This document presents a conceptual framework for teacher education. It contrasts a technical focus approach where teachers are seen as classroom-focused subject experts who employ behaviorist teaching methods, versus a reflective practice approach. Reflective practice views teachers as agents of social change who critically examine the socio-economic relevance and aims of education to transform outcomes through moral craftsmanship. The framework positions reflective practice as transforming teachers into professionals who consider the broader impacts of education.

Action research is the small intervention conducted by any practitioner. So each & every person must know the way of conducting action research. How to conduct action research that is described in this presentation.
Action Research
This document outlines action research, including its definition, advantages, 4 steps, and threats to validity. Action research is conducted by educators to solve local problems. Its advantages include being done by anyone in any school to investigate problems and improve practice. The 4 steps are: 1) identifying the research question, 2) gathering information through methods like observations and interviews, 3) analyzing and interpreting the data, and 4) developing an action plan based on findings. Threats to validity include data collector bias and limited generalizability.

This document discusses the differences between pedagogy and andragogy as approaches to teaching. Pedagogy refers to teaching children, focusing on a teacher-centered approach where the teacher's experience is most influential. Andragogy refers to teaching adults and is based on six assumptions about adult learners: they are self-directed, draw on life experiences, learn based on real-world application, and are internally motivated. Andragogical principles promote critical thinking, problem-solving, and self-directed learning. When applied to an academic setting, andragogy positions the learner as an experienced resource and emphasizes relevance, problem-centered orientation, and internal motivations for learning.

The document discusses a paper titled "Teachers Make A Difference" which aims to establish the profile of an expert teacher. It reviews literature on the influences on student achievement and identifies five dimensions of excellent teachers: identifying essential representations, guiding learning through interactions, monitoring learning and providing feedback, attending to affective attributes, and influencing student outcomes. The key finding is that teachers have the greatest impact on student achievement and expert teachers demonstrate attributes like challenge, deep representation, and feedback.
Pl2 learning styles
This document discusses different learning styles and models. It summarizes three common learning style models: Felder-Silverman, Kolb's, and Myers-Briggs. The Felder-Silverman model categorizes learners based on their preferences for sensing/intuition, visual/verbal, active/reflective, and sequential/global dimensions. Kolb's model categorizes learners into four types based on how they grasp and process information. The Myers-Briggs model categorizes learners based on extraversion/introversion, sensing/intuition, thinking/feeling, and judging/perceiving dimensions. The document recommends that instructors teach to all styles by using various materials, balancing concrete
Open book system
The document discusses the open book examination system. It has several key advantages: it tests higher-order thinking skills like problem solving rather than memorization; reduces exam anxiety; and allows students freedom and flexibility in exams. There are two types - restricted allows limited materials, while unrestricted allows any materials. Implementing open book exams changes teaching strategies, shifting focus from information giving to facilitating understanding. It improves students' learning by discouraging copying and developing skills in knowledge application and self-learning. Potential disadvantages include students relying too heavily on materials or including irrelevant information in exams.
Strategies of Teaching Mathematics
This document discusses several strategies for teaching mathematics, including group work, self-study, supervised study, and brainstorming. Group work involves dividing students into smaller groups based on ability to allow for greater attention. Self-study requires individual learning without help, while supervised study takes place under a teacher's direction. Brainstorming is a method where students freely generate ideas in response to a topic or question. The document provides details on how each strategy can be implemented and their advantages and disadvantages.

Ana's thesis - Dec13
This document outlines two plans for a research project on assessing the use of feedback as an assessment tool from teachers' perspectives. The first plan involves interviewing teachers, observing classrooms, and reviewing examples of teacher feedback. It aims to determine if teachers find feedback more effective than tests and if technology can help teachers provide feedback. The second plan also involves interviewing teachers and reviewing feedback examples. It seeks to compare teachers' views on assessment with their practices, identify gaps in their formative assessment knowledge, and help support teachers' roles in giving feedback. Both plans involve collecting and analyzing various qualitative data sources and comparing findings to theoretical frameworks on formative assessment and feedback.
Critical thinking
This document discusses critical thinking, including its definition, importance, how to improve it, standards of critical thinking, benefits, and barriers. Critical thinking is described as the intellectually disciplined process of conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, or evaluating information. It clarifies goals, examines assumptions, and evaluates evidence. Improving critical thinking requires theory, practice, and having the right attitude. The mastery of critical thinking provides benefits like understanding other perspectives and developing well-supported arguments, but can be limited by a lack of background knowledge, biases, or a non-engaged approach.
Educational psychology - introduction
Educational psychology is the scientific study of human behavior and learning processes in educational settings. It involves understanding how people learn and develop from childhood through adulthood, the learning process, learning environments, teaching methods, and how to evaluate learning outcomes. The main goals of educational psychology are to help learners acquire knowledge and skills, understand learners' characteristics and needs, create effective learning situations, and evaluate learning performance to improve teaching methods.
Research in education

