Strategies that Foster Collaboration Among Diverse Populations According to Azer & El-Sherbini, (2011), understanding how cultures vary globally, we understand how important designing and implementing e-learning courses at the global level is. According to their study, global e-learning has challenges at the level of communication, technology, and world cultures (2011). The study of Geert Hofstede was monumental and developed out of a curiosity Hofstede had about worker values as a worker himself
opportunities for specific learners, integrating NA would provide them with deep insights into what and how to teach, in light of the learners’ perceived needs, the pedagogical requirements, and the institutional context. Moreover, integrating NA in curriculum design has contributed to the advancement of the learner-centered curriculum. Unlike the teacher-centered curriculum that is designed based on teachers’ assumptions about the learners and their learning purposes, the learner-centered curriculum illuminates
it is important to address individual differences in students’ recognition, strategic, or affective networks, thus providing the best possible support by individualizing pathways to learning through Universal Design for Learning (UDL). A study on alternative education for children suggests oversimplifying learner differences by categorizing students into two groups, regular and special, fails to accurately represent the full diversity of learners in the classroom. ( Meo, 2010, p. 21) Therefore, UDL
a wide range of students with different needs and need to consider these when planning and designing their curriculum. In order to do this you decide to write a pen portrait of a learner who has particularly challenging issues and think about how this influences what and how you teach. Part 1: Case Studies as examples Case Study 3: Asperger's Syndrome The main objective of learning is to offer maximum opportunity for acquisition of valuable knowledge to all students or learners regardless of their
1st grade math class has a diverse population of learners. Some were above grade skill knowledge, some were on grade level, some were below grade level and one had a learning disability in math. To help with this diverse group of learners, there were different instructional methods used: Team teaching/Whole group, Alternative teaching/small group. During whole group instruction, the concept was modeled and explained clearly. Whole group instruction allows the students to learn from their peers through
is largely rooted in meeting the educational needs of all students instead of particular groups of students in an equitable manner and inclusively within their natural environment. Shore et al. (2011) identified belongingness and uniqueness as two important components of inclusion. They argued that the success of inclusivity depends on treating individuals as insiders and allowing them to retain their unique identity within a working group. Farrell (2016) emphasized this by pointing out that how inclusive
Inclusivity of all students is essential for effective teaching and learning. There is not a ‘One size fits all’ approach to learning. Therefore understanding students and how they learn is paramount for equity for all students. This essay will demonstrate how inclusion, diversity of learners, differentiation of lessons together with ethical and legal responsibilities for teachers and professional conduct, all align together to provide an inclusive, safe classroom for all students regardless of ability
Adult learner engagement should be at the forefront of any teaching philosophy, with this in mind, we have designed a new orientation program that will set the tone for autonomy and validation of prior learning and experience. In analyzing our first year orientation delivery, we discovered that we are missing many key components as discussed in FCP 601. In order to meet the information gathered from our FCP course, we have redesigned our year one orientation with international and domestic students
Review: Draft of Literature Research shows that students are lacking critical writing skills that are fundamental for the 21st century. This may be due to technology, some may be due to the lack of laziness or both. This failure in learner’s writing is one of the main reasons for implementing the Common Core standards. It is obvious that student’s writing skills are important in this day and time. Standardized test scores provide much evidence that students do not have acceptable writing skills. Today
Brief summaries of 2 chosen peer teaching episodes In Hugh-and-Future’s-teaching-episode, they started the lesson with an introduction-activity by asking students what they knew about the ‘Chinese language’. They smoothly transitioned into providing learners with clear objectives for the lesson planned, by listing it on the PowerPoint-slide, “to learn simple Chinese-characters and identify basic-rhythmic-notes.” The developmental-activities designed to teach the concept was to learn how to draw basic
