READER RESPONSE- comment on the posts of two classmates
BRIDGET’S POST:
In listening to the lectures and reading over Writing Contexts in The Little Seagull Handbook, one of the things that struck me is the idea of critical thinking and how it relates to critical reading. I've always thought of myself as a critical thinker. I enjoying trying to understand why people do the things they do or why things happen the way they do, but I realize now that I can apply critical thinking to the things I read as well as what I write. I have been out of school for over 20 years and training myself to be a student again is going to be a struggle, but hopefully I can apply my own critical thinking skills to other areas like writing and reading as well. I want to be able to ask myself if there is a deeper meaning in what an author wrote or how a character reacts? I also want to try and write in a way that is more than just superficial and at-face-value.
DILLON’S POST:
Module 1 has covered the basics of effectively writing and organizing parts of what you read and also covering the basics of plagiarism. I feel that critical reading is a very important stepping stone to apply what you have learned onto paper. It should involve you getting a deep understanding of what the writers main purpose is. You should do so by taking notes, highlighting important topics, thoroughly analyzing the writers thoughts, and considering reference works.
Ive also learned that is is important to prepare for what you are going to write. It should start with brainstorming and getting an abundance of important ideas that fit the target topic. After getting ideas you should break down these ideas into different sections to effectively apply them into well worded paragraphs. I find it is also important to go over what you have wrote multiple times by proof reading and fixing any spelling or grammatical errors that you can find.
Although I have learned much in this module, I have a very long way to go to become a good writer. This subject is something I have always struggled with, but I hope this course will better my knowledge and capabilities.
LIFE & LITERACY - comment on the posts of two classmates
HAILEY’S POST:
Literacy holds a special place in everyone’s life, whether they believe it or not. From the fairytales and bed-time stories, my father would read to me every night to the poetry we write and share now. For me, writing is a way of facing my fears as well as expressing the emotions I could not say aloud while being able to accept the grievances and losses I have overcome. In school, we explored many different genres and time periods in which we compared authors, poets, and even playwrights with one another, seeking their true meanings behind each line or phrase. We would analyze the author’s every thought from sentence to sentence, sometimes even word to word within a sentence. When it co.
This self-analysis essay discusses the author's writing strengths and weaknesses. The author used to be a procrastinator who would wait until the night before a paper was due to start writing. This resulted in grammatical errors due to a lack of proofreading time. However, the author's writing has improved in this class by learning different writing styles like summarizing and analyzing. The author can now write a thesis statement and take writing in steps to avoid procrastinating. While the author's writing habits have largely improved, some weaknesses like procrastinating still remain. The author knows what needs improving and their strengths will help in other classes.
This document discusses teaching informational writing to students. It emphasizes using the writing process and 6 Traits model to teach students how to write quality nonfiction texts. An example of a first grader's writing about birds is provided, demonstrating concepts like organization, word choice, and voice. Teachers are encouraged to model writing for students using strategies like write alouds, shared writing, and writing workshop on a daily basis. The goal is for students to gain experience in writing to both improve their writing skills and to help them learn content in different subject areas.
This document discusses strategies for teaching reading comprehension to struggling readers. It recommends explicitly teaching comprehension strategies like making inferences. The author believes that comprehension is the goal of reading and is best taught through modeling strategies, guided practice, and independent practice. While some students may struggle with word recognition, comprehension requires understanding words as well as using strategies to derive meaning. Teachers should assess students' needs, provide direct instruction in areas of weakness, and help students develop a love of reading.
The document discusses academic writing and reflection. It begins by noting the importance of reflection in furthering one's potential as a learner and becoming an honors student. It then reflects on the author's past educational experiences from elementary through high school, noting opportunities for growth and success, as well as a defining struggle in 8th grade math that provided a lesson in growth versus fixed mindsets. The author concludes by resolving to maintain a growth mindset and habit of reflection to continue improving as a student.
The document discusses strategies for improving students' vocabulary. It recommends that teachers encourage students to read extensively to learn new words indirectly through context. It also stresses the importance of direct vocabulary instruction, such as teaching individual words before reading and using word learning strategies like dictionaries and word parts. The key message is that both indirect learning through reading and direct instruction of words and strategies are needed to develop a strong vocabulary.