Behaviorism
Behaviorism refers to a psychological approach which emphasizes scientific and objective methods of investigation. The approach is only concerned with observable stimulus-response behaviors, and states all behaviors are learned through interaction with the environment.
Students’ experiences of feedback
This study examined students' experiences with feedback over five years of their undergraduate education. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with four students each year to understand how they perceived, processed, and used feedback. The findings showed that only one high-achieving student actively sought feedback, while the others had limited motivation and strategies for using feedback. Students' engagement with feedback depended on factors like assessment design, the balance of praise and critique, and their trust in instructors. Over time, most students became apathetic about feedback as they felt it did not significantly impact their performance. The study implications encourage interactive and dialogic feedback approaches to better guide students in feedback literacy.

Educational Psychology by Mostafa Ewees
Educational psychology is the study of teaching and learning processes with the goal of improving educational outcomes. Effective teachers exhibit subject knowledge, develop appropriate instruction, motivate students, and use research methods like experiments and assessments to evaluate techniques. Research is important for effective teaching as it allows educators to objectively study problems, test solutions, and revise practices based on empirical evidence.
Critical thinking paper 2
The document discusses the importance of developing critical thinking skills in college students. It notes that American students have performed poorly compared to international students on tests requiring higher-level thinking. Several reports have called for more emphasis on critical thinking in higher education. The document then discusses strategies that can be used to teach critical thinking skills to college students, especially in freshman seminar courses, in order to establish these skills early in students' college careers. These strategies include explicitly defining critical thinking, having students apply concepts to real-life examples, analyzing information, and practicing critical thinking across multiple courses.
Educational psychology in easy words
Psychology is the scientific study of mental processes and behavior. Educational psychology focuses on teaching and learning processes. It studies the learner's intelligence, development, and individual differences. Educational psychology helps determine desirable learning experiences based on a learner's stage of growth. It examines the nature of learning processes and theories, factors that influence learning like motivation and thinking, and the learning environment and situation between learner and teacher. This includes classroom management, teaching methods, guidance, and counseling. The teacher is also an important part of the learning process by providing inspiration and helping students manage stress. Educational psychology is a positive, normative, behavioral, applied, human, experimental, social, counseling, and educational science.

This document discusses research methodology and defines educational research. It provides several definitions and characteristics of research, including that research is systematic, logical, empirical, replicable, and aims to discover truth through critical thinking. Educational research specifically aims to improve education and is interdisciplinary in nature. Research can be classified as basic research, which develops broad theories, applied research, which deals with practical problems, or action research, which is concerned with school-level issues.
Becoming effective learners
This document discusses how to become an effective learner. It notes common problems students have like being tardy or distracted. To become an effective learner, one must change their attitude, beliefs, and themselves. Effective learners take control of their own learning and can predict learning outcomes. Key characteristics of effective learners include goal-setting, time management, using learning strategies, self-evaluation, seeking help, and self-motivation. Self-regulation involves phases like forethought, performance, and self-reflection. Being an effective learner requires persistence, hard work, and patience.
Lecture 9.7.10

