Importance of Teacher Self-Accountability

Accountability towards self is more important than accountability towards students for several reasons: 1) Teachers must equip themselves with Pedagogical Content Knowledge to effectively teach students and help them learn, and without sufficient PCK their students' academic achievement will suffer. 2) Teachers must have a dynamic personality that can inspire students and act as a role model for them to develop holistically. 3) Teachers must control their own emotions to maintain tranquility and think wisely without bias when interacting with students. 4) Teachers must continuously expand their own knowledge through reading so they can implement new teaching methods and techniques that keep their instruction engaging.

Question 2

Accountability towards self is more important that accountability towards students. Give your
justifications towards the statement above.

Teachers need to equip themselves with the Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) in
order to determine the effectiveness of the teaching and learning. PCK enables teachers
to train and guide students to acquire skills in learning how to learn. Without sufficient
PCK, it will affect pupils in terms of their academic achievements.
Teachers need to have a dynamic, competitive, virtuous and optimistic personality that
can be a source of inspiration to students. Therefore, in order to develop pupils holistically,
teachers themselves need to be a role model for pupils to emulate.
Teachers need to control own emotions to bring tranquility and peace of mind. With a
good emotional control, teachers are able to think wisely and be fair to all students
without any biasness regardless of race, religion, and other factors.
Teachers need to equip themselves with knowledge through reading a variety of
educational materials in order to be an expert in their own field. With a lot of knowledge,
they are able to implement various new interesting methods and techniques to be applied
in the teaching and learning session.
