Educator: Manager or Choreographer or ?

Classroom management or classroom choreography?  How do you approach the job?

Do we manage students or do we choreograph for best learning? Is there a better word?  What are the implications of the words we use to describe the work we do?

What does "management" infer and look like?

What does "choreography" infer and look like?

What are the best ways to reach our ultimate aim: learning?

I'm thinking about this. I'm curious as to how educators near and far would answer these questions.
