hands-on activities, buddy work, etc. Assessment of children should follow the same idea. When children get the chance to perform on different assessments, they can adequately show their strengths and weaknesses. I do not wish to rely on tests only to assess the students in my class. Some types of assessment that I think should be inlcuded in a classroom are journals, presentations, projects and interviews. I also think that the classroom should be run with the help of the children. By distributing jobs among the children and everyone participating in the classroom, the students will form a sense of togetherness. This will eventually create a community within the classroom. I feel that this community of learners is essential for the students to perform effectively and efficiently. They will feel comfortable in the environment and will not be afraid to take risks or ask questions. The teacher will also be a member of this community and will not be seen as unapproachable or as the only leader.

One of the most important things to me as a teacher is that I am a leader, for 180 days out of the year students will come in my classroom and look to me to learn. I believe in leadership by example,. I must show up each morning prepared and ready to work, stay after school if necessary and do whatever it takes to get the job done. I will present a professional appearance and be a role model for my students. I will be consistent in my classroom management, discipline and keep my students on task.

Teaching is a daunting task that I do not intend to take lightly. Becoming a teacher has been a dream of mine for several years. I always knew that teaching would be the career for me, especially when I began working in the school system as a substitute secretary. I loved working in the school environment; coming in contact with children everyday made me realize how much I would enjoy teaching a classroom full of students.
When many people hear about the term “landscape”, they immediately think that it means “nature”. The natural landscape does play an important role in our society but what is more important is the landscape that we make and occupy. So, what exactly is “landscape”? The term can be illiterate in many ways but the definition given by the European Landscape Convention is perhaps the most useful and widely agreed one. It states that a landscape is ‘an area, as perceived by people, whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and human factors.’ This definition captures both the idea of landscape being physical like a tract of land, but also something that is mind and social shared, something that is perceived by the people. When it comes to Landscape Architecture, the International Federation of Landscape Architects says that ‘Landscape Architect conduct research and advise on planning, design, and stewardship of the outdoor environment and spaces, both within and beyond the built environment, and its
