This way of giving feedback should always be adapted to each learner. To be constructive feedback has to have some depth instead of quick comment. It has to be based in particular facts related to the learners development, achievement or what areas the learner needs to develop. However a trainer has to have in mind that when a learner reads a written feedback he may not interpret the trainer’s words as the trainer intended. So it is very important that the trainer chooses his words carefully in order to be clear about the learner’s achievements, progress or areas of improvement (Gravells, 2013).
The mathematics curriculum is intended to give the children a better understanding of numeracy. The end goal means more students will be able to solve a mathematical problem independently using a method that suits them. They can then develop their learning to improve their knowledge and apply it to real life situations; such as counting in groups of numbers such as 5’s or 10’s, which in turn can be applied when paying for shopping with money. As students’ progress they can build on these skills, by recording the levels of achievement, they can be supported to help fully access the curriculum. Mathematical skills in the Early Years are developed through practical work to give the children a better understanding of maths e.g.
Also teachers need to make sure all the equipment the learners will be using during the course is safe for them to use. Ground Rules. When starting the course, a teacher should make sure they create a safe environment in the classroom: this means making sure everybody is comfortable with everybody else and nobody is trying to bully anyone. When working with adult learners it could be better to have ‘commonly agreed ground rules’ so they can agree with each point and find elements to discuss. This is good because when they get to decide the ground rules it’s more unlikely that they are going to break them.
In order to prevent infection, and injury it may be necessary for the worker to wear personal protective clothing (ppc). It is vital to always adhere to standard precautions and procedures which will have been explained in training sessions. This protects the worker from claims of incompetence and also addresses the issue of vicarious liability. Although the learner will develop experience and some knowledge s/he can not advise on medication or deal with all queries about the efficacy of the medication. Any queries s/he has doubts about or have not been covered in training must be passed on to the lead practitioner.
Efficient grade books should be organized around the standards (Appendix A). While all assessment data should be recorded, such as diagnostic, formative, and summative assessments, only summative assessments should count toward final grades. Formative assessments and quizzes should only be used for immediate feedback given to students. Teachers should consider eliminating the practice of distributing zeros for uncompleted assignments. Instead, directing the student to redo the assignment is a more productive method of measuring mastery of the content.
Inclusion and inclusive education are quite broad in definition, however with the support of this unit my professional understanding of inclusion has been formed by research and practices such as all student engagement, asking the question how? we can provide for diverse needs (Spandagou, Lecture 2), also Standard 1 of the Disability Education Standards (2005) identifies the need to know our students and how they learn, thus the need for personalised learning plans. The IPAA is an incredible framework, a reflective tool to assist teachers in achieving an inclusive approach to education, teaching and learning which helps to achieve standards 5 & 6 in the Disability Standards for Education (Florian, 2014, p.293). I agree with Foreman (2008) in his argument for inclusion as a concept which extends beyond the immediate environment and education to society itself. It is not ignorable the fact of discrimination and unsettlement of people around others with disability and lack of education about various disabilities and additional needs is concerning.
No one method will be suitable for all learners and all situations and the person responsible for the students learning must be prepared to be adaptable and use different methods in order to establish appropriate behaviour and an all inclusive environment in which to learn. Ground rules are necessary in all learning environments either express or implied. James Atherton (2009) believes that ground rules are the minimum necessary to enable learning to take place in the class. He goes onto to suggest that a teacher should know what they want in the list of ground rules before they start. He asks the question of teachers, if they don’t know what ground rules they want how will the students?
2.1 Analyse the boundaries between the teaching role and other professional roles (Francis and Gould, 2009:10) “Professionalism requires us to maintain appropriate standards and fulfil our responsibilities to learners, institutions and colleagues. This is achieved by setting professional and personal boundaries which will enable us to be clear about what our limits are and what our professional role involves.” Professional boundaries The teacher/trainers do not have the knowledge, skills or admin to solve some problems. Especially those outside of that the teacher/train can deal with Professional boundaries could include: Resources Professional External Broken Equipment Teacher from another profession Administration
She learns best not from explanation or direction; but from simply just doing it. The Kinesthetic Learning Style is what we are going to discuss in this paper. We are going to define exactly what kinesthetic learning is. Additionally, we will also discuss the pros and cons of being an Active Learner; and how to best work with an active learner. So, by now you are asking yourself "What exactly is the Kinesthetic Learning Style?
CYPCore32-1.1 Explain the factors that need to be taken into account when assessing development. When assessing development, we need to take into consideration a few factors such as: * Confidentiality: We’d need consent from the parent to carry out an observation of a child/ young person. But we also need to be careful with the contents of the observations we make; we need to ensure any notes we’re taking, any recording or any register about the child is out of the reach of anyone who is not ourselves, the parent and someone who is involved with the child’s education and needs to have access to this. If we need to show our notes to someone duo to our own education process, someone like a tutor for example, then we need to protect the identity of the child by not using their names. In case there’s any safeguard issue, we should follow the safeguarding procedures which may involve breaching confidentiality but then again only if/ when necessary and only the people who need to have information will do so.
