ICC9K1 Personal cultural biases and differences that affect one’s teaching. - Competency 4 I am very careful to be respectful of the various cultures and differences among the students at my school, so this does not impact my teaching. I differentiate my instruction in order to accommodate the needs. I am in a school with students from a wide range of countries. In my grade level, we had students from Japan and Pakistan.
ICC9K2 Importance of the teacher serving as a model for individuals with exceptional learning needs Competency 4 I believe it is very important to be a model for individuals with exceptional learning needs, because they need good examples and to be taught appropriate behavior. The majority of the students that I teach do not fall

Competency 5 This year I had a student who was very intelligent but was having reading and writing difficulties. We were having difficulty getting the appropriate placement for him due to how intelligent he is. During a meeting on May 23, 2017 and in emails prior to this conference, I pushed to get him qualified for his one on one continual assistance from a teacher during his writing class time. He really needs the direct help to be able to complete assignments.
ICC9S4 Conduct professional activities in compliance with applicable laws and policies Competency 3 I work very hard to follow all guidelines, laws and policies. In addition, I make sure that I implement the entire IEP.
ICC9S5 Demonstrate commitment to developing the highest education and quality-of-life potential of individuals with exceptional learning needs - Competency 5 I have worked with the exceptional need students in my classes through one on one discussions, making sure they have access to computers and other technology to assist them in completing tasks, advocating for them in IEP meetings and other conferences along with many other strategies to assist these
To ensure the wireless signal is transmitted to every corner of the office space I recommend routers set-up with 4 directional antennas and a centralized Omni-directional antenna. The use of 2.4 GHz routers will increase data transmission speed 460-600 Mbps and provide 11 channels per router to support decrease in network collisions and prevent data packet from being dropped (Lazar, n.d.). All computing devices must be equipped with latest Windows 10 for business and use VPN tunnels to remotely connect and send print jobs to the Austin location. In addition, all workstations must manually be configured with the latest printer drivers to recognize the device.
In reference to group size they should look for a ratio between 1:3 and 1:6. Caregivers should be trained and experienced in working in a child care setting. In addition, the caregiver should be nurturant, supportive, and responsive to children’s cues. Staffing- low staff turnover, staff support, and only one or two caregivers should be responsible for the same child. Curriculum- planned in advance and emphasis on development.
Introduction Over the course of the entire Spring semester, Triad I proved to be a worthy opponent with the various integrated assignments completed. Through the integration, it can be more simplistic as a grade for one assignment counts in more than one class. It is quite possible the only reasoning as to why these assignments seemed so difficult is through my mind wreaking havoc, having me believe these will be assignments I would never find myself completing. Yet, once I took the time to process what I would have to do, depending on the assignment, along with the support of my triad I professors, completion seemed doable.
Outcome Measurements Measuring outcomes is a vital element proceeding evidence-based intervention measures because it ensures that the intended purpose of the interventions has been met. To certain that a program is effective requires evaluation, which is supported by the strength and reliability of the proposed intervention. The goal of implementing the intervention: The Beat diabetes and new leaf for AA programs aimed at reducing the incidence rate of diabetes as indicators of positive outcomes that the preventive measures are effective (Ricci-Cabello, et. al., 2013). The principal evaluation measures for AA at risk for T2DM with the new leaf intervention program will be an improvement of hemoglobin (Hg) A.1c measure (below 6.5%),
A classroom should be filled with a wide variety of languages, experiences, and cultural diversity. An effective teacher understands the importance of culturally responsive teaching, and recognizes the significance of including students ' cultural references in all aspects of learning. Having an enriching classroom that engages all students does not mean making judgments about a student’s culture based on their skin color, gender, or socioeconomic status, rather it means knowing each student in a way that is individualized. According to the authors of The First Day of School: How to be an Effective Teacher Harry Wong, race, gender, religion, financial statue, and skin color is the least important factor determining a student’s achievement. Moreover, demographics and culture are not an excuse for students’ lack of achievement.
Benjamin Crowley Champlain College CMIT-135-45 Week 4: Assignment 4 #18 When keeping in mind that MIPS stands for Million Instruction Per Second, 500 MIPS comes out to 500 million instructions per second. Since the question states that 56,000 bits over a second the transfer time would be 1/56000. 500,000,000*1/56,000= 8928 instructions per bit
Reflective Letter on MWA #1 I believe that the purpose of major writing assignment number one was to improve our interview skills and solidify our understanding of genre as used in the context of our class. For this writing assignment I created a Weebly website that is meant to teach the class about the most important genre used in the field of computer science. To successfully do this I first gave a brief description of what computer science entails and that what it does not, I then followed up the description with a few questions and answers from my interview while also describing my professor that I interviewed.
Why is it important that students with disabilities have access to the general education curriculum? What are some ways to help these students to access the general education curriculum? If students are limited to only a resource room for their educational experience they run the risk of receiving a narrowed curriculum reduced to practice of individual skills. Exclusion from general education classrooms may also result in lowered expectations because students are not exposed to peers with skills that they are working towards learning.
Academic Summary of “Acting on Beliefs in Teacher Education for Cultural Diversity” By Gay (2010) The article “Acting on Beliefs in Teacher Education for Cultural Diversity” by Gay (2010), who is a Professor at University of Washington in Faculty of Education, focuses on educating teachers for cultural diversity in classroom environments, which is frequently discussed but not a well-developed topic. According to Gay (2010), the society we live in has a huge impact on our lives, although we try to ignore or minimize its effect on educational area. There is a huge Eurocentric emphasis in the educational setting that affect students from culturally, ethnically and racially diverse backgrounds, and because of this she thinks that some major changes
In the program, there are students with learning disabilities, students with autism, nonverbal students, students with behaviors, and much more. There are students right here at CHS that have these disabilities and most students here do not understand how to interact with them. Also for those of you who are future parents, you never know what the future holds and you could have a child with disabilities. Credibility: My mom is a Special Education teacher, I have watched her teach for many years. I have also assisted with some of my moms students.
This occurs because of absence of coursework and teacher preparation program related to teaching of disabled children as well as a shortage of qualified specialists. Therefore, it is worthy of note that ELLs with special needs cannot meet high academic standards unless they receive appropriate educational services from their
I believe that it is important that we are able to recognize the different cultural lenses and acknowledge that what I may think of something or how I see something may be completely different from someone else of a different culture, and that it is okay. I think it is important to also try and be aware of these differences so that you can understand why someone might act or think in the way that they do. I also think that it is important that teachers are able to recognize the lenses in their students as
Schools need to provide students with resources such as an RA or SNA (Special Needs Assistant) to students or teachers that want or need one. They also need to provide specific framework for students such as IEPs etc., allow pre-entry contact for pupils and parents, and create a strong relationship with parents based on constant communication. If schools can effectively provide these resources for students with special needs, the transition from Primary to Post-Primary education can run smoothly and create great educational experiences for these
Now, I realize that a student needing special education does not automatically mean that they will need help with everything and have an extremely difficult time learning. Most of the students I observed did not seem any different than the students not in special education. They just needed extra help in certain subjects. They picked up on the material much more quickly than I had thought they would and were able to do more on their own than I had originally thought. Before this class and project, I also did not think about the fact that students with special needs often stay in the general education classroom as well as working in the special education
Thus, they will achieve higher grades. Moreover, they will be greatly engaged in the society as they are building bridges with their peers from several backgrounds. On the long run, teachers, parents, and the society as a whole would develop. Students with learning disabilities should be included in the “normal” classroom because it improves their academic performance, social behavior, and communication language. One reason why students with learning disabilities should be in the normal classroom is that inclusion improves their academic performance.
