STANDARD 1: THE TEACHER DEMONSTRATES APPLIED CONTENT KNOWLEDGE
I feel that I have sufficient academic knowledge in math and every other subject to develop student knowledge and performance. Through experience with practicum I believe that I can communicate concepts, processes, and knowledge, as well as, connect content to life experiences. I feel like I could definitely improve in guiding students to understand content from various perspectives and in identifying and addressing students’ misconceptions of content.
STANDARD 2: THE TEACHER DESIGNS AND PLANS INSTRUCTION
I believe that I can adequately design and plan instruction. Through experience with practicum I have become very familiar with designing and planning instruction but I will improve in this when I have my own classroom. I believe that writing objectives that are aligned with the standards is a strength of mine. I also feel like I am fairly good at planning instructional strategies and …show more content…

Every classroom that I have been in for my practicum has implemented a positive learning environment and I feel like I will have no problem with this when going into my own classroom. I also believe that the practicum experiences that I have had at more diverse schools has helped me to value and support student diversity and address individual needs more than before. It took a little while to get used to because I grew up in a school that had no diversity at all. I also think that I will have no problem creating a safe learning environment for students. When writing my educational philosophy I thought and thought about things that could help create a safe environment and how I will make every student feel physically safe, as well as, safe from embarrassment. I want every student in the class to participate and want to ask and answer questions without fear of being

As the education coordinator, I will first approach my subject matter as a system itself. I will design my materials first by identifying their purpose, then second their function and finally deriving the structure of the educational materials from the necessary functions. In developing educational materials, I will also want to familiarize myself with my students as I know that according to communication models they may interpret what I communicate differently than I intend due to how they “decode” (Nelson, Staggers, 2014). Once I have an understanding for what my students know, I will move forward by assessing their learning styles as I believe that is an incredibly valuable thing for an educator as well as a student to know. Now that I know what my students know and how

I also believe that teachers would have to alter their syllabi and classwork fastidiously to make sure each and every student would feel comfortable. As a student, I pay to go to school to learn to the highest of my ability. But there is no way that would be possible if trigger warnings and safe spaces started to dominate the academia around me. We must be able to find a way to help students outside of the classroom, while keeping classroom discussion open and honest at the most consistent

U1 AC 2.1 - Explain ways to maintain a safe and supportive learning environment. A number of ways to establish a safe and supportive learning environment is to stay within what is deemed as conventional rules and disciplines. A typical class room layout is rows of desks and chairs facing the front, it is the usual expected layout for learners and encourages them to accept conformity, something as simple as sitting on the chairs facing the front of the classroom is reassuring to the majority that the class is safe. In days of yesteryear the students would be expected to stand up when the teacher entered the room and wait for permission to be seated, thankfully those days are in the distant past and now it is acceptable to remain talking until the teacher is ready to begin class.

The diversity of student backgrounds, abilities and learning styles makes each person unique in the way he or she reacts to information. The intersection of diverse student backgrounds and active learning needs a comfortable, positive environment in which to take root. Dr. King continues by explaining, “Education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” From back then to today’s society, kids are failing because they lack those morals that they need to succeed.

As previously mentioned, Hannah Miller asserts that the incorporation of safe spaces is a beneficial and advantageous asset for students. Safe spaces yield an opportunity to garner sympathy and understanding from compassionate peers who have undergone similar experiences, as a result, these supportive environments increase the happiness of marginalized students (Source A). While this may be true, safe spaces impede fully inclusive dialogue, which allows students to protect themselves from engaging in difficult topics. This ignorance hinders the expansion of knowledge and aids the development of myopic views which students acquire through the use of safe spaces. Not only do safe spaces promote close- mindedness, but they also encourage isolation between students and BLANK subjects, as illustrated in Matt Davies cartoon (Source D).
