1.1 Educational Models 2.1.2 Compare Educational Models, and Explain How They Impact The Classroom

There are several educational models that impact the classroom in different ways. Student-led models give students control over their learning and allow for peer teaching and seminars, developing self-confidence. Teacher-led models focus on behaviorism with the teacher in control, using direct teaching and reinforcement. Combined models have students and teachers working together using activities like games and discussions for social constructivism. Response to intervention identifies at-risk students and continually assesses and works with them to ensure comprehension, going through Bloom's taxonomy steps. These various pedagogies help engage different learners and expose students to multiple teaching styles.

2.1.2 Compare Educational Models, and explain how they impact the classroom

Within the classroom, an important job of a teacher is to find other options of teaching

styles that mix it up in the classroom and accommodate every type of learner. These methods or

pedagogies help the teacher combine student, teacher and combined teaching strategies into the

classroom to further learning abilities.

The first example of a pedagogy would be student led. This is where the students get the

opportunity to control how they are taught using a constructivism approach. During class we

talked about different ways this can be used in a classroom from cooperative learning, peer

teaching to student led socratic seminars. (Evidence 1.1.1) This gives students the opportunity to

speak up and gain self-confidence within the classroom and an outlet to advocate for their own

comprehension. Another form of teaching is the obvious teacher led that focuses on behaviorism,

which can also be known as operant conditioning. Teacher-led is what many classroom settings

look like, where the teacher is in control of the learning environment and ways of direct teaching,

modeling and demonstration. B.F Skinner can be used as a theorist to back this pedagogy up as

he supported the idea of behaviorism in that behavior is determined through enforcement of

reinforcements or punishments from an authority figure such as a teacher. (Evidence 1.1.2)

Following these two sperate teaching styles, there can also be a combined pedagogy where the

student and teacher work together to complete the lessons of the day. This is a form of social

constructivism shown through interactive games, field trips, white board problems or even whole

class discussions. (Evidence 1.1.3) The final pedagogy is Response to Intervention which can

also be identified as social constructivism. Examples of this would be where a teacher identifies
a student with a disability who is at risk and continually assesses them and works alongside them

to make sure they are able to comprehend the information. Bloom’s taxonomy can be shown

through this when a teacher takes the time to go through each taxonomy step to make sure the