The document also discusses how to define variables operationally and identifies characteristics of researchable versus non-researchable questions. Overall, the document provides guidance on formulating focused, meaningful research questions.
Effective feedback in medical education
This document summarizes research on feedback in medical education. It discusses 3 key educational research articles focusing on feedback as dialogue, sustainable feedback through self and peer assessment, and developing student judgment. It also discusses 3 key medical education articles about developing a feedback culture, learning from role models, and feedback as a process of negotiation. The conclusions are that feedback should promote dialogue, enhance self-monitoring skills, ensure feedback loops are closed by learners taking action, and further develop staff and learner feedback literacy.
Exploring Hong Kong Secondary School Teachers' Teaching Beliefs of Differenti...
This study explored teaching beliefs about differentiated instruction among secondary school teachers in Hong Kong. A survey and interviews were conducted with teachers from two secondary schools. The results found that teachers generally held positive attitudes toward differentiated instruction and believed in its strategies. However, they were more doubtful and less confident in its effectiveness for inclusive education. Additionally, teachers tended to rely more on teacher-centered approaches for differentiation. The researchers concluded that while teachers supported differentiation, they faced challenges in implementing it effectively due to large class sizes, exams, and lack of family support. Suggestions were made for further research combining additional data sources to better understand differentiation practices in Asian contexts.
Deductive and inductive method
The document discusses the inductive and deductive methods of problem solving. The inductive method involves moving from specific observations and examples to broader generalizations and conclusions. It allows students to discover truths for themselves through a process of observation, analysis, classification, abstraction and application. While slow, it promotes active learning and self-confidence. The deductive method provides students with general principles and rules and asks them to apply these to specific examples. It is faster but does not facilitate self-discovery or independent thinking. Both methods have merits and limitations depending on the learning context and goals.
Educational psychology chapter 1
This document provides an overview of key concepts in educational psychology and effective teaching. It discusses what educational psychology is, qualities of good teachers, pedagogy, intentional teaching, and the impact teachers can have on student success. Good teaching involves decision making, critical thinking, understanding students, and applying knowledge. To be an intentional teacher requires reflecting on experiences, having goals for students, and flexibility. The future of education involves creativity, collaboration, and preparing students for rapid change.
4 scientific method
The document discusses the scientific method, which is a series of steps that scientists follow to answer questions about the natural world through observation and experimentation. The key steps are: 1) making an observation, 2) asking a question about the observation, 3) formulating a hypothesis or predicted explanation, 4) designing and conducting an experiment to test the hypothesis, 5) analyzing the results, and 6) drawing a conclusion about whether the experiment supported or failed to support the hypothesis. The scientific method aims to systematically investigate natural phenomena through objective and empirical means to develop generalizable knowledge.

The document was written by Dr. Muhammad Ilyas Khan of the Department of Education at Hazara University.
Selecting a research topic
Selecting a research topic involves considering what topic to explore based on personal experiences, interests from initial readings and discussions, and determining why this topic should be explored for personal, academic, theoretical or professional significance. It also requires determining how to explore the topic through methodological considerations and feasibility of execution, and considering what the outcomes might be at a personal, academic or professional level at the end of the study.
Research hypotheses what, why, how
This document discusses research hypotheses. It defines a hypothesis as a tentative explanation of a relationship between variables that is tested through empirical research. Good hypotheses clearly state relationships, use precise language, and represent research objectives. Developing hypotheses gives direction to the research process by providing tentative answers and guiding data collection and analysis. Hypotheses can be descriptive, relational, simple, complex, null, or alternative. The author provides examples to illustrate different types of hypotheses.
Research gap what-why-how
This document discusses identifying research gaps. It explains that a research gap is an unexplored, less explored, or inadequately explored area of knowledge that could add to the field if studied further. Identifying research gaps is important to rationalize and justify a research study. Potential sources of identifying gaps include personal experiences, reviewing previous related studies and their suggested further research, meta-analyses, popular topics on journals, and discussions with supervisors and colleagues. The document provides guidance on what a research gap is, why identifying one is important, and potential ways to find a gap.
Qualitative research definition and characteristics
The document discusses qualitative research, its definition and characteristics. It notes that while quantitative research originated in the natural sciences and focuses on measurement, statistics and generalization, qualitative research emerged in the social sciences due to difficulties quantifying human behavior. Qualitative research aims to understand phenomena through context and interpretation rather than testing hypotheses. It is naturalistic, flexible and inductive, beginning with data collection before developing theories. Researchers get personally involved through long-term study of small, purposeful samples and analyze textual rather than numerical data.
Mixed method research design
Mixed-method research combines both qualitative and quantitative data and analysis techniques to explore research questions. It uses both methods simultaneously or sequentially. The rationale is that it brings rigor, richness, and triangulation to data collection and supports findings by using multiple data sources and methods. Researchers must justify using a mixed approach and ensure they have the expertise to deal with its complexities.
General process of social sciences research
This document outlines the general process of social sciences research in 9 steps: 1) Identifying a research problem, 2) Formulating research questions, 3) Reviewing relevant literature, 4) Refining the research questions, 5) Designing the research methodology, 6) Implementing the research design through data collection, 7) Analyzing the collected data, 8) Deriving findings and conclusions from the analysis, and 9) Writing a report of the research. The document provides examples and explanations for each step of the research process.
Research proposal
The document outlines the key components of a research proposal: what, why, how, and when. It explains that a research proposal provides a blueprint for a proposed study, answering what the research is about, why the study is being conducted, how it will be carried out, and when the different stages will take place. Specifically, it should describe the research topic, objectives, and questions; the rationale and significance of the study; the research design, data collection and analysis methods; and a timeline for completion.

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
