Mr. Jacoby is a new teacher at Oak Bluff High School. The school is rigorously standards-based and strongly focused on state assessment scores. Mr. Jacoby however, has a more student-centered approach to teaching. His students think that he’s a very easy teacher, and his administrator is wondering if perhaps that is true. Which of the following approaches might Mr. Jacoby take in reassuring his administrator that he is not too easy?
  1. Inviting the administrator to visit his class
  2. Making light conversation with his colleagues about the situation in the presence of the administrator
  3. Asking students if they think he is too easy
  4. Asking a guidance counselor to validate his instructional approach
Explanation
Answer: A - Inviting the administrator to visit his class. If a teacher were in question for the effectiveness of his teaching, the most useful approach would be to collaborate with the administrator to fine-tune the instructional approach. A cause for concern about performance is within the realm of discussion between teacher and administrator.