Received: April 14, 2012; Revised: September 3, 2012
This paper reports the effects of annealing and age hardening heat treatments on the microstructural
morphology and mechanical properties of 7075 Al alloy. The material was cast in the form of round
cylindrical rods inside green sand mould from where some samples were rapidly cooled by early
knockout and others gradually cooled to room temperature. From the samples that were gradually
cooled some were annealed while others were age hardened. Both the as-cast in each category and
heat treated samples were subjected to some mechanical tests and the morphology of the resulting
microstructures were characterised by optical microscopy. From the results obtained there is formation
of microsegregations of MgZn

during gradual solidification which was not present during rapid
cooling. It was also found out that age hardening and annealing heat treatment operation eliminated
these microsegregations and improve mechanical properties of 7075 Al alloy. It is concluded that
microsegregation can be eliminated by rapid solidification and appropriate heat treatment process.

1. Introduction
Aluminium and its alloys are used in a variety of cast and
wrought forms and conditions of heat treatment. For over
70 years, it ranks next to iron and steel in the metal market.
The demand for aluminium grows rapidly because of its
unique combination of properties which makes it becomes
one of the most versatile of engineering and construction
material1-3.
The optimum properties of aluminium are achieved by
alloying additions and heat treatments. This promotes the
formation of small hard precipitates which interfere with
the motion of dislocations and improve its mechanical
properties4-7. One of the most commonly used aluminium
alloy for structural applications is 7075 Al alloy due to its
attractive comprehensive properties such as low density, high
strength, ductility, toughness and resistance to fatigue8-11. It
has been extensively utilized in aircraft structural parts and
other highly stressed structural applications12-16.
But aluminium-zinc alloy as it is in 7075 Al alloy is

Five Stages of Negotiating
All negotiations are different. Simple negotiations, such as choosing which movie to rent, need not require an extensive negotiation process. However, when negotiations involve significant or complex issues, you should consider using the five-stage process model
Negotiating consists of five stages: (1) preparation and planning, (2) defining ground rules, (3) clarifying and justifying your case, (4) bargaining and problem solving, and (5) closure and implementation.
These stages are described below. 1. Preparation and planning. Without question, preparation and planning are the keys to successful deal making. While some may think they can negotiate effectively “on the fly,” all negotiators benefit from thorough advance thought and preparation. Be clear about what you want and why. Gather data to support your position. Consider ways to present your arguments persuasively. Consider what the other party wants and why.
2. Definition of ground rules. Determining your own guidelines or rules for the negotiation helps you plan a strategy that can be successful. Establish who will or should be present and at what part of the negotiation. Decide where the meeting will be held and offer a possible agenda for how the time will be allocated and for which issues. The location has implications in terms of who’s in charge. While there may be a benefit to having the negotiation at your office—the home court advantage—agreeing to have the negotiation at the other party’s office might show flexibility and willingness to negotiate on your part. When the topic covered is potentially divisive or difficult, a neutral location might help level the playing field for both parties—an important consideration when an integrative solution is desired.
3. Clarification and justification. As the negotiation begins, state what you want and why. A key issue here is the difference between positions and interests. A position is a stance—typically a firm one—taken by a negotiator. “I’ll give you $4,500 and that’s my final offer.” An interest is the explanation behind the position, need, or desire that expresses why a negotiator wants what he or she wants. “I’m asking for $5,000 because the car has low miles, an u.
Dylan Rodríguez ends his essay with the following questionsHo.docxkanepbyrne80830
Dylan Rodríguez ends his essay with the following questions:
How has the state-structured influx of Asian and Pacific Rim migrant populations, and the subsequent emergence of contemporary Asian American communities, helped to further displace criminalized Black and Brown populations and amplify what Marable calls the ‘‘subtle apocalypse’’ of mass-based civic death?
How might the 1965 Immigration Act be re-narrated such that it is understood less as an ambivalent emblem of opportunity, liberal democracy, and freedom, and more as a fundamental facet of an American movement toward new forms of mass-based captivity and bodily immobilization, that is, as the harbinger of new forms of ‘‘unfreedom’’ as primary modes of social organization under the logic of white supremacist global capital?
Will it be possible to muster the intellectual creativity and political will to articulate a rupturing critique of the field’s operative structural, political, and theoretical assumptions, in order to develop a radical critique of the prison industrial complex that may fundamentally alter Asian American Studies (and Ethnic Studies) as attempted practices of social transformation?
Choose one of these questions, and give a preliminary answer. Do not worry if your answer is incomplete. It will be. That is fine. Do your best.

