Independent Study Center

In our childcare center we have a variety of materials placed where children are able to access and reach easily. There are six different learning centers for children to explore. There is a carpet area for circle time, a quiet area with books, an area with blocks and puzzles, an area for painting, writing and coloring to develop fine motor skills, and dress-up and pretend home area i.e. kitchen sets with dishes and pretend food,

An independent setting is where they have more freedom. They may not reply on government funding and also they may not have to follow the EYFS or the national curriculum.

The learning outcomes are important. There has to be a reason on why something is being taught, and how it will be useful to the students future. Throughout the paper, I’m going to give you an example of a lesson plan I

The organization that I work at is Saint Francis College located in Brooklyn Heights, New York, specifically the Academic Enhancement Center within the college. The mission of the center created in 2003 is to provide academic and skills tutoring to undergraduates at the college. The core objectives of AEC is to help students gained confidence in themselves, enhance their skills, help them succeed in their studies and retain current students. In order to fulfil its objectives the center has over 17 professional tutors, 25 peer tutors, a math coordinator, and an english coordinator to help students with multiple subjects. Professional tutors are those who have mastered academic subjects of all disciplines such as mathematics, writing, philosophy and chemistry. Peer tutors are undergraduates proficient in a certain subject who are paid to help tutor their fellow students.

The concept of One Stop Models at Colleges and Universities were developed with the purpose of improving student service and the overall efficiency of institutions. Offices that are located within the one-stop models provide the essential services that students need throughout college. By integrating these services, institutions are providing students with a more welcoming and functional space as well as improving the overall student experience.

The Integrated Study Units is divided into nine components. The first part of the guide is the Unit Overview. This part summarizes the content of the unit which consist of English Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science. The next part pertains to the standards that are covered within the unit. Standards within the unit are used to write student-friendly “I Can” statements to post in your classroom daily. “I Can” statement are observed by school level administrators and Curriculum and Instruction department teams. Social Studies, Science and STEM standards are taught through read aloud, shared and close reading structures. The Assessment address English Language Arts and Suggested Tasks, ELA contains specific assessments that are required

The place I chose to analyze it the ISU Central Campus, because of the variety that the Central Campus has to it. Through some research of Central Campus, I was able to understand why Central Campus was made the way it is now and what the main goals of Central Campus in the eyes of Adonijah Welch. The Central Campus also provides a road that wraps around Central Campus. Through this paper I will be discussing how Central Campus is supposed to serve individuals and how Central Campus could be designed differently. I will also discuss how Central Campus could be a solution to a wicked design problem.

Students started the unit by learning paper folding techniques to construct a book using only one sheet of paper. Next, students developed their stories and sketched a layout for each page. Students were able to choose a medium of their choice to develop their sketches into detailed illustrations. Finally, students created a cover that captured the subject of the book using collage techniques. Starting this week, students will be working with a variety of mediums which they manipulate to create a three dimensional space themed sculpture.

Transitioning into higher education presents challenges for all students, whether it’s their age or previous educational history. Numerous individuals are extremely nervous as they are entering into an advanced environment such as higher education. This because college is a new learning environment at a completely different level. However, freshmen find college to be difficult at first because it’s harder for them to adjust. That’s why many universities should have student centers in place to help students. Student centers give students the pathway for flexible learning as it results in being successful in higher education (Baužienė & Vosyliūtė 2015).

There are lots of different ways in which I find independent learning positive in our classroom environment. First of all, I benefit from the variety of choices my teacher provides to us

Reece and Walker (2000) discuss, there are several building blocks to be considered when planning for effective learning. I will discuss the sections of the planning process that need to be considered planning for a lesson.

In order to teach successfully teachers must learn about first learn about their students. Teachers must assess the student’s capabilities and interests. Some students are visual learners, while others learn from hands on activities, or verbal communication. Not all students can learn through memorization, rather they learn through interest and relation to the topic. “To realize what an experience, or empirical situation, means, we have to call to mind the sort of situation that presents itself outside of school" (Democracy and Education). The curriculum should encompass material that is most useful for a student to learn. It seems that in the majority of schools, students are not given the flexibility to guide their own learning, but rather follow rigid instructions that destroy the student’s imagination.

As a history teacher, I want my students to truly learn history, not just memorize dates. In order to achieve this I will divide the class into groups of four or five students each. Then I will have each group pick a piece of history that they want to study from a selection that the class is going to learn about on American history. I will let the groups choose which event they want to have because students learn better, when they are interested in the subject. According to the textbook Introduction to Teaching, students “best courses were those that had them work on projects (e.g., science projects) that allowed them to solve problems that were interesting to them or to write about topics that were important to them” (Kauchak & Eggen, 2014, p. 157). This project will make learning a fun experience for them while providing skills to work together as a team to
