Dr William Glasser, our theorist presentation.
- 00:07 - 00:10
Key terms associated with Doctor Glasser are the reality theory
- 00:11 - 00:14
where one can control their reality more efficiently by making
- 00:15 - 00:16
healthy and helpful decisions.
- 00:17 - 00:18
Then there's a choice theory.
- 00:18 - 00:21
The idea that people are motivated by an internal need
- 00:21 - 00:24
for power with the opportunity to make choices, people or
- 00:25 - 00:28
students feel more powerful and in control of their actions
- 00:28 - 00:28
and reactions.
- 00:30 - 00:34
The Children's basic needs, doctor Glasser believed, were survival belonging
- 00:35 - 00:37
and love, fun, freedom and power.
- 00:38 - 00:42
Then Dr Glasser had the total knowledge filter, which, which
- 00:42 - 00:44
is what is important to for us to learn.
- 00:44 - 00:49
That is, what do we filter into our understanding versus
- 00:49 - 00:50
what we keep out.
- 00:51 - 00:54
Then there's the perceived world, which is our interpretation of
- 00:55 - 00:57
reality. There is reality, and there's the perceived world.
- 00:58 - 00:59
And then there is our quality life.
- 01:00 - 01:02
Next, there is outcome based education.
- 01:03 - 01:06
This is an educational theory that basis each part of
- 01:07 - 01:09
an educational system around goals, outcomes.
- 01:11 - 01:14
By the end of the educational experience, each student should
- 01:14 - 01:15
have it and achieve goal.
- 01:18 - 01:22
Author is best known for his choice theories.
- 01:24 - 01:25
He was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1925.
- 01:28 - 01:33
The initially studied chemical engineering in college, but changes major
- 01:33 - 01:33
two psychiatrists.
- 01:36 - 01:38
He attended the psychiatric training at U.
- 01:38 - 01:38
C L.
- 01:38 - 01:42
A and the various administration hospital up until 1957.
- 01:45 - 01:48
Dr Glass there also created the Institute with Choice Theory.
- 01:49 - 01:57
He later became a board certified psychiatrist in 1961 You
- 01:57 - 01:59
maintain a product practice, and during that time we wrote
- 02:00 - 02:00
several books.
- 02:01 - 02:06
The first book, Waas, cooled without failure that local so
- 02:06 - 02:09
successful that he wrote a second book, which he made
- 02:10 - 02:10
a choice theory.
- 02:19 - 02:20
Choice theory.
- 02:20 - 02:23
William Glasses Choice theory proposes that people have an internal
- 02:24 - 02:25
need for power.
- 02:26 - 02:28
The theory is based on the premise is that every
- 02:29 - 02:31
individual on Lee has the power to control themselves and
- 02:32 - 02:34
has limited power to control others.
- 02:35 - 02:39
When given the opportunity to choose a a reaction or
- 02:39 - 02:42
solution to a problem, people feel empowered and more in
- 02:42 - 02:44
control of their emotions and actions.
- 02:45 - 02:49
The choice theory sought to replace external control psychology that
- 02:50 - 02:56
is controlling habits like blaming, criticizing, complaining, nagging, rewarding to
- 02:56 - 03:04
control, threatening or punishing and these things that it's like
- 03:04 - 03:07
it will push us further apart those controlling things.
- 03:08 - 03:11
That's what glass or believed he wanted to replace those
- 03:12 - 03:15
with connecting habits or caring habits instead, which are listening,
- 03:16 - 03:22
supporting, encouraging, negotiating, respecting, accepting and trusting.
- 03:27 - 03:30
Dr Glasser also talked about are Perceived World.
- 03:31 - 03:36
The perceived world is, um when how we see our
- 03:36 - 03:40
reality and we tend to filter out different things based
- 03:40 - 03:43
on what is necessary for us to learn what is
- 03:43 - 03:47
important to us for learn and we filter knowledge through
- 03:48 - 03:49
one of the one of three things.
- 03:52 - 03:55
We either decide that the information is not meaningful, us
- 03:55 - 03:58
meaningful to us, and the perception stops there.
- 03:59 - 04:02
We or we do not immediately recognize the information but
- 04:02 - 04:03
believe it may be meaningful to us.
- 04:04 - 04:07
So we have some incentive to gain more information.