This document discusses the context of a secular world that emerged in Western Europe in the mid-20th century following two world wars. Scientific advances, democracy, universal education, and influential thinkers like Marx, Freud, and Nietzsche challenged religious beliefs and the authority of the church. Christianity became a small minority faith in a much larger culture with many competing viewpoints. This threw Christian faith into crisis and caused many people to drift away from the church, questioning the meaning and truth of traditional doctrines.

Abstract
Objective This review investigated the effect of the various models of nursing care delivery using the diverse levels
of nurses on patient and nursing outcomes.
Methods All published studies that investigated patient and nursing outcomes were considered. Studies were
included if the nursing delivery models only included nurses with varying skill levels. A literature search was
performed using the following databases: Medline (1985–2011), CINAHL (1985–2011), EMBASE (1985 to current)
and the Cochrane Controlled Studies Register (Issue 3, 2011 of Cochrane Library). In addition, the reference lists of
relevant studies and conference proceedings were also scrutinised. Two reviewers independently assessed the
eligibility of the studies for inclusion in the review, the methodological quality and extracted details of eligible studies.
Data were analysed using the RevMan software (Nordic Cochrane Centre, Copenhagen, Denmark).
Results Fourteen studies were included in this review. The results reveal that implementation of the team nursing
model of care resulted in significantly decreased incidence of medication errors and adverse intravenous outcomes,
as well as lower pain scores among patients; however, there was no effect of this model of care on the incidence of
falls. Wards that used a hybrid model demonstrated significant improvement in quality of patient care, but no
difference in incidence of pressure areas or infection rates. There were no significant differences in nursing outcomes
relating to role clarity, job satisfaction and nurse absenteeism rates between any of the models of care.
Conclusions Based on the available evidence, a predominance of team nursing within the comparisons is
suggestive of its popularity. Patient outcomes, nurse satisfaction, absenteeism and role clarity/confusion did not differ
across model comparisons. Little benefit was found within primary nursing comparisons and the cost effectiveness
of team nursing over other models remains debatable. Nonetheless, team nursing does present a better model for
inexperienced staff to develop, a key aspect in units where skill mix or experience is diverse.
Key words: evidence-based practice, nursing, systemat.

e-mail is a major area of focus for information governance (IG) .docxkanepbyrne80830
e-mail is a major area of focus for information governance (IG) efforts, and has become the most common business software application and the backbone of business communications today. In addition, the authors provided details to support their position by providing 2013 survey results from 2,400 corporate e-mail users from a global perspective. The results indicated that two-thirds of the respondents stated that e-mail was their favorite form of business communication which surpassed not only social media but also telephone and in-person contact.
Q1: With this detail in mind,

