- W146255269 abstract "[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Last month in this space, I encouraged each of you to be the best biology educator you can be. But what does that mean? What is a good biology educator? Being a good educator does not happen by accident. Anyone can teach, hut a good teacher displays key characteristics that are found both in and out of the classroom. Being a good teacher requires three essential qualities: expert knowledge of the subject matter, the practice of reflective teaching, and passion. Studies on effective have consistently and clearly identified one trait that forms the foundation of good teaching: expert knowledge of the subject matter (Woolfolk, 2004; Pendred, 2006). Expert knowledge can be acquired by being a good preservice biology teacher, dedicated to obtaining the necessary biological knowledge to be on the cutting edge of the discipline. I believe that each of us would agree that teachers who know and experience more can do more in the classroom to help students learn more effectively. Educational professional development is commonly used to support teachers in enhancing their knowledge, as well as modifying their methods and, ultimately, improving student achievement (Capps & Crawford, 2009). Another essential trait of good is the practice of reflective teaching (Woolfolk, 2004). Reflective teachers regularly examine their day-to-day situations as a way to analyze their skills, the subject matter, and the motivation of the students, with the goal of improving the overall learning process (Montgomery & Thomas, 1998). Reflective also engages educators in meaningful peer communication through sharing of individual practices, mentoring relationships, and recognition of the expertise and experience of particular teachers (Kilpatrick et al., 1997). Regular reflection prepares teachers for continuous growth throughout their careers. However, good isn't just about knowing the subject matter or reflecting on practices. Good involves PASSION, not only about biology but about many other things as well. Good biology educators share their love and passion for the discipline (Leblanc, 1998). They not only motivate their students to learn, they help them discover how to learn. The energy they radiate is infectious, inspiring their students and their colleagues to emulate them as much as possible. Being an active member of the National Association of Biology Teachers can help you reach your personal goal of being the best biology educator possible. Enhancing your professional knowledge, modifying your strategies, and ultimately improving the performance of your students can be facilitated by taking advantage of the many professional-development opportunities offered through membership in the NABT. Whether you attend the Annual Professional Development Conference, volunteer to become a field tester with one of the many NABT educational partners, receive a fellowship or grant, or simply read the latest entries on the BioBlog, your NABT membership will provide essential information and background needed to stay abreast of changes in biological knowledge and the latest knowledge on how to teach it. …" @default.
