Transcript:

The question “Why do students achieve so much with one teacher and so little under the guidance of another teacher?” is often asked. I believe, as a result of having done research in this area for some time, developing good classroom management is a determining factor. Respect is paramount. Students need to feel respected and in turn need to develop respect for the teacher. I’ve spoken to kids who delight in mucking up in class and I’ve talked to their teachers. A common non-verbal cue they both tend to give is rolling their eyes. “Oh, that class,” the teacher recoils. “Oh him!” the student groans. What’s clear here is a lack of respect. And don’t start to think as a teacher you’ll be able to fake it. Students are quick to smell a rat. Teachers who are not able to respect their students are in the wrong game.

* Click on the correct answer

A common non-verbal cue they both tend to give is rolling their eyes. “Oh, that class,” the teacher recoils. “Oh him!” the student groans. Research indicates that students do better with one teacher than another as a result of good classroom management. A key feature of this is respect. Students quickly ascertain if a teacher lacks real respect. Why do students achieve so much more when they have teachers who show minimal respect for them and their classmates? There is no clear answer for this. However, at the moment there is little empirical data to draw meaningful conclusions. Often we fall back on anecdotal evidence. Non-verbal cues are key to developing respectful relationships in school environments. Rolling your eyes is a key indicator of a lack of respect, as are negative verbal responses. In order to promote effective learning both teachers and students need to show mutual admiration and respect.

Option 2: "Research indicates that students do better with one teacher than another as a result of good classroom management. A key feature of this is respect. Students quickly ascertain if a teacher lacks real respect."

Explanation: This option accurately captures the main idea of the text, which discusses how effective classroom management, particularly through respect, influences student achievement. It reflects the author's research findings and emphasizes the significance of respect in the teacher-student relationship.

Option 1: "A common non-verbal cue they both tend to give is rolling their eyes. “Oh, that class,” the teacher recoils. “Oh him!” the student groans."

Explanation: This option focuses on a specific example of non-verbal communication between students and teachers, which is only a small part of the overall theme of the text. It does not summarize the main idea regarding the importance of respect and classroom management in student achievement.

Option 3: "Why do students achieve so much more when they have teachers who show minimal respect for them and their classmates? There is no clear answer for this. However, at the moment there is little empirical data to draw meaningful conclusions. Often we fall back on anecdotal evidence."

Explanation: This option contradicts the text by suggesting that students achieve more with teachers who show minimal respect, which is not supported by the author's argument. The text emphasizes the importance of respect, not a lack of it, and does not discuss the absence of empirical data.

Option 4: "Non-verbal cues are key to developing respectful relationships in school environments. Rolling your eyes is a key indicator of a lack of respect, as are negative verbal responses. In order to promote effective learning both teachers and students need to show mutual admiration and respect."

Explanation: While this option mentions respect and non-verbal cues, it does not encapsulate the main argument of the text regarding the overall impact of classroom management on student achievement. It focuses too much on non-verbal cues rather than the broader theme of respect as a critical factor in effective teaching.
