The document discusses the peer-assisted learning strategy (PALS), where teachers pair students together to work on academic activities. With PALS, students can be paired with classmates of different abilities to tutor each other and improve skills like reading, vocabulary, and comprehension. The strategy has been shown to work for all grades from preschool to 6th grade. Pairing students allows them to learn together through social interaction, supporting constructivist views of learning through collaboration with peers.

Workshop 4: “What happens if we invest in developing staff and then they leave us?” – A ‘Hackathon’ on Strategies for Attracting and Retaining Teachers, 22 January 2016.
Students who are successful have more than just academic knowledge. They have certain habits of mind that allow them to manage stress, build endurance and handle academic and emotional set-backs.
Learn six habits of mind that can be targeted for improvement and have a significant impact on student success, and explore classroom strategies to bring each one to life:
Persisting towards solutions
Working with precision
Asking questions
Working with others
Making connections
Monitoring progress and embracing learning
The principles are organized into these areas of psychological functioning:. Cognition and learning; Motivation; Social and emotional dimensions;. Context and learning; .& Assessment.

ECE 332: Child Development

It has been studied as well as observed that Piaget's theory has had a most important influence on the assumption along with practice of schooling. Actually this has supported us to generate an outlook where the center of attention is on the thought of developmentally suitable schooling. It gives indication towards an educational by means of environments, set of courses, equipment as well as coaching that are consistent with student's bodily and cognitive capabilities as well as their societal and emotional requirements or desires. A theme-based developmentally suitable curriculum particularly targeted to early childhood program serving toddlers ranging in age from 14 to 26 months that is based on Piaget’s theory.
Piaget’s stages of cognitive development aspect of his theory will be the most useful to us in our future career. Piaget’s sight of how children's minds work as well as develop has been very much powerful, above all in educational supposition. In addition to this, Piaget’s particular approaching was the job of maturation that is simply growing up in children rising capability to be aware of their humankind: children cannot undertake a number of tasks until they are sensitively mature sufficient to carry out so. However, his study has spawned a great deal further, much of which has destabilized the aspect of his own, however like a lot of other innovative researchers, he anticipated that children's philosophy does not build up completely easily: in its place, there are a number of points at which it "takes off" and moves into totally innovative areas along with some abilities. If we understand his theory completely than his theory would be very helpful for us in our future. After understanding his theory we can brought up our children more effectively and more successfully. In this way we can make our child philosophy. In short we can say that Piaget’s theory has contacted more the physical and psychological traits that change among each stage, despite the fact that this is obvious the growth of theoretical thinking and the acknowledgment of future results are of course a significant aspect in any ethical arbitration. I would like to at the present look at particularly how goodness develops according to Piaget’s theory, although recognizing, like Bee observes, that Piaget is better known for his job on “the early stages of moral reasoning in pre-school and elementary-school-age children”. Yes, definitely Piaget’s theory of cognitive development changed expectation for children now I can deal more effectively with my children. His theory is also very useful in our everyday work with children by understanding his theory being a parent I can make my children more successful or competent.

Directions: Answer each discussion question in 150 words and each response in 100 words. The attached document can used as a guide.
Discussion Question 1: Identify one learning strategy you feel best meets the needs of students with learning disabilities, such as dyslexia or dyscalculia. Identify one instructional strategy that you feel best meets the needs of students identified as gifted. Explain why you selected these strategies and how you know they work.
Response 1:
Allecia wrote : A learning strategy that would be beneficial to all students, but especially students with learning disabilities such as dyslexia, would be the strategy of "show and tell". According to Killian (2014), "telling involves sharing information or knowledge with your students and showing involves modeling how to do something". The majority of students will benefit from modeling, or a visual aspect to teaching rather than just listening to directions or content lecture. Modeling provides clarity and comfort as students take their first steps to complete a new task.
Incorporating classroom discussion, both large group and small group, as a learning strategy would be beneficial to those who are identified as gifted. Discussion between peers includes sharing diverse viewpoints and ideas to further understanding of content and also encourage creativity and critical thinking skills. This is especially true within my content of art. We take time weekly to do small group critiques and discussions about each student's work. This is time for me as a teacher to share my feedback, but also equally important, for students to share their ideas and feedback to take an art work to another level as well.
Response 2:
Wade wrote: it is not clear why the author of this DQ asks in the one instance about a learning strategy and then, in another, about an instructional strategy. Obviously, learning and instruction are not the same, nor are the strategies related to them the same. I suspect the author was just being careless in choice of language and that what we are going for here are instructional strategies in both instances. I do wish, though, that things didn't always have to be confusing.
Anyway...
RTI is an instructional strategy that I might use for students suffering from any kind of learning disability. RTI is great (n/a, n/a).
For gifted students, I would not use any instructional strategy per se. I would simply make sure to keep such students interested, engaged, and challenged. I could do this by increasing the difficulty level of assignments and/or by providing supplemental learning material.
Discussion Question 2: Research indicates that engagement is integral to a student’s mental readiness and motivation to learn. How might you go about noticing that students are not engaged? Explain a strategy that would help a teacher quickly monitor engagement and adjust instruction.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. PEER- ASSISTED LEARNING
STRATEGY
The peer assisted learning strategies are used
in many classrooms today. Also known as (PALS),
this is a class wide tutoring program. It involves
teachers pairing a student with a classmate to
work on activities to achieve academic needs for
both students.
The students that are paired together can
change over time. Thbis strategy has been proven
to promote achievements in reading, vocabulary,
and students comprehension skills.
3. WHY WOULD WE USE THIS
STRATEGY?
There are many benefits to this
teaching strategy, but I believe
the most important one is that
it is a technique used to help
the children progress their
development together.
4. WHAT GRADES CAN USE THIS?
Pals has been shown to work with all different grades. It initially started with children in grades 2-6.
I have personally used this working with my pre-school and kindergarten children. I found that it helps them
improve many different functions from cognitive to physical, and to social. It took some children time to warm
up to this, but once they became comfortable with a partner on their level they worked hard to improve simple
skills.
I would pair up my preschoolers to do something as simple as do a puzzle. I would place one child who could
almost complete it with the child who did not know where to start. My student who knew what to do showed the
other child, and they learned together how to finish the task.

6. THEORIES
BEHIND PEER
ASSISTED
LEARNING
STRATEGIES
I believe that the peer-assisted learning strategy ties in with Constructivist
views of learning. This is a term used by philosophers, curriculum designers,
psychologist, educators, and many more.
“Constructivist perspectives are grounded in the research of Piaget; Vygotsky;
the Gestalt psychologist; Bartlett, Bruner, and Rogoff; as well as the
philosophy of John Dewey and the work in anthology of Jean Lave; to mention
just a few intellectual roots” (Woolfolk,2016 Ch.10 pg. 373)
This was said to believe there is no one constructive theory, but I believe that
peer- assisted learning falls in with the second central point that all these
theorist agreed upon.
“Social interactions are important in this knowledge construction process.”
(Bruning, Schraw, & Norby; 2011)
In my opinion peer-assisted learning is nothing but social interaction, and
interactions with others is so crucial to a child's development.