Five Stages of Negotiating
All negotiations are different. Simple negotiations, such as choosing which movie to rent, need not require an extensive negotiation process. However, when negotiations involve significant or complex issues, you should consider using the five-stage process model
Negotiating consists of five stages: (1) preparation and planning, (2) defining ground rules, (3) clarifying and justifying your case, (4) bargaining and problem solving, and (5) closure and implementation.
These stages are described below. 1. Preparation and planning. Without question, preparation and planning are the keys to successful deal making. While some may think they can negotiate effectively “on the fly,” all negotiators benefit from thorough advance thought and preparation. Be clear about what you want and why. Gather data to support your position. Consider ways to present your arguments persuasively. Consider what the other party wants and why.
2. Definition of ground rules. Determining your own guidelines or rules for the negotiation helps you plan a strategy that can be successful. Establish who will or should be present and at what part of the negotiation. Decide where the meeting will be held and offer a possible agenda for how the time will be allocated and for which issues. The location has implications in terms of who’s in charge. While there may be a benefit to having the negotiation at your office—the home court advantage—agreeing to have the negotiation at the other party’s office might show flexibility and willingness to negotiate on your part. When the topic covered is potentially divisive or difficult, a neutral location might help level the playing field for both parties—an important consideration when an integrative solution is desired.
3. Clarification and justification. As the negotiation begins, state what you want and why. A key issue here is the difference between positions and interests. A position is a stance—typically a firm one—taken by a negotiator. “I’ll give you $4,500 and that’s my final offer.” An interest is the explanation behind the position, need, or desire that expresses why a negotiator wants what he or she wants. “I’m asking for $5,000 because the car has low miles, an u.

Dylan Rodríguez ends his essay with the following questions:
How has the state-structured influx of Asian and Pacific Rim migrant populations, and the subsequent emergence of contemporary Asian American communities, helped to further displace criminalized Black and Brown populations and amplify what Marable calls the ‘‘subtle apocalypse’’ of mass-based civic death?
How might the 1965 Immigration Act be re-narrated such that it is understood less as an ambivalent emblem of opportunity, liberal democracy, and freedom, and more as a fundamental facet of an American movement toward new forms of mass-based captivity and bodily immobilization, that is, as the harbinger of new forms of ‘‘unfreedom’’ as primary modes of social organization under the logic of white supremacist global capital?
Will it be possible to muster the intellectual creativity and political will to articulate a rupturing critique of the field’s operative structural, political, and theoretical assumptions, in order to develop a radical critique of the prison industrial complex that may fundamentally alter Asian American Studies (and Ethnic Studies) as attempted practices of social transformation?
Choose one of these questions, and give a preliminary answer. Do not worry if your answer is incomplete. It will be. That is fine. Do your best.

This document discusses the context of a secular world that emerged in Western Europe in the mid-20th century following two world wars. Scientific advances, democracy, universal education, and influential thinkers like Marx, Freud, and Nietzsche challenged religious beliefs and the authority of the church. Christianity became a small minority faith in a much larger culture with many competing viewpoints. This threw Christian faith into crisis and caused many people to drift away from the church, questioning the meaning and truth of traditional doctrines.

Abstract
Objective This review investigated the effect of the various models of nursing care delivery using the diverse levels
of nurses on patient and nursing outcomes.
Methods All published studies that investigated patient and nursing outcomes were considered. Studies were
included if the nursing delivery models only included nurses with varying skill levels. A literature search was
performed using the following databases: Medline (1985–2011), CINAHL (1985–2011), EMBASE (1985 to current)
and the Cochrane Controlled Studies Register (Issue 3, 2011 of Cochrane Library). In addition, the reference lists of
relevant studies and conference proceedings were also scrutinised. Two reviewers independently assessed the
eligibility of the studies for inclusion in the review, the methodological quality and extracted details of eligible studies.
Data were analysed using the RevMan software (Nordic Cochrane Centre, Copenhagen, Denmark).
Results Fourteen studies were included in this review. The results reveal that implementation of the team nursing
model of care resulted in significantly decreased incidence of medication errors and adverse intravenous outcomes,
as well as lower pain scores among patients; however, there was no effect of this model of care on the incidence of
falls. Wards that used a hybrid model demonstrated significant improvement in quality of patient care, but no
difference in incidence of pressure areas or infection rates. There were no significant differences in nursing outcomes
relating to role clarity, job satisfaction and nurse absenteeism rates between any of the models of care.
Conclusions Based on the available evidence, a predominance of team nursing within the comparisons is
suggestive of its popularity. Patient outcomes, nurse satisfaction, absenteeism and role clarity/confusion did not differ
across model comparisons. Little benefit was found within primary nursing comparisons and the cost effectiveness
of team nursing over other models remains debatable. Nonetheless, team nursing does present a better model for
inexperienced staff to develop, a key aspect in units where skill mix or experience is diverse.
Key words: evidence-based practice, nursing, systemat.

