Module 1 –Discussion 1-2 What is your Capstone Topic? My Capstone will be on woman in Leadership position in corporate America. I will discuss the obstacles that some of the woman experience while in leadership position. Want to compare woman in leadership position in corporate America and woman in Leadership in other countries.
I found it particularly difficult to differentiate a task when I don’t know the students I will be differentiating for and according to Chapter 4 of Teaching Humanities and Social Sciences “Each students learning is monitored through assessment and teacher observation to identify the student’s progress and any problems that might be limiting his or her learning.” (Gilbert, R., & Hoepper, B., 2016). As a result, I think to accommodate diverse learning needs well I will need to know the students I will be altering. However I think one of the best aspects of the humanities is that it is so diverse and is able to cater to different people and learning
Explain how the ethos, mission, aims and values of a school may be reflected in working practices. The ethos, mission, aims and values of the school should be known very well before entering the school setting as it is part and parcel of the environment of the school and the daily practice of the staff and pupils there. All adults that work and are part of setting have the responsibility to model the standards of behaviour, with the children and amongst the colleagues. Good association and strong dealings between adults will encourage the good behaviour in children. All children as an individual should be respected within the school.
The Goals 2000: Educate America Act was a vital step to reform American education. The overall intent was to aid the nation move toward a system that was based on high standards that all students could meet —a system that will provide both equity and excellence for all of the pupils in this country. The police targeted state-grade support for reform in curriculum and assessment standards. By emphasizing standards-based reform and focused on content and performance standards, along with accountability for improvement, assessment, student performance, accountability, teacher preparation, community and parental involvement, and coordinated changes, to make a few (H. R. 10804 Goals, n.d.). The other object of this policy was to establish a
I also address Pluralism 3 (Students implement a range of instructional approaches and strategies that are needed to educate diverse learners in a variety of contexts) by using multiple strategies, such as leveled readings, strategic instructional groupings, and the written conversation approach to teach this
This project combines problem based learning with technology and modern skillsets to promote student engagement. As part of this endeavor, I'm researching the properties of SOLE while consulting nationally. Additionally, John Bransford’s “How People Learn” approach is being implemented in my classroom as recommended by the National Science Foundation, capitalizing on its capability to foster interdisciplinary educational opportunities and further enriching students' experiences within their studies. Drawing from my direct training under Bransford and the scientific evidence that metacognition, leveraging existing knowledge, and working in a conducive environment are essential for learning success; I concur with Thoreau's insistence that peers represent one of the most powerful tools available to
“The behavior of difficult-to-manage students can be improved through providing interesting lessons on topics of personal relevance that permit active involvement and lead to competencies students consider important” (Charles & Senter, 2005, p. 131). This statement summarizes perfectly the idea that when students are engaged and learning about topics that are meaningful to them, their world opens up and they begin to see a purpose in what they are doing. According to Trevor Muir, a teacher and author of The Epic Classroom, conflict can motivate students and develop a sense of curiosity (T. Muir, personal communication, February 20, 2018). When students are presented with a real world conflict, they become motivated to find a solution. Project-based
The “one size fits all teaching approach” is unreliable as it assumes that all students learn in similar ways. Curriculums should be differentiated to cater for the specific requirements for each individual student. Only then can students obtain the finest possible education and be equipped for future achievement (Brady & Kennedy, 2013). In countless schools it is common for a student's day to mainly involve sitting at a desk, listening to an educator speak, and recording notes in preparation for assessment. However, when taking into consideration that not all students learn efficiently with this process, it becomes clear that differentiating for students with diverse educational needs is essential (Tomlinson, 2014).
Goals and Philosophy The goals of my research program are as follows: • Develop a diverse and productive research program based on psychological principles. • Provide a strong scientific basis for the utilization of psychological standards and research methods to repair ensuing problems in the working environment and enhance personal satisfaction. • Work at training graduate and undergraduate students in research and study workplace productivity, management, and employee working styles. This will introduce methods to improve the morale, and personality of the personnel for a company or organization.
Within the realm of education, there are numerous ideologies that may be utilized to construct a curriculum. Several of these ideologies are more prominent than others. With this in mind, there are four main ideologies that are analyzed more frequently than others; these include Scholar Academic, Social Efficiency, Learner-Centered, and Social Reconstruction. Throughout this paper, the focal point will be assessing how these views are applied, both inside and outside the classroom.
I have come across some inspirational teachers who have had a great importance in my life in making decisions and choices by following their teachings. Being able to perform the same inspirational function in the lives of these children and helping them become something valuable in the future will be truly amazing. It's fascinating seeing a child evolving in front of your eyes, under your guidance and helping them get back on their feet when they fall. Whilst applying for colleges and picking the right subjects for me, I received very little guidance in what route I should take and so because of this I was unsure of what I wanted to do in the future. After months of searching a role I wanted to pursue, I finally realised I wanted to base my career around children
I have learned how to modify the Creative Curriculum to provide quality education and a challenging learning environment for cultural and diverse
Use of group goals or group rewards augments the achievement outcomes of co-operative learning if and only if the group rewards are based on the individual learning of all group members (Slavin, 1995). Most often, this means that team scores are computed based on average scores on tests/quizzes which all teammates take individually, without teammates’ help. For instance, in Student Teams Achievement Divisions, or STAD (Slavin, 1994), students work in mixed-ability groups to master material initially presented by the teacher. Following this, students take individual tests/quizzes on the material and the teams may receive grades based on the degree to which team members have improved over their own past performance. For this, it is essential to ensure that all team members have learned, they explain concepts to each other, help each other practice and encourage each other to achieve.
Introduction Over the past year, I have learned a lot of valuable lessons in the VIC151 course. Not only did the course challenge me to question my previous beliefs on education, it also provided me the opportunity to expand my understanding of a number of interesting topics such as social justice education, mindfulness, holistic education, progressive education, and multicultural education. The following portfolio is an amalgamation of the various items I believe represent my experience in the VIC151 course. Philosophy of Teaching Critical Pedagogy
I am destined to seek a career in research, telecommunication industry and teaching. My research interest is towards wireless communication, optimisation algorithms, game theory, signal processing related to future 5th generation (5G) cellular technology and heterogeneous wireless networks. The research intends to develop wireless communication protocols for 5G systems. Given my academic background and skill set I believe I will be an apt addition in Melbourne University research team. I am honored of the fact that I would get an opportunity to work with ARC sponsored project at Melbourne University.
