You will learn about the basic principles of child development and explore how the social world in which children and adolescents interact (e.g., parents, family, school, community, government, media, and cultural) influence learning, growth, and development. You will learn to apply these course concepts to practical and contemporary issues affecting children and families today. Course Learning Objectives: Upon completing this course, the student will be able to: 4. Identify context and theoretical frameworks to understand the developing child. 5.
(CEC 4.4) • Design instruction to meet student needs. (CEC 4.5) • Select, adapt, create, and use curricular materials.

1.3 Explain the characteristics of assessment for learning 1.4 Explain the importance and benefits of assessment for learning 1.5 Explain how assessment for learning can contribute to planning for future learning carried out by: a) the teacher b) the learners c) the learning support practitioner A description from the Assessment Reform Group “Assessment for Learning is the process of seeking and interpreting evidence for use by learners and their teachers to decide where the learners are in their learning, where they need to go and how best to get there” (2002) Characteristics of Assessment for Learning Assessment for learning is part of the teaching and learning process. It is essential for achieving a quality and productive teaching and learning experience. Providing the students with their WALT’s – We are learning today and WILF’s – What I’m looking for….. is a strategy that allows teachers to share the learning goals with students. Sharing learning goals with pupils will enable the student to get involved in their progress. By explaining to students what the learning objectives are provides an aim.
In this write-up, I will seek to explain the ways in which I could establish ground rules with learners, which strengthens behaviour and respect for others. In doing this, I will be explaining what ground rules are and why they are necessary. How best they can be established and also ensure that students take ownership of rules by putting responsibility on them. Ground rules can be defined as terms which govern the working relationship between the school/teacher and its learners. According to Jo Budden “good classroom management depends a lot on how you establish ground rules at the beginning of the course”.
1) Establish rules for the Group that create an atmosphere for learning and address issues before they develop. 2) Help the group to understand standards and expectations. 3) Help to develop teacher/pupil relations based on respect. 4) Encourages interactive participation for greater understanding and exploration. 5) Assists teacher to determine group pace and plan modular stage for course completion.
2. Facilitation of Learning Use knowledge of the student’s stage of learning to select appropriate learning opportunities to meet their individual needs. Facilitate selection of appropriate learning strategies to integrate learning from practice and academic experiences. Support students in critically reflecting upon their learning experiences in order to enhance future learning. 3.
When first introducing to a lesson, a graphic organizer can be used to assess and organize a student’s knowledge on the lesson topic. An easy way to utilize a graphic organizer in this way is to have the students fill out a KWL chart. This organizes key information regarding what the student currently knows, what the student wants to know, and later on what the students have learned as a direct result of the lesson. This provides the instructor a learning history of what they can build upon and clues them in on areas of interest they can use later on in the lesson. During the lesson, students can utilize graphic organizers to identify, organize and assimilate key concepts and related details.
Evaluate own role and responsibilities in lifelong learning , follow the Teacher Training Method of Teaching ,Identify the needs by plan training, and deliver training. Followed by Assessment’s and feedback on Overall Evaluations. 4. Review own role and responsibilities in identifying and meeting the needs of learners. Initial assessment is to acknowledge the strength or weakness of each student and thoroughly learning about what is the best approach of learning about the students and the better approach or method of teaching the students, so they are able to understand. Target settings will also apply as a motivation for the students so they are able to understand the actual target’s that are required to be followed.
Understanding Culture and 3C Lesson 1 Introduction Lesson 1 provides an introduction to the course as a whole. It introduces you to five key concepts: The definition of culture Culture-general and culture -specific knowledge Cross-cultural competence (3C) Cultural domains, and The Cultural OODA Loop These five concepts are essential to help you understand the content and design of the course, which may differ from what you might expect from a course about culture. All of these concepts will set the stage for teaching yourself how to learn about culture, and how to apply a set of skills to improve your cultural learning. Our goal in this course is to help you improve your knowledge about culture and your ability to build your own cross-cultural competence over time. Lesson Objectives By the time you finish this lesson, you will be able to: 1.
Social Cognitive * Affective learning processes Self regulated learning tends to be influenced by an individual’s emotions, behaviors, and their cognitive processing (Schunk & Zimmerman, 1997). This is a process that will orient the individual in achieving their goals by self generating (Schunk & Zimmerman, 1997). Schunk and Zimmerman (1997) stated that the self regulated learning process can also be considered as an academic self regulation process which has been studied over the years throughout different classrooms. The students taking the course learn how to use motivation, cognition, and behavior to improve their learning skills. These students who use motivational beliefs also utilize more self regulation learning skills (Schunk & Zimmerman, 1997).
