A few techniques can be adapted, namely field notes, running records and miscue analysis, and checklists and observation guides. For teachers with strong observation analysis skill, observations strategy can be useful. Instead of through observation, conversations strategy is another way to help improve students’ performance. Through conversations strategy, a teacher may directly ask a student for further clarifications instead of judging via observation. The conversations strategy can be conducted through surveys, interviews, and/or conference.

The result of this study could serve to improve programs for school advancement. The study can help promote a thorough consideration of the relationships of the variables in this research in enhancing a positive learning atmosphere. Teacher Education Institutions. Teacher education institutions can use the result of the study to consider the relevance of education students’ hyperactivity in their professional education subjects like in the principles of teaching. It may serve also as a consideration for a more thorough inclusion of the topics on hyperactivity of pupils, teaching styles, and learning styles in the

An effective teacher is likely to switch and mix new approaches to suit the objectives of the unit of work or lesson. As objectives vary within a lesson, the effective teacher will move between different teaching approaches or methods. The teacher begins by deciding what he or she wishes to achieve and then chooses the most appropriate method of realizing those objectives. By injecting pedagogical approach to teaching, students can have a better chance and can engage to physical education and sports.

In conclusion, motivation and affect should be improved within students in the classroom. In order to be successful, students must be motivated and excited to learn. Since improving motivation and affect is important, there are a set of goals and objectives to improve it. To achieve the outcome of improving motivation and affect, teachers should include activities that are interactive, fun, and include movement.

After completing the learning style inventory, I discovered that I am both an Active Experimentation (AE) and Abstract Conceptualization (AC) learner. Which makes a lot of sense based on my life experiences, I learn best when I am thinking and doing. I love to take my time on assignments and think about what I want to accomplish. Making sure to tackle a problem from various angles is always something that I naturally do. Once I figure out a strategy I apply the doing piece, trying and tweaking my approach until I have found an optimized route.

There are many more trends but I chose these because they appealed to me most. Being a teacher as a facilitator means learning about student’s cultures and using teaching approaches that accommodates all learning styles. It also means using resources in the student’s communities. Culturally relevant and Responsive Teaching means displaying cultural competence, skills at teaching in cross cultural or multicultural settings. This allows students to relate content to their own

I have learned how to modify the Creative Curriculum to provide quality education and a challenging learning environment for cultural and diverse

Introduction Enhancing learning for students involves more than just being able to apply general learning and teaching principles or guidelines. In Educational Studies 1: Classroom Learning and Student Development, we have been learned about how students learn. Most importantly, it involves inquiry-based activities which familiarize us with the roles of teachers in promoting learning and catering for student diversity and individual differences. Throughout the past lessons, one of the most influential, inspiring theories is the theories of motivation to understand and improve educational processes, which means helping our students see the true value of what they are doing and giving them reasonable expectation of success in achieving it.

Based on my experience this lab, I feel that I need to further develop the skill of creativity in order to be able to interact with elementary aged students. Creativity is an important skill to have when creating a lesson plan or activities for the students to do. I want to make sure that when I do make the lesson plan that it is interesting to them and they will want to participate. 4. To make this both a better experience for me and the students at the elementary school it is important to consider how to communicate in a way that will help the students with diverse learning styles.

The motivational psychology researchers discovered several useful approaches and practices that can be implemented in the classroom for effective learning to take place (Miller, 2012). Teachers are using differentiation to support teaching and learning. Differentiation can vary in pace, activities, resources, teaching and learning styles in an attempt to best meet the needs of individual student. Various teaching strategies such as cooperative learning, active learning, role play and games and pedagogic tools are being integrated in educational theories in meaningful and useful ways to encourage task or learning achievements.

To be developmentally appropriate, teaching practices must be successful, especially in producing a favorable impression on children—they must promote to children’s ongoing development and learning. Children who are interested and engaged in the classroom activities and lessons learn more. By stimulating active interest and engagement, I guarantee that children will get the most out of the instructional opportunities demonstrated in the classroom. I present information using a variety of learning formats, including large and small groups, choice time (in interest areas), and routines. Routines such as eating snacks and transitioning from one activity to another are all possibly valuable learning situations if teachers use these activities as chances for one-on-one conversations with children or to support a learning objective through singing a song or reciting a rhyme.

2. What supports do you need from me to be a more effective educator in your classroom? We need support with regards to the policy and procedures that are implemented at our site with regards to Special Education law, the Child & Welfare Institution Codes, Penal Codes, and Education Code. We need to be sure that other site are accountable to the ethical practices that we are trying to encourage in our student’s. We need you to be our motivator and inspiration in recognizing the positive things our staff is doing more often.

This demonstrates my understanding of effective learning though appropriate instructional strategies because is displays how I implemented a variety of materials and technological resources to support my instructional strategies and reinforce student learning. It also conveys my ability to assess student’s through both formal (activity sheet) and informal (thumbs up) assessment techniques. These techniques help me evaluate the student’s strengths/weaknesses and the effectiveness of my instructional strategies. This particular skill outcome is important to early childhood education because implementing instructional strategies that reach the diversity of our students is going to promote overall student success. We, as early childhood educators, have to use a variety of strategies to discover more about the student’s developmental process and adjust our instruction in a way that will promote students to become self-directed

For children with learning disabilities, the classroom can be an intimidating place. Renowned learning disabilities expert Richard Lavoie explains why in the film (F.A.T. City) In this film psychologists, teachers, parents, and children including his son are asked to sit on the other side of the teacher's desk. Through a number of simulations and different activities as models (for example, telling a story without using any words that contain the letter N). He even required them to recite aloud and complete timed spelling and writing activities and it appeared as though some of the teacher were starting to get frustrated.

Public Law is the framework that exists between citizens of the state and their governing bodies and establishes rules and regulations that affect how citizens function in their everyday lives. Included in the public law are sub-divisions, such as, administrative law, criminal law and constitutional law, which establish and regulate the powers of the governing body. Regardless of the type or degree of the child’s disability, Public Law 94-142 changed their lives, the lives of their families and the lives of their educators. Public Law 94-142 was the result of two cases, the Pennsylvania Association of Retarded Children (PARC) v. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (343 Fed.
