Relevant Educational Research-Based Strategy For Health Education

573 Words3 Pages

Each aspect of my lesson plan incorporates a relevant educational research based strategy for health education. I use three primary strategies within my lesson plan: graphic organizers, jigsaw cooperative groups, and project based multimedia learning. Each strategy is used in different sections of the lesson plan to build up to, and support the next. The research based strategy that I used for presentation procedures for new information was graphic organizers. The material I used for this lesson was from the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey. I determined that in order for the students to read, process and organize this information effectively, they would need to learn how to use graphic organizers. Research shows that higher …show more content…

I determined that for these students to truly assimilate the multiple facets of these concepts, they would need to focus deeply on one piece at a time. Jigsaw cooperative grouping provided that opportunity. Each student must become an expert in one component of the lesson. They are responsible for gathering, organizing and transmitting the information on their topic, then they are responsible for teaching the other members of their group what they learned. If all group members do this, then they will all deeply understand the material. Research shows that jigsaw grouping works well by requiring individuals of different ability levels to be accountable and be involved in the peer teaching and peer learning (Macdonald, 2004). This strategy creates a need for students to depend on each other in positive ways to carry out the task. This strategy benefits special needs and accelerated learners with differentiated instruction. Accelerated learners can dig deeper into the material, focusing more on critical thinking skills and peer teaching. Special needs students can work collaboratively with peers and contribute meaningfully to the overall

In utilizing the instructional strategy, based on the social cognitive theory - lecture, quiz, games, and brain storming, the function shifts to an instructor, teacher, manager, and administrator. The function also shifts to a consultant or resource person to all the other members of the team – the Dietitian/Nutritionist, the Licensed Vocational Nurse, and the Fitness Instructor.

In this chapter, Jo Boaler describes several school systems who do not use “tracking,” filters that separate students into high-level mathematics classes and low-level mathematics classes. She continues with a discussion that reminds us of the harmful effects of “tracking” and the damage it does to students’ mindsets, both those students on the high-level and the low-level track. Ms. Boaler goes on to suggest that heterogeneous groups of students can effectively work together and individual students can develop a growth mindset. The remainder of the chapter focuses on teaching mixed ability groups effectively and includes an in-depth look at how the tasks students complete and the type of instruction they receive can promote growth mindsets.

The first steps in the creation of an exhibit are to select a theme or topic, and collect information to support the topic. The theme for the new exhibition are Fossils with a focus point on primates, and the title will be “Primates and the Journey to Fossilization”. The exhibition will provide visuals and explain to the general public the process of fossilization, the different dating techniques, and the conservation of fossils. The information describing what a fossil is and the process of fossilization will provide the audience with background information that they can connect to primate fossils found and how they became fossils--furthermore, will inform the audience that there are more types of fossils, than dinosaurs. The text will explain that fossils are created after an organism dies, therefore, fossils are the preserved

We do group students in reading at my school; however, we only group Advance Academics (gifted and talented) students in a separate math class. In this article, the school grouped both the gifted students and the non-identified students in ability groups within the classroom as well as in advanced classes. Due to the large number of students in the upper grade levels, specifically 5th grade, grouping students within the classroom will all teachers to provide more individual support to students. Along with cluster grouping, my school should have more professional development opportunities offered in math. I feel that this article will help teachers and administrators at my school see the measureable gains that can be made over the course of multiple years using grouping and professional

As time progresses, students know more about each other and tend to feel more comfortable bouncing ideas off of each other to form a cohesive group project. Second order change can be seen through the deeper relationship between group members. John Bonner’s slime mold video is a great representation of self-organization. The slime groups together and even when it is separated, they pull themselves back into a group, self-organizing themselves. Self-organizing is another important aspect within groups.

Time We Played God On the 5th of July, 1995, Dolly the sheep was born. She was the first living organism to be cloned entirely from another. It was the first milestone in the history of human bio-engineering, but at the moment she was born, genetic research on humans was brought to a screeching halt. Since then, every single attempt at the cloning or engineering of the human genome has been blocked by the government, for reasons of ‘morality’ and ‘ethnical standards’.
