 TRUTH




EMPHASIS ON TEST SCORES – “ACHIEVEMENT AT ALL COSTS”
STUDENTS MUST FIT TO CURRICULUM NEEDS NOT
CURRICULUM MUST FIT TO STUDENT NEEDS.
PE, VISUAL ARTS, & PERFORMING ARTS HAVE BEEN REDUCED
EVEN PHASED OUT - CRITICAL TO STUDENT DEVELOPMENT.
 EXTRA TIME AND REQUIREMENTS IN READING, SCIENCE,
AND MATH HAVE BEEN ADDED. THIS FOCUS IS NOT
WORKING (RENZULLI, N. D; FORD, HOWARD, HARRIS, &
TYSON, 2000)
WE HAVE FAILED TO BALANCE THE ACADEMIC AND HUMAN
SIDE OF TEACHING.


1. THE MASTER TEACHER BELIEVES THAT TEACHING IS BOTH AN ART AND A SCIENCE
AND IS AFFECTED BY BOTH TEACHER ATTITUDES AND SKILLS.
2. THE MASTER TEACHER’S WORK BEGINS WITH AND IS SUPPORTED BY CORE BELIEFS
ABOUT LEARNING, LEARNERS, AND THE VALUE OF TEACHING AND LEARNING TO
SOCIETY AS A WHOLE.
3. MASTER TEACHERS BELIEVE THEY MUST BE STUDENT-CENTERED AND THAT ALL
STUDENTS CAN LEARN.
4. MASTER TEACHERS BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE THE CATALYST FOR STUDENT
LEARNING.
5. THE MASTER TEACHER IS A LIFELONG LEARNER AND A REFLECTIVE PRACTITIONER.
6. THE MASTER TEACHER IS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE WITH ALL TYPES OF LEARNERS, AND
HIS OR HER STUDENTS DEMONSTRRATE THAT THEY ARE PREPARED FOR LEARNING AT
THE NEXT LEVEL AS A RESULT OF HIS OR HER TEACHING.
7. THE MASTER TEACHER IS RESPECTFUL OF STUDENTS, PARENTS, AND COLLEAGUES.
8. THE MASTER TEACHER IS A MENTOR, COACH, AND ADVOCATE FOR STUDENTS AND
COLLEAGUES.
9. THE MASTER TEACHER IS HIGHLY COMPETENT IN HIS OR HER SUBJECT MATTER AND
IS PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT HE OR SHE TEACHES AND FOR LEARNING AS A WHOLE. AS
A RESULT, HE OR SHE ENGENDERS IN STUDENTS A PASSION FOR LEARNING.
CHAPTER 2
THE RESEARCH
 CORE BELIEFS




10. THE MASTER TEACHER BELIEVES THAT HIGH EXPECTATIONS, GOOD RELATIONSHIPS
WITH STUDENTS, AND WORKING COOPERATIVELY WITH COLLEAGUES ARE VITAL KEYS
TO BEING A MASTER TEACHER.
11. THE MASTER TEACHER HAS A CONCERN FOR THE WHOLE STUDENT, WHOLE SCHOOL,
WHOLE DISTRICT, WHOLE COMMUNITY, AND WHOLE OF THE PROFESSION.
12. MASTER TEACHING REQUIRES KNOWING STUDENTS AS WELL AS THE TEACHER
KNOWS THE CURRICULUM IN ORDER TO INSPIRE AND MOTIVATE STUDENTS AND FIT
THE CURRICULUM TO STUDENTS. THIS IS VITAL BECAUSE FITTING STUDENTS TO THE
CURRICULUM WILL NOT RESULT IN LEARNING FOR A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF THE
CLASS.
13. THE MASTER TEACHER GIVES BACK TO THE PROFESSION IN MANY WAYS, INCLUDING
BY NURTURING THE DESIRE IN OTHERS THAT THEY TOO CAN AND SHOULD ASPIRE TO
BE MASTER TEACHERS.