San Pedro is one of the busiest ports in the United States. Environmental justice activists are gaining influence, taking on the San Pedro Bay ports over contamination of the neighborhoods along transportation corridors. Soot and nitrogen oxides from ships, trains, and trucks are linked to asthma, cancer, and heart disease. Last year, 5,339 ships docked at the two ports. The new rules are forcing ships to switch to low-sulfur fuel within 24 miles of the coast and to plug into electrical outlets while they are docked. The ports pledge to cut pollution by 45% by 2012.

Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptxKavitha Krishnan
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

READER RESPONSE- comment on the posts of two classmates
BRIDGET’S POST:
In listening to the lectures and reading over Writing Contexts in
The Little Seagull Handbook, one of the things that struck me is
the idea of critical thinking and how it relates to critical
reading. I've always thought of myself as a critical thinker. I
enjoying trying to understand why people do the things they do
or why things happen the way they do, but I realize now that I
can apply critical thinking to the things I read as well as what I
write. I have been out of school for over 20 years and training
myself to be a student again is going to be a struggle, but
hopefully I can apply my own critical thinking skills to other
areas like writing and reading as well. I want to be able to ask
myself if there is a deeper meaning in what an author wrote or
how a character reacts? I also want to try and write in a way
that is more than just superficial and at-face-value.
DILLON’S POST:
Module 1 has covered the basics of effectively writing and
organizing parts of what you read and also covering the basics
of plagiarism. I feel that critical reading is a very important
stepping stone to apply what you have learned onto paper. It
should involve you getting a deep understanding of what the
writers main purpose is. You should do so by taking notes,
highlighting important topics, thoroughly analyzing the writers
thoughts, and considering reference works.
2. Ive also learned that is is important to prepare for what you are
going to write. It should start with brainstorming and getting an
abundance of important ideas that fit the target topic. After
getting ideas you should break down these ideas into different
sections to effectively apply them into well worded paragraphs.
I find it is also important to go over what you have wrote
multiple times by proof reading and fixing any spelling or
grammatical errors that you can find.
Although I have learned much in this module, I have a very long
way to go to become a good writer. This subject is something I
have always struggled with, but I hope this course will better
my knowledge and capabilities.
LIFE & LITERACY - comment on the posts of two classmates
HAILEY’S POST:
Literacy holds a special place in everyone’s life, whether they
believe it or not. From the fairytales and bed-time stories, my
father would read to me every night to the poetry we write and
share now. For me, writing is a way of facing my fears as well
as expressing the emotions I could not say aloud while being
able to accept the grievances and losses I have overcome. In
school, we explored many different genres and time periods in
which we compared authors, poets, and even playwrights with
one another, seeking their true meanings behind each line or
phrase. We would analyze the author’s every thought from
sentence to sentence, sometimes even word to word within a
sentence. When it comes to my job, I am often faced with the
need to be a detective with critical reading and thinking skills. I
must determine who checks are being made to from different
companies and if they are meant to be sent to companies or
3. personal clients. Even when given a recipe to make, I must
carefully read over all the instructions before beginning, or else
I might mix the ingredients out of order which can cause the
entire recipe to come out wrong. In conclusion, literacy is as
important as food in everyday life- without it, you will be
hungry for the experiences you missed.

