That's so strange. My program drilled it into us that teachers don't have time to make things from scratch. They encouraged utilizing any resource we could.

Good. The goal is to be teaching people, not making sure you can write slides.

@annielynn8730 2 года назад

Yeah but I can completely see how they would at least want you to learn how to do it yourself while in school. That’s what school is for pretty much everyone anyway - doing everything from scratch and memorizing information you can just look up in the real world.

@LeadTrumpet1 2 года назад

My teaching programs lived by the motto of “Beg, Borrow, and Steal”. Since the university heavily frowned on that last one, we were free to use TPT or other resources as long as it was mentioned in the lesson plan where we got it and the URL was printed on the PDF turned in for credit.

@TziporaRaphaella 2 года назад

I’m the adult child of two long retired elementary school teachers. I have vivid memories of the smell and the purple ink stains if I got anywhere near the ditto machine my parents had in the basement! Old school copying! And i absolutely used to LOVE to accompany my mom to the teacher supply store in our town because she would always let me pick out a pencil or eraser or sticker. That’s where she bought the workbooks and things to make the copies with on the ditto machine. I sort of want to show my parents TPT now because largely they (mom is 78, dad is 83. They each taught 35 years) always say they’re glad they got out when they did- mid to late 90s- because of how much things have changed and not for the better. I think it would blow their minds to realize the plus side of the internet and things like TPT. (Also I’m realizing now how unique it is that ditto ink stains and that smell are one of my most vivid childhood memories 😂 And I’m not sure if most people are going to have a clue what I’m talking about.)

People get so carried away with the idea of not plagiarizing. Yeah, academic plagiarism is not good, neither is plagiarism for students when the goal is to create the paper or presentation, full stop. When that product is merely in service of a greater overall goal, why not? Is the goal to make sure the teacher can use PowerPoint? Yay, great, you made the slides yourself, probably could've used the time more wisely and prepared for more facets than just the slides in the same amount of time.

Here is why: learning. Engineering is the same way. There are plenty of designs for circuits that exist where you can likely find exactly what you are looking for. However, the point of designing them yourself during the teaching process is to learn how to do so and much more importantly why. The why of it is what you go to school for. The how can be done by nearly anyone with basic knowledge but they are likely to make mistakes by not getting it to work right for their exact needs.

This is a wonderful argument for why there needs to be a statewide syllabus with a shared curriculum for every school that is available to the parents to review, and one that should not be deviated from.

CompSci students can easily access code from stackexchange and other sites just like working programmers do and not do it themselves. The point in both programs is to have a working knowledge of how things function so you can not only create your own when needed, but so you can pick out the garbage from the worthwhile materials when you don't have to create your own. The last comment especially blows my mind: If we can't use it why is it there? What?

They wanted you to think about what it was you wanted to teach and how to create things to support those learning goals.

"For learning purposes we want you to create this from scratch, however in the field you'll want to utilize all resources avaliable." I'm not a teacher, but one thing I've learned from training in New hires at various jobs is that people learn a lot better when you explain to the exactly why you're making them do something. I typically will show people the way it "should" be done, the way the company wants, and once they get the hang of that I'll show the way I ACTUALLLY do things. 🤣 I explain step by step too "don't do this normally, it wastes too much time, but if you ever get a check in from the Foreman or Safety Man you need to he able to demonstrate the 'proper' way to do it." The more transparent you are while teaching/training, the better off you'll be. If people understand why they're learning or doing something they'll actually do it instead of complaining about how stupid it is.

The reasons most schools don't allow TPT is copyright issues. There is no way to verify the legalities and legitimacies of the materials on that site. Some schools have gotten in legal trouble due or TPT.

TPT wasn't a thing when I went to college for my degree. That said, I think telling teachers now to reinvent the wheel is crazy. Efficiency is also something upcoming teachers should be taught.

Professors are obsessed with you having to work extremely hard instead of smarter. When I was in the education program I retook a class to boost my score. I used an old essay of mine and modified it. My professor told me before turning it in that it was plagiarism to copy my own work so I asked to redo the assignment and was told I couldn’t do that. So, then I asked to keep it because I’d rather get a zero for not doing it then get reported for plagiarism with an English degree. He then convinced me that I wouldn’t get reported and to please submit the paper. That night I got an email saying I had to go to a campus court case to stay in the program........ all over trying to improve my work.

What ended up happening?

The entire concept of plagiarism just got thrown out the window Plagiarism literally is Use of SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK and claiming it as your own without refrencing them. You literally used ur own work 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

So......what will you do if what you need is not available....I have an HVACR degree and the final in our electrical quarter was drawing our own wiring diagram using the controls, devices, and components provided then assembling the same into a functioning air conditioner ! The purpose is to ensure you have the proper skills to enable you create resources when none are available!

One of the principals I worked with would not allow teachers at his school to use their budget on TPT. Had to be more corporate sites or something, which costs more. It just shows a total disregard for teachers' skills in finding and producing good materials for our students.

We were told not to reinvent the wheel when it came to resources used in lessons. The lesson itself had to be our own, but if we needed a print out hell yeh grab that off TpT or from a mentor/school. The assignments were about the teaching and how we teach the resources. If the resource already exists, don't waste precious planning time making it yourself.

I would think it makes sense to do both. At the beginning of a program you should have practice making the stuff and later on, it should be more realistic to the real job.

That is SO stupid!! Teaching partners within the school share ideas/ worksheets! Friends teaching the same grade (at a different school) can loan you unit material. When that website started, I was like, “Genius!!” These units/ worksheets/ etc. take TIME, and the teacher that created them deserves $, and what possible reason is there for ME to have to spend hours to create activity sheets/ word searches/ even unit plans when those resources already exist??!! That’s called trying to “re-invent the wheel”. Plus, new teachers would be screwed trying to create everything from scratch!! There just aren’t enough hours in the day!

I understand a professor wanting a teaching student to create their own materials in order to have them think on that level. That being said, as a teacher, I am a brazen thief, and any other teacher that says they’re not is a liar.
