- W158574882 abstract "Even though today's students live in a world that offers them instant access to almost unlimited information, teachers still remain the primary source of knowledge. This knowledge cannot be effectively transmitted if teachers and students are unable to understand each other. It is important that what students hear is what teachers are in fact really trying to convey. This is not always true. Teachers, unaware that they are communicating poorly, often become frustrated when students fail to follow directions or complete assigned tasks. Often these situations occur because of communication misunderstandings or breakdowns. In order to get to the root of this communication problem some very basic question must be asked and answered. First of all, do students hear and really under stand what teachers are saying? Secondly, do teachers in fact say one thing and students hear another? After spending many hours in classrooms observing, speaking, and listening to teachers and students, the answers to these questions proved quite revealing. There currently exists in most classrooms today a subtle form of double-speak. Teachers constantly utilize phrases with double meanings. Although teachers know exactly what they wish their students to do, their inability to articulate these wishes is a primary source of ongoing frustration. Many of these double-speak phrases are easy to identify, and carry with them built in opportunities for misunderstanding. Those most commonly used include the following. Okay This is a simple, and yet very often misunderstood term. When teachers utilize this word they are in essence asking the students a very simple question. That question is, do you understand what we have been speaking about here? Students on the other hand hear a completely different question. They hear, do you agree? These are two very different interpretations of the word. As a result, students' actions are usually quite different from what teachers are anticipating. When this word for example is used in connection with course work, teachers, believing that their students understand, then move on to more complex ideas. The result is that students fall behind in their course work. This is due to the fact that they lack a basic understanding of the knowledge the teachers presented. Substituting a phrase that better assesses what students do in fact understand, and what materials need to be reviewed, can greatly enhance instruction. Teachers simply need to ask the following questions instead. Do you understand this work? Can you explain it to me in your own words?These two questions will more accurately determine if teachers may indeed move on to the next topic, or must instead more thoroughly review what they have just taught. This Is Important This often used phrase can best be translated as, this is important to me, the teacher. Students may not understand that these words mean that they will most likely be tested on the materials covered. While the meaning of the phrase is quite clear to the teacher, students rarely see the importance. If students consider the term at all, they might silently ask themselves, why? This usually unasked question goes to the heart of the problem. Why do teachers consistently fail to explain to students why certain materials are important, or at least why they are more important than other course work. If teachers were to take the time to explain the rationale as to why certain materials were more important than others, it would then follow that students would come to a better understanding of where to focus their energies when studying. You Need To ... Teachers must come to the understanding that students rarely see the need to do anything that they do not want to do in the first place. When teachers use the expression, ... you need to study, or you need to do your homework, what they are in actuality saying is that this is important. …" @default.
