Critical Book Review: Some Dilemmas of Teaching


The Title of the Book  : Some Dilemmas of Teaching
The Year                     : 1971
The Writer                   : Ernes Roe
Subtopic of the Book  : Why I Am a Teacher, The Virtues of Teachers
Pages                           : 1- 109

Introduction
Being a teacher will get some dilemmas. This situation will be a challenge and a stimulus a source of hope, rather than of despair.

Teachers are subjective insiders involved in classroom instruction as they go about their daily routines of instructing students, grading papers, taking attendance, evaluating their performance as well as looking at the curriculum. Traditional educational researchers who develop questions and design studies around those questions and conduct research within the schools are considered objective outside observers of classroom interaction. Teacher-researchers raise questions about what they think and observe about their teaching and their students' learning. They collect student work in order to evaluate performance, but they also see student work as data to analyze in order to examine the teaching and learning that produced it.

Almost everybody is an authority on matters educational. If teachers sometimes identified by loud voice and dogmatic opinions, they may be merely staking a claim to be heard above the din of self appointed experts. Teaching consists of an extremely complex set of tasks and the individual who believes he has mastered them fully is both rate and deluded.

Summary of content
The focus of the material that presented in this chapter is about the problems that common faced by a teacher. The first dilemma is one we face anytime we open up our classrooms for spontaneous discussion. How much should we encourage or even allow self-disclosure in the classroom? Effective teachers often draw more openness from their students. Thus, they are faced with more challenges. English teachers become aware of their students' problems especially through their responses to reading and through their writing. However, we lack the appropriate training, the time, and the resources to counsel any individual student with professional depth. 

Then a teacher is also face a circumstance which sometimes hurt him/ her. Sometimes the freedom is too much among the students. This can make them get angry and disappointed to the student, at last the process of study cannot run well.

In this book, the author also stated that a teacher is paragons: sensitivity. i do agree with this statement. We cannot blame a teacher who feel disappointed with the condition because sometimes even though he’ she has done as the nature, the student always make some trouble. For example, when a teacher is explaining the material in front of the class, two students are talking at the back. The teacher will think that his/ her explanation is not valued. The students do not enjoyed it although the others students are listening. Yet the teacher is so sensitive, moreover for a new teacher who has not experience about it.
To conduct this problem, a teacher should prepare not only their knowledge or hard skill, but also mentally or soft skill in facing so many different conditions.

Next, the author also stated that a teacher does everything in sincerity. As we know that in our country, the salary of a teacher is not high. For some honor teachers, they just paid low. This condition is so pity. Someone who teach the children of this country to read, to write, and to count is just paid cheap. Yet the reality what I have seen that a teacher is so sincere. They never sigh with this circumstance. They accept that event though it is not appropriate with their virtues. Talking about virtues, a teacher is known as a merit person. They give their knowledge pleasantly.

Analysis and evaluation of the book

Most of topic covered in this book has been concerned to some extent with teacher expectation. The author delivered that the teacher need a condition which the student respect him/ her during the study process and in outside. That is a common expecting from everyone, not only a teacher. Being respecting by the others is one of the big dreams of everybody.

The author explained that a teacher is so sensitive, and I think that it is a common knowledge. Everybody is sensitive. There are some conditions that cause someone get angry, or blame the others when something bad is coming towards him/ her. The author did not specify the sensitiveness, what kind of sensitiveness that belongs to the teacher. 

Beside it, the author cannot explain the topic in brief. There are so many repetitions in this book. Sometimes it causes the difficult condition to the readers to understand the case.
Actually, the way of the author in explaining this topic is by giving some cases as the examples. The case is pertinent to the topic, so the readers can understand it as the example in daily life. This example will make the readers feel that they did it.

Conclusion    
Thus, the writer has presented his topics well even though in some parts there is some misunderstandings. Based on the explanation, the writer will reach the purpose of his writing. Most of the readers will understand about the condition of a teacher or the dilemmas of them by studying this book. When we related this topic to the subject about Curriculum and Material Development, the students and the teachers will be easier in studying CMD because the content is also related each other. The writer should separate the sub- topics all in helping the readers to focus in every sub- topic.
 
This book will help the student who will be a teacher in preparing themselves to be a professional teacher for the best education in our country. And so does to the teacher, this book is helpful to improve themselves by creating good teaching techniques in the class.

Then, the writer also should be able to unite the thinking of the readers by giving summary at the end of that topic. At last, this book is good not only for the students to make them in enjoy in studying CMD, but also the teachers to make them easy in spreading the material about this topic in CMD subject.

“How to Make an Omelet
Ingredients:
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 Tbsp. whole milk
  • 2 Tbsp clarified butter or whole butter
  • Salt and ground white pepper, to taste

  1. Crack the eggs into a glass mixing bowl and beat them until they turn a pale yellow color.
  2. Heat a heavy-bottomed nonstick sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
  3. Add the milk to the eggs and season to taste with salt and white pepper. Then, grab your whisk and whisk like crazy. You're going to want to work up a sweat here. If you're not up for that, you can use an electric beater or stand mixer with the whisk attachment. Whatever device you use, you're trying to beat as much air as possible into the eggs.
  4. Your eggs should now resemble a bright yellow pancake, which should easily slide around on the nonstick surface. If it sticks at all, loosen it with your spatula.
  5. Now gently flip the egg pancake over, using your spatula to ease it over if necessary. Cook for another few seconds, or until there is no uncooked egg left.
  6. With your spatula, lift one edge of the egg and fold it across and over, so that the edges line up. Cook for another minute or so, but don't overcook or allow the egg to turn brown. If necessary, you can flip the entire omelet over to cook the top for 30 seconds or so. Just don't let it get brown.
  7. Gently transfer the finished omelet to a plate. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs if desired.
