My Edu 260 Field Experience Placement

This learning experience is designed for a year 1 class (middle of the year) with diverse learning needs. The lessons take into account Gardner’s multiple intelligences theory and caters for EAL/D, students who are ready to move beyond the lesson and students who are not ready to move beyond the lesson. The activities seen in the three lessons may be modified to suit the needs of individual students (refer to catering for diversity).

Integrated Learning, is where I as an 8th grader can work with K-7 Ages. How has this applies to me? W/hen I grow up I want to have three majors Kindergarten teaching, Acting, and Photography. The Renaissance fair is when we work with others to perform sonnets and sing songs from the renaissance fair. We worked with an actor and this helped us tremendously. Going into the future knowing advice from Bill Jackson will help me earn my master's degree in

Elena Wilson, Director of Curriculum and Instruction, lead a presentation to address questions and concerns about the 2016 Pennsylvania School Performance Profiles. For those interested, please go watch the video on The Cube or (eventually) YouTube. However, while interesting, it is dry. The presentation included a look at data points, a list of action items for improvement, each principal talking about their school, and look at positives. It is a lot.

This situation does not present itself as an ‘open response’ environment where children are able to bring their own experiences to the table, which in this situation, could be costly to both student and the educator. Every student has different ways of learning and according to Gardner (1999) there are nine types of intelligences. They are Verbal-linguistic, Logical-mathematical, Spatial-visual, Bodily-kinaesthetic, Musical intelligences, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Naturalist and Existential intelligence. The activity mentioned above only foster for the verbal-linguistic learning

Approximately 1.7 million students took a ACT college entrance test. The test focused on english, math, science, and reading. However, most students that took the test are not prepared for college or a job. English remained the same for the last five years, but math and science do not stick as well. High school does not provide students with enough information to go into a career. Approximately 40% of high school graduates are not prepared for college or a job. Most low-income schools do not have good curriculum. Students usually leave school lacking information. This is because of budgets, lack of sleep, etc. Students do not have all of the information they should when they leave school, and they are usually not prepared for college or a

One aspect of INA is the ingenious teaching approaches. Effective teaching requires a multifaceted approach, this includes utilizing Jensen’s seven critical factors. These factors include engagement, repetition. input quantity, coherence, timing, error correction and emotional states. Each factor is distinct in its function and implantation. There are numerous benefits to incorporating these seven critical factors into lessons such as engagement will induce focus and gain the student’s attention, repetition will enable the students to preview, review, and revise the information, input quantity limits the amount of information resulting in a deeper understanding, coherence builds off the student’s personal experiences and prior knowledge, timing provides for activity shifts and best suitable scheduling, error correction reinforces the lesson through quality feedback, and emotional states evokes fundamental emotions to initiate self-reliance and

Dr. Muri specified the primary misinterpretation of WAIS and its educational structure is made in regards to IB, coming as a result of outsiders lacking knowledge of what the program embodies. A sad, yet prevalent, truth is that SBISD is seeing the proliferation of people who fail to distinguish between the “IB program” as an internationally oriented curriculum, or simply a broader educational philosophy intended to encompass more global learning aspects.

Implementing the multiple intelligences theory will support the children in the scenario by catering to the children’s interests and abilities at the time, consequently engaging the children and causing fewer distractions in the classroom (Whitebread & Coltman, 2008). The EYLF states that when educators are responsive to a child’s strength, ability, needs, and interests, they build on the child’s skills and knowledge (DEEWR, 2009). This forms an important basis for curriculum decision making and allows the use of spontaneous teaching moments to scaffold children’s learning (DEEWR, 2009). This interactive approach is effective because it allows for social, emotional and physical growth alongside intellectual development to occur (Scott,

The moral of educating AIG students is that they can come in many different ways, and always have room for improvement. Teachers, parents, and counselors are all involved in an AIG students personal and academic life. AIG students can always improve on communication, building relationships with outsiders,and developing their identity to their surroundings and peers. Also, these improvements can not only be made with AIG students, but also average students too. Always be prepared for the difficulties of a student's

The accuracy of these test scores influences more than just the personnel. Regulated tests are used to determine if schools stay open as well as the amount of money they receive. Dr. Audrey T. Edwards discovered this to be true when she took a chance at a public high school to gain information about some of the obstacles high school teachers go through. Edwards assistant Judith Pula interviewed her afterwards. Edwards claims, “A single test score cannot possibly measure a school’s effectiveness, yet schools’ funding and reputations rest on test results” (Edwards and Pula). Likewise, in the Midwest, the ACT is used to figure out if a student’s possible for academic success in college and also acceptance to a college. However, the ACT does not

Able to devise and develop ways to encourage a learner further, and challenge and inspire students to help them deepen their knowledge and understanding.

The program demonstrates a student-centered form of education with the primary goal of transforming students into confident, successful, lifelong learners whose education and career

Many children are apprehensive when it comes to taking tests, and many parents which they had an effective way to help make tests easier for their kids. This is especially true for large tests such as the ACT. Crawford Educational Services provides students with everything from assistance in signing up to test prep services that will help them achieve high scores. This organization in Basking Ridge, NJ, specializes in providing help to students in a manner that supplements their education and adheres to their unique needs. With highly-skilled instructors dedicated to providing individual attention, this organization can help any child prepare for the ACTs.

My personal philosophy of IL is that when the appropriate model is utilised it is a superlative way to engage students by making learning meaningful. Research by Brady and Kennedy (2007) has shown that the most effective way to engage students is in a student centred learning environment. Student centred learning environments are created by teachers who select content that is meaningful and of personal interest which excites students to learn and think for themselves. My goal as a teacher is to use IL to assist students to understand the purpose of their learning by making clear connections between what they already know and what they need to know to foster deep learning.

Because different students learn in a variety of ways, Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences was taken into consideration when planning this lesson. Verbal and linguistic learners are able to learn through verbal teaching, logical learners through the classifying activities, visual learners are accommodated through the use of pictures and slides, interpersonal learners can interact during peer sharing or group work and intrapersonal learners can also engage in individual activities (Winch-Dummet,