Literacy can best be described as a person's capability to read
and write. The importance of this is to be able to have the
freedom to speak clearly on what you believe in as well as
understand what's going on around you. People who tend to lack
literacy have poor education skills which lead to them failing in
life. Personally, being able to have the ability to read and write
gives me the opportunity to do well with school assignments
and achieving job opportunities. Being able to read and write
for fun leads me to express my feelings towards certain things
and communicating with family that does not live close. When
it comes down to school, it makes it easier to pass certain
classes that I attend to graduate. When working, literacy
becomes handy when communicating certain ideas or scheduling
days to meet with business partners. With all this being said
literacy is a way to success in life, without it many will
struggle.
WRITING WELL - comment on the posts of two classmates
HAILEY POST:
When figuring out what abilities contribute to writing well,
three things come to mind. The use of proper grammar,
organized paragraphs with good sentence structure, and strong
language when it is appropriate. Using proper grammar may
include the use of commas, semicolons, and where other
punctuation is used, as well as the spelling of words in their
4. proper forms (for example, their, they’re, and there). Organized
paragraphs usually have a read and response structure. The
author is given a quote or concrete detail and in turn, responds
to it in their opinion or what they may analyze it to mean.
Sentence structure is determining when to combine two
independent clauses to make a complex sentence or when to
omit parts of the sentence or phrase to make it more precise
when needing to show emphasis. Strong language is knowing
when to use a figure of speech such as a metaphor or hyperbole.
This carries over when determining whether to use a dictionary
or a thesaurus. A dictionary will show the detailed definition of
the word being used and its part of speech with a shortlist of
synonyms and antonyms. A thesaurus, however, will show a
much longer list of synonyms and antonyms of the word that is
searched for giving different words to substitute in place of the
word used in the search or original context. A thesaurus cannot
be used as a dictionary, it has examples of new words to use
that each has a similar meaning or the opposite meaning of the
word in the original context, but each word has its own details
in its definition to make it unique.

The ability to write well can be very important for many
different reasons. It allows the reader to acknowledge and stay
interested in the topic your are discussing. Communication in
this day and age consists of many different forms including
email, texting, speaking, and phone calls. Doing any of these
well requires good writing skills. Good writing is being able to
think about something and express it for an audience to follow.
Writing out these thoughts can make it easier for you to
organize your ideas for better results. Your writing may also
benefit your listeners if you reach them in an emotional way.
I feel that a dictionary can benefit you in writing by allowing
5. you to look up spelling and pronunciation errors and better your
understanding in the meanings of different words. A thesaurus
is basically a dictionary of synonyms. For example, when you
feel you have used the same words too much, it allows you to
have other options. You have to be careful too though, using
words that aren't commonly used can possibly stray the reader
away from your writing.

Which do you feel is more relevant to today’s classroom, why?
I feel that Marzano’s “9 best practices” are more relevant in
classrooms today. It is because they focus more on giving
learning choices for students and teachers. According to our
book, Bizar and Daniels have given seven best methods that
educators can use to provide instructions or directions in their
classrooms. In today’s classrooms, there is a need to define the
educational goals for the pupils. However, it helps make
teaching more beneficial because educators already know what
they need to teach before teaching. Plus, they already know
what their students need to learn and are supposed to learn
before teaching the subjects or the lessons. Marzano’s best
practices are likewise more suitable because they concentrate on
providing responses and exercising collaborative education. In a
global world, pupils must know how to communicate with other
human beings. Collective learning guarantees that pupils
understand how to come together or collaborate with other
pupils from various backgrounds.
Choose a researcher whose best practices will work best in the
classroom you plan on teaching; why?
A researcher whose best practices will work best in the
6. classroom that I plan on teaching would Marzano. I like setting
goals and give back meaningful feedback to my students
because I would love to see my students succeed and learn
something new every day because even outside of the
classroom, we are always learning something new. This makes
it much easier to set goals and choose what materials I can use
to help them learn or create a lesson plan for the day. I also like
the idea of having them do group work together so that they can
learn how to work with others. However, I would frequently
assess them and give them meaningful feedback. Also,
homework may be given to the students to refresh their memory
when they have learned while in class.
Which of Marzano’s best practices do you feel will enhance
instruction in your classroom, based on your own style and
personality?
One of Marzano’s best practices is that enhancing instruction in
my classroom would require nonlinguistic representations
because I am a visual learner. I love being able to show people
instead of telling people sometimes because if I can learn in this
way, so can some of my students. According to our book, it
states that “knowledge is stored in forms: linguistic and visual –
with the visual accounting for the majority of learning for
humans” (Hansen, Buczynski, & Puckett, 2015). Therefore, I
can have my students represent what they are learning with
graphic organizers, pictures, drawings, etc.

