Roles and Relationships in Learning and Teaching: A Case Study of the Development and Worldwide Implementation of a New Religious CurriculumHawkley, Melissa Noel 07 July 2014 (has links) (PDF)
This in-depth case study examines perceptions of teacher and learner roles and relationships that were the basis for common understanding in the creation and implementation of the new youth curriculum, Come, Follow Me: Learning Resources for Youth, for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The assumptions and beliefs of teachers and learners directly influence each other in their perception of their roles and thus, directly influence the type of teaching and learning they engage in. The curriculum was intentionally designed to help members of the Church teach and learn for conversion. Teachers who understand both their role and that of the learners, can invite this type of learning through their teaching. Reciprocity of roles, living what you teach, and principle-based teaching, all contribute to correct perceptions of roles and relationships. Teacher councils—where participants counsel together, look for the good in each other's teaching, practice, and then reflect— help facilitate a climate where teachers risk and try new things, break out of old paradigms of misperceptions of roles and relationships, and move toward an effective teacher role.
