The Teacher
Teacher, as the main facilitator of learning is like a clay pot masters that mold and design clay pots. As the master, he has the capacity to create his masterpiece just from a lump of clay due to his craftsmanship, patience, and his skills. Hence, I guess, it is just and right to ALSO give credit to the result of his hardwork and labor.
I highlighted the word ALSO since, there are several factors in learning which I guess we will tackle in the next few days and weeks. Learning does not only take place in the school and with student's teachers. Learning can also be acquired in other forms and mediums and we should also consider student's genes, environment and support system.
Hence, in student's success, both deserve to claim credit for student's success.
However, the story is different in a case if students fail academically; the teacher should take full responsibility on it. Just like what I believe, the teacher is the most powerful entity in the classroom to make the student learn how to learn. Just like the Dr. Chew mentioned, everything can be learned, it just need a long process, and in that process, it includes the teacher.
It may sound so unfair for us- teachers, but that is our main responsibility. It is our responsibility to guide our student to achieve the different learning objectives. I believe, schools like this-UPOU is here to equipped us-future teachers to learn different skills, methodologies and theories that will enable us to make difficult subject seem to be so easy for our
