What effect did your teaching strategies have in terms of promoting student learning and keeping your students meaningfully engaged? (APS 5.A–C)

My primary goal is to maximize the attainment of my students and ensure that they are engaged in their learning.

Engaging students in the classroom can be a difficult task. Understanding the process of how students learn can help a teacher adapt the lesson to meet the needs of all students. I will encounter students that are not intrinsically motivated so I will need to find different ways to motivate each and every student. Understanding how my students learn can provide me with insights as to how to help each student learn which will minimize classroom management problems.

attitude to learn. Students should also prepare for tests and do the homework to help

When teaching students (following an initial student assessment) I plan various methods to ensure all students are engaged within the learning process. This can be practical involvement, paired and group work, problem solving, reflection and writing notes. During this time, I am able to continually assess the learning progress through observation, written and oral questions, completion of work books and by using peer and self- assessment. I engage the students by using various mediums, video

For this assignment, I chose principle number six. Principle six states, “Engage others socially, emotionally, and intellectually (“SEI”).” I value this principle because I learned that children cannot maximize a learning opportunity without being engaged socially, emotionally and intellectually. These three components are inextricably linked; thus, you can’t have one without the other. Without engaging students socially, emotionally, and intellectually, learning is less effective. Therefore, I value this principle because it reminds me that, as a future teacher, I need to create or choose activities that will engage students socially, emotionally, and intellectually. I should not just choose an activity because it is “cute” or seems “fun.”

This is how we consider the classroom and the classroom activities gives opportunities to children for learning.

It is my desire as a role model and teacher to help students by meeting them where they are at and reach their fullest potential by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites ideas to be shared openly. It is my goal to teach students effective tools to gain a voice and be able to identify and understand other voices in this world. I believe the ideal curriculum is one which provides students with extensive individual freedom and requires them to ask their own questions, conduct their own inquiries, and draw on their own conclusions. My lessons and instruction will only be powerful if I have spent time establishing relationships and an effective behavior management system with my students. Also, by providing students access to hands-on activities and allowing adequate time and space to use materials that reinforce the lesson being studied, creates an opportunity for individual discovery and construction of knowledge to

As I pursue teaching, one of my main focuses is on content. Content should be age appropriate for students, but at the same time, it should be challenging. Students should feel they are pushing themselves without feeling that it is impossible. I aim that with the content I will be teaching that my students will be engaged since engaging content leads to higher retention rates. School curriculum, often, can be restrictive on what content teachers are allowed to administer to their students, however, I will find inventive ways to teach my students more than just what is required.

All students have a different learning style and can benefit from hands on or real life activities in the classroom.

alertness in their classroom atmosphere, which means that students feel a low threat with a very high challenging state of mind. Secondly, an orchestrated immersion or a multiple, complex, and authentic experience should be felt by students in the class. Lastly, students should be in a state of active processing, which is, making meaning through experience processing. (http://www.eduscapes.com)

Through the teaching experiences I have engaged in my life, I have understood how important is to enhance students' willingness to study and their enthusiasm and enjoyment of the subject.
