Student Engagement Plan

With differentiation in mind, I came up with a daily schedule of learning and instruction time for my students. Entry 4 artifact 3 is a copy of my daily schedule and lesson plan format for instructing my students. I begin my day of learning using whole group instruction with a whole group instruction reviewing the calendar, music/movement activity, and read aloud. During these activities, I ask the students question based upon their ability and grade level. The students are really engaged during our introduction. They get to move and meditate to reflect on their day.

Before any activity, the pupil will need to know what they are going to learn, why they are learning it and how the assessment will take place. The teacher will discuss these with the pupils before the session and when each group of children sit down to start the activity they will be explained to them again. As the pupils get used to assessing their own work, they will find it easier to look at their own work naturally. As well as the objective for the activity, the pupils will need to know their own personalised learning goal so that they can integrate them. One example of how we do this at our setting is by having a learning activity

This week I learned about differe\irente instruction. I also learn how to implement a lesson plan to meet the needs for each students in the classroom. Each child learning style is different one child might understand the problem one way and then another child might solve the problem a whole different way. I learned about exceptional children and how they need intensive learning and individualize learning. That why it is important to observe and know each individual child so you can support them to the bset of their ability. My host teacher used different strategies to help the students understand the problem. When I did my lesson plan if was a challenge and time consumer.I likle how the lesson plan met the needs of the children. The teacher put the students in different groups so they acn help each other learn. Sometimes children learn best and better from other children.My host teachger explain to me that

As I finish up my practicum hours this week, I am amazed at how everything has come full circle. As someone who came into college with no clue of what I wanted to do after graduation, I found that the Office of Student Engagement allowed me to develop as a person and figure out the things that are most important to me. As I started to get more involved on-campus and take on more leadership roles, I started to gain an interest in working in the field of higher education in hopes to provide this same experience to other college students. By having the opportunity to work with Patrick Dezort, the Director of Student Development and Engagement at Felician University, as part of my Field Practicum in Psychology course, I was hoping to get

As I was showing the PowerPoint, I had the students think, pair and share with the person next to them. Once the students had time to discuss with the person next to them, I would have each group share with the entire group. For example, as I was showing real life examples that related to the constitution, I would have the students think, pair and share then give me reasons as to what was wrong in the images. This kept the students actively engaged and actively thinking throughout the entire lesson. During the activity, the students were required to write their own constitution, but worked together as a group to create the constitution. All of the students were actively writing and contributing to group discussions as to what they would add to their constitution. I noticed that after a while, many groups discovered that the school-wide expectations/rules aligned with a constitution. The students then determined that the school rules had a purpose to keep students safe by having specific expectations for them. This showed me that they did understand the objective and the purpose of a

I am a Registered nurse with an extensive background in a variety of clinical settings. I draw from these experiences a wealth of knowledge which I can readily disseminate in written form. I have a passion for writing and a solid command of the English language. I pay particular attention to grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors. I believe in a positive, engaging learner experience. Engagement optimizes a student's success and

As a resident of this town and part of this advisory board, I envision a more accomplished yet affordable education for our future generation. As a result, I suggest President Dugan to provide free metro cards to low income students who are registered full time at St. Francis College. Research shows that our current generation do not enroll themselves in college right after high school for several reasons, and one of them being losing their transportation resources.

Even the teacher that have the same type of style they do different things with that particular style. For example, both the English teacher had a traditional lecture teaching style, but the English teacher had some collaboration with her lecturing while the social science teacher didn’t allow for collaboration she just talked. Both the choir class and the physical education class had the facilitator style teaching, but the physical education has a supervisory role while the choir teacher has more of an interactive role. All of the teachers that I observed had all different types of learning styles. All of the different learning styles appears to work for each individual teacher.

Furthermore, I have tried to incorporate all types of learning styles too. For visual: we are watching a YouTube video on fractions, for audio we are repeating a riddle, for kinesthetic we are getting up and putting ourselves on the number line. The end of each lesson is an EXIT Ticket to allow for any changes or preparations to be made for the next day. After the third learning segment, that EXIT Ticket will be the

In education, student engagement refers to the degree of attention, curiosity, interest, optimism, and passion that students show when they are learning or being taught, which extends to the level of motivation they have to learn and progress in their education. Student engagement is not one variable but six and may be discussed in schools as intellectual engagement, emotional engagement, behavioral engagement, physical engagement, social engagement, and cultural engagement ( Hidden Curriculum). To get students engaged intellectually teachers should create lessons, assignments, and projects that appeal to students interests or simulate curiosity ( Hidden Curriculum). Providing students with academic choices in the classroom is another

Student who dorm on campus will have a lesser effect because not having to travel as much compare to the commuters. According to an article from the National Survey of Student Engagement did a survey back in 2000 and 2001 over a sample population of 105,000 first year students and seniors about their engagement, satisfaction, and management skills. Although this research is investigated on multiple universities and a bigger sample population where there is different setting and other contributing factors, however, the data does correlate and explain the effect it has on commuters.

There is extensive research on the first-year experience and how college affects students during the first college year (Upcraft, Gardner, Barefoot, & Associates, 2005). Additionally, multiple institutional studies have illustrated the effects of first-year colleges, such as University College, on student retention, grade point average, and graduation rates (Strommer, 1993). Further, the uses of NSSE data have illustrated the impact of educationally purposeful activities on student success such as retention and graduation rates (Kuh, 1993; Kuh, 1995; Kuh, 2003; Kuh, 2004; Kuh, 2008; Kuh, 2009a; Kuh, 2009b; Kuh, Kinzie, Cruce, Shoup, & Gonyea, 2007; Pike, 2004; Tinto, 1993). However, there are no empirical studies on how first-year

The learning activities that will be the main focus of the sequence of lessons will be independent work and small group work. My rationale for choosing independent work is that this gives students the opportunity to test themselves on how well they know the material. It, also, allows for me to see where they are at individually and to manage their growth throughout the lesson. My rationale for choosing small group work is because it allows for students to work more personally with me in a more comfortable environment. Some students become intimidated and don’t feel comfortable to ask questions they may have in front of the whole class, but do when they are only with four or five other students. It allows for a better learning environment.

Another method that can be used is the Conference method. The Conference method requires a larger group of people to be fully effective. When using this method the teacher/facilitator will start the discussion with a leading question and let the students take charge from there. Although the teacher will not completely be in charge he/she will still try to keep the discussion on track and controlled. The students will focus on a specific topic, and everyone should be engaging with their personnel experiences, ideas, and opinions. They should be defending their opinions and point out why they think what they think about the discussed topic.

I not to picky when it comes to teaching styles and teachers, however I prefer to be challenged in class while engaging with a