- 04:08 - 04:11
And then there is the information is meaningful to us
- 04:11 - 04:15
and therefore passes through the next filter devaluing filter me
- 04:15 - 04:17
and that we're going to keep that because that information
- 04:18 - 04:20
we can use it or utilize it in ah future,
- 04:21 - 04:23
um, part of life.
- 04:28 - 04:32
A few important key sips a few important things to
- 04:32 - 04:35
remember about perceived world that for each of us, our
- 04:35 - 04:41
reality can be different because they're made up of our
- 04:41 - 04:42
perceptions or are perceived worlds.
- 04:43 - 04:47
So they are highly subjective, based on your culture, your
- 04:47 - 04:49
education, experience, gender or age.
- 04:50 - 04:54
They're also unique, meaning that one person's perceived world may
- 04:54 - 04:58
be different from the others, um, in certain aspects, then
- 04:58 - 05:00
they're subject to constant change.
- 05:01 - 05:03
So the more information that we gain and the more
- 05:04 - 05:10
experience that we go through it changes our perception as
- 05:10 - 05:13
we, uh, filtered through life.
- 05:14 - 05:15
And it's frequently inaccurate.
- 05:16 - 05:20
It means that it's frequently not equal to the actual
- 05:21 - 05:30
reality. That is a reality for everyone in connection between
- 05:32 - 05:32
Dr Glasses.
- 05:33 - 05:37
Choice theory in our advanced classroom management class is they
- 05:38 - 05:40
both discuss doing behavior.
- 05:41 - 05:43
They both discussed control our own behavior.
- 05:45 - 05:48
Advanced classroom management teaches us how to manage our classrooms
- 05:49 - 05:50
and how to control our students behavior.
- 05:51 - 05:53
Start the glasses choice theory space.
- 05:53 - 05:56
That behavior is chosen so we can only control our
- 05:56 - 05:56
own behavior.
- 05:58 - 06:01
So teachers have to teach their students how to control
- 06:02 - 06:08
their own behavior by implementing consequences for inappropriate behavior and
- 06:09 - 06:14
rewarding students for following rules and controlling their behavior.
- 06:21 - 06:23
Next, we have the choice theory in the classroom.
- 06:24 - 06:26
In the classroom, this would look like a teacher, providing
- 06:26 - 06:31
students ah chance to make choices and how or what
- 06:31 - 06:31
they learn.
- 06:32 - 06:36
First, the teacher should establish and understanding of what choices
- 06:37 - 06:40
are and how we are able to make choices for
- 06:40 - 06:43
ourselves versus others making choices for us.
- 06:44 - 06:47
This could be done in uh, many different skits that
- 06:47 - 06:53
the Glasser's doctor Glasser and his wife, Carlene, created to
- 06:53 - 06:56
help students exercise choices and making decisions.
- 06:57 - 07:00
And through that you can use a writing exercise or
- 07:01 - 07:04
in our exercise that helps them develop their feelings about
- 07:04 - 07:05
the choices that they made.
- 07:06 - 07:10
And also it verbalize is their feelings and shows them
- 07:10 - 07:14
the empowerment that they have from it and their ability
- 07:14 - 07:17
to do so and what could have happened or what
- 07:17 - 07:20
would have been the consequences and showing them under showing
- 07:20 - 07:24
them understanding that our choices decide what happens next.
- 07:29 - 07:32
It is important to note that Glasser did reject some
- 07:33 - 07:36
traditional aspect and practices of the classroom.
- 07:37 - 07:40
He rejected the objective closed book test.
- 07:40 - 07:43
Those air tests, like we're used to traditional tests, whereas
- 07:44 - 07:47
students can't look at the book and they are based
- 07:47 - 07:52
on a part of knowledge that a specific part of
- 07:52 - 07:56
knowledge that, um, the teachers or the school want them
- 07:56 - 07:56
to know.
- 07:57 - 08:02
Then there's homework, high standards, disciplines and standardized grading like
- 08:03 - 08:04
A B and C D F.
- 08:06 - 08:10
They believe they believed ideas and concepts did not provide
- 08:10 - 08:12
fluid learning nor enthusiasm for learning.
- 08:13 - 08:17
There were external control and concepts that did not promote
- 08:17 - 08:17
student growth.
- 08:23 - 08:26
These are our references, Thank you guys for tuning in
