Gordon Model in Practice - an action research
Peřichová, Karolína ; Poche Kargerová, Jana (advisor) ; Vallin, Petra (referee)
The topic of the thesis is the impact of classroom communication on teaching effectiveness. The theoretical work focuses on the ideas of Thomas Gordon, as described in his book Teacher Effectiveness Training where he discusses the impact of teacher-pupil communication on the educational process and offers communication methods to increase teaching effectiveness. In the theoretical part, I focus on various approaches to communication with pupils and their influence on the motivation to learn. The education objectives as stipulated in the Czech Education Act are the starting point for the theoretical work. The question of how these goals are met leads to Gordon's effective communication methods. These are based on an accepting attitude towards students and supported by the theory of humanistic psychology represented by Carl Rogers. I compare these methods with other pedagogical literature on education. In the practical part, I analyse selected teaching situations as described in my teacher's diary where I recorded real-life situations in which I tried to apply Gordon's effective communication methods and a respectful attitude towards pupils. In follow-up meta-reflections, I discussed how using these methods affects the teacher's personality and the teaching process, whether these methods can also be...
