Assignment 28

1. The teacher’s role in the student’s success is very important

because they will help to reveal student's best skills and teach valuable
life skills as well, such as communication, compassion, presentation,
organization, following directions, and more. They are also a source of
inspiration and motivation. Most importantly, teachers help shape a
child’s personality for him to become a better person that will make him
an asset to a nation. Thus, teachers do not only equip a child with
knowledge and skills, but develop him to have a well-rounded personality
for him to succeed. As can be observe in the real- life situation, not all
intelligent people succeed in life because attitude is also needed. No
matter how intelligent a person can be, but if he is not emotionally-
stable, then success will be far-fetched for him. This is the reason why
character education is also being taught in school.

2. The code of ethics is important for teachers working in an

institution because it serves as their guidance and protection. The code
of ethics outlines all the teachers’ responsibilities to their students. Aside
from it, the code of ethics also contains the different sanctions that will
be applied to a teacher if ever he violates one of the code of ethics. Hence,
the code of ethics is the teachers’ bible.

If the code of ethics is that important to the teachers and so is the

student’s handbook for the students. The primary purpose of the student
handbook is to provide students with information, guidelines, and
policies that will enhance their adjustments as part of the community of
their school. According to George Fox University (2015), "One of the key
documents that outline the students experience is the Student
Handbook.
