Students that have adapted, whether it is for cultural reasons or because an another style was better suited for the subject, may continue to show higher achievement even in future classrooms that do not implement the teaching styles that have been found to be ideal for achievement levels. Future research should also look to see if teaching styles beyond the recommendations of No Child Left Behind can acquire the improvement in achievement NCLB seeks.

Teaching What are three rewards and three challenges that you will face as a teacher? As a rabid student of popular culture, I have been interested in the so-called "achievement gap" in education, popularized in the media, the political spectrum, and even within contemporary business culture.

They computed a variety of measures to determine whether there was in fact a narrowing of a gap between teacher qualifications across wealthier and poorer schools and found that there was. This narrowing -- indicative of changes in hiring practices and policies as a result in NCLB, was positively correlated with improved test scores in those districts with higher poverty populations. The researcher felt there was some possibility, as indicated

However the effects of style on performance are contingent on the nature of the task. For example visual learners are likely to perform better on pictorially-based tasks than on verbal-based tasks. There is no significant correlation between intelligence and learning style. However reach indicates that academic achievement was positively correlated with a strategic approach to addressing learning styles and negatively correlated to an apathetic approach. Learning style was also

Teaching Adults by Griff Foley
Opening up to students is very important for teachers. While it is obviously not appropriate for a teacher to confide intimate personal details to the class, or gossip about others to try to be more accepted, there are ways that a teacher can seem more 'real' to the students. For example, crying over something very sad or letting the students know when the teacher is getting angry with their