Bizar and Daniels " Small Group Activities." I see more and
more classroom resulting to the use of small groups. With
technology and the use of a online teacher assistant for lack of
better words; the teachers have been able to group students
together who are at the same level intellectually to offer more

Bizar and Daniels Strategies of using small groups because the

Identifying similarities and differences, because I like to help
students to ponder and develop critical thinking. I want the
students to ask more questions and not just accepting
information given to them without examination, asking
questions and searching out the facts.

Hello Everyone,
Identify those two main components and describe the elements
of each of them
8. .
1. Expository
Expository teaching can be done in many different forms.
Teachers can us a lecture style accompanied by a PowerPoint
notes to breakdown what is important. According to Hansen,
Buczynski & Puckett, 2015 the lecture method is not the most
effective expository teaching instruction. Lecture does have
advantages and disadvantages.
2. Questioning
Questioning is a great way to promote class discussion. Asking
questions is good and can help with learning but Hansen,
Buczynski & Puckett, 2015 put it into a great perspective when
using questioning it should allow the students to think deep ad
critically. The teacher must be using the questions effectively
(section 6.3).
After reading the advantages and disadvantages of lecturing,
take a stance on lecturing and defend whether you feel it is an
effective strategy.
Lecturing to me is a great tool when teaching students grades 7
and above. Meaning these students can benefit from getting the
material quickly to help guide them through a lesson or
assignment. Lecture allows the teacher to present the important
information to all students then if they still are not sure can ask
questions to gain a better understanding.
Questioning is complex, summarize what the author is stating
about questioning as an instructional tool.
What the author is saying about questioning is that it needs to
be effective and guided toward the outcome desired for a lesson.
9. Most educators use literal questioning which is good when
looking for a basic answer with not in depth thought process.
When using this method the educator needs to allow a wait time
to allow students to process the question and come up with an
answer before they just answer the question themselves. The
best type of questions to ask are open-ended questions which
allow for more than just one specific answer.
Explain why educators need to ask questions that require
students to use higher order thinking skills.
As an educator who does use the questioning method daily with
my students it is important to allow the students to think about
what is being asked and promote curiosity or critical thinking to
figure out the answer that would not be a typical answer.
Promoting higher order thinking helps students understand
material and the world around them in a different light.
Sincerely,
Desiree Beck

