When you use sources, include all in-text citations and references in APA format. There are several scientific practices that need to be observed when working in a laboratory setting. First a student must be able to construct explanations, and secondly they must be able to utilize critical thinking skills through the use of mathematics, information and computer technology and computational thinking. As an effective teacher one must be able to communicate the value of these skills to their students and show the value of being thorough with both of these steps. When teaching a student about constructing explanations it is important to understand what the purpose of the explanation is trying to say; being thorough is going to be the best option as the more details that are available the more likely the person reviewing the experiment will understand what was trying to be done.
SPE 226 Educating the Exceptional Learner Benchmark Assessment Targeted Essential Learning Effective teachers implement lesson plans that utilize diversified strategies to meet the learning needs of students with varying degrees of cognitive abilities. Effective teachers are able to adapt instruction based on learner needs. (APTS 3, 9; INTASC 2; CEC 4, 7) Assessment Tool Selected Project a) Accommodations and Modification of Lesson Plan b) Report - Reflective Analysis Specific Performance/Task(s) • Implement lesson plans. (APTS 3.1) • Select and utilize best practice implementation strategies appropriate to different developmental levels. (APTS 3.7) • Implement differentiated strategies that address diverse learners.
support teaching and learning Unit 312 Support numeracy development Outcome 1: Understand current national and organisational frameworks for mathematics 1.1: Explain the aims and importance of learning provision for numeracy development The aims and importance of learning provision for numeracy development is to ensure that all pupils understand that maths is an important part of everyday life, and will continue to be used throughout their life. Maths is taught to children in many different ways, sometimes there can be too much emphasis on the recording of ‘sums’, if this is introduced to children too early it can slow down the pupil’s progress in thinking mathematically. Maths is now taught very differently to when I was in school, because there is more emphasis now in how you arrive at the answer and finding different methods of arriving at the correct answer particularly in the early primary phase. Showing the children different methods of arriving at the answer improves their investigation skills. The mathematics curriculum is intended to give the children a better understanding of numeracy.
Formal IA may be application forms, references and other relevant documentation. Informal IA could usually be a discussion or conversation between teacher & learner. When the teacher has the knowledge and details about the learner, referrals to specialist support areas can be processed if required. Information about the learner’s personality along with any diagnosed conditions for example, ADHD and Autism should also be picked up at the IA stage. Formative Assessment in tracking learner progress Formative assessment (assessment for learning) is engaged during a course or programme.
During Unit 3, the class explored students with exceptional needs, such as students with learning disabilities who have an IEP. One of the most important parts of this unit was the field report, in which we had to describe and analyze teaching practices for students with an IEP. By having us adapt a content standard for the student we observed, we were able to address TPE 9, “Instructional Planning.” TPE 9 in particular deals with differentiated instruction, which is what we specifically observed and wrote
The last section that will be communicated is building on a lesson plan and one activity for each perspective in outline form. Cognitive Psychology lesson in a classroom will aim at the development of learning skills such as concentration, perception, memory, and logical thinking (Ormrod, 2008). The following lesson plan is an activity plan for second and third grade levels in Mathematics and measurement. Description: Students will read the book ‘How Big is a Foot?’, as an introduction to a math measurement lesson comparing the size of their feet to their
As a teaching assistant I have to ensure that the appropriate resources are available, also with working with SEN students as appropriate, I need to ensure that there is differential work available as all work set in lessons is usually to a generic standard. I would achieve this by prior discussion with the teacher that will be delivering the lesson. It is my job to know which students need supporting in different areas of the work, for example numeracy or literacy support. I can achieve this by using an in house computer system to research each individual student I would be working with. I would need to know if I will be working on a 1:1 basis or with a group so I can plan accordingly.
| | Patterns of Reasoning Midterm for Ecomp 6102 Anna Lizier Lesley University Abstract My research paper is about the reasoning targets from Rick Stiggin’s book An Introduction to Student – Involved Assessment FOR Learning. Reasoning is how we use knowledge to solve problems. I will define the seven different reasoning targets and give examples of how I use these targets when teaching my students. With the support of other sources I will show my understanding of reasoning and the importance it has to me and my students. Patterns of Reasoning in the Classroom It is my understanding that reasoning is defined as a way of
Cognition encompasses perception, imagination, judgment, memory, and language - the processes people use to think, decide, and learn. Education - not only the formal curriculum in schools but also informal learning - is part of this domain as well." (Berger, pg.12) Piaget considers adaptation the "essence of intelligence". (Berger, pg. 165) Learning is an active process which leads to the creation of schemas.