BRITNEY’S POST:
Good afternoon everyone
Identify those two main components and describe the elements
of each of them.
10. The two main components of direct instruction are expository
teaching and questioning? Expository teaching is in the form of
lectures, where teachers explain the concept/learning objectives.
Lectures usually get students in the mindset that learning is
about to occur. Questioning is what teachers spend most of their
day doing. They are asking questions to check for understanding
and get students thinking.
After reading the advantages and disadvantages of lecturing,
take a stance on lecturing and defend whether you feel it is an
effective strategy.
Lecturing is an effective strategy because I think the
disadvantages can be turned into advantages for students. For
example, if lectures are too rapid-paced and become
overwhelming for students, the teacher can chunk the lesson
into smaller concepts. The teacher can take a break from talking
and have students think, pair, and share what they have learned
so far. In a lecture, the teacher can add technology and visuals
to have another way of experiencing the content presented.
Questioning is complex, summarize what the author is stating
about questioning as an instructional tool.
When teachers use questioning as an instructional tool, the
questions need to be stated so students can think deeply about
the question and provide a well thought out answer. It is best to
avoid literal one answer questions so children can think about
an answer before responding and then ask other students if they
agree or not and explain reasonings. The questioning section
also suggests using Bloom's Taxonomy, Depth of Knowledge
(DOK), and questioning methods to create better questions and
increase participation. Blooms taxonomies can be used as a
11. guideline for asking questions based on the verb's cognitive
thinking level. DOK is making sure students understand the
concept from beginning to end, including necessary steps. The
questioning methods include giving students enough time to
answer a question, asking open-ended questions, and questions
where students must explain their reasoning (Hansen et al.,
2015).
Explain why educators need to ask questions that require
students to use higher-order thinking skills.
Educators need to ask questions that encourage students to think
deeper and explain why they gave that answer. Questions are a
part of the learning process. If a student can answer a question
and explain the reason, they have fully understood the material.
Communication is one of the four skills that the CCSS wants
students to be college and career ready. Through open
discussions, students get plenty of practice with their
communication skills.

TAMMY’S POST:
Week 3 Discussion: Phase Models in Group Development
12. As a Head Start Family Advocate a few years ago, the
Advocates had to introduce themselves to the classroom and
acquaint themselves to teaching after the part-time afternoon
teacher suffered a life-threatening emergency. Her assistant
filled her place while the Advocacy team was appointed to fill
the teacher assistant’s place. Creating teams for any reason is
beneficial and should meet or exceed expectations of the task or
tasks at hand; however, when a team does not cooperate, no
cohesion occurs, and tasks are left unfulfilled.
Phase one of forming was scheduling the teaching team to one
hour in the classroom daily. One hour was insufficient to the
classroom’s needs since this particular class had behavioral
challenges. The time frame was increased to two hours daily,
added a floating teacher and ‘Grandma’ for occasional check-ins
from the full-time classroom. The impact of being overextended
began to take its toll. Adding to the stressors was the holiday
and cold & flu season absences. The schedule was unmet and
led to contention among the staff.
Stepping onto phase two, storming came when several advocates
deviated from their obligations to meet other desires. For
instance, one Advocate blatantly refused to assist the team
feeling the request was out of her job description. Another
advocate would leave with an excuse. A third advocate would
leave early for her children but not return as advised. The fourth
would attend her children’s extracurricular activities. Teachers
and teachers assistants from other classrooms adamantly
adhered to their set schedule.
In phase three of norming, instead of balance and harmony,
venting became ammunition to attack another. No one was
doing their part yet complained and instigated drama when
confronted. Worse, the supervisor consistently hesitated to
address the issues. Reporting the circumstances to superiors
above the Advocacy supervisor also failed to resolve the issues
13. at hand.
In the fourth phase of performing, the facility and faculty
deteriorated. The turmoil between the teachers and advocates
grew due to a lack of relief. The parties refusing to contribute
began to lash out as a means of defense. Unfortunately, the
environment became hostile with clashing of emotional chaos.
The bare minimum of tasks was achieved.
No fifth phase of adjourning occurred due to a refusal to
collaborate efforts. The teacher who was initially out due to
trauma resigned after a brief return. The teacher assistant and
four of the advocates later resigned (myself included). Two
other teacher assistants were terminated. This ordeal later led to
a generous grant that now funds an abundant staff.
According to Lindred Greer (2014), the dilemmas could have
been remedied instead of ending in destruction. Instead of
becoming cohesive for child education and welfare, the team
launched an emotional warzone. At no point did leadership
effectively address or resolve the underlying issues; the team
destructed. Greer (2014) states that the conflict that occurred
within the Head Start was the worst type of conflict because it
is interpersonal, ‘sucks’ others into the feud, which led to a
viral escalation.

SHEMAIAH’S POST:
14. In order for a group to maintain effectiveness, healthy
collaboration, and productivity it is necessary that the group
monitors concerns while simultaneously addressing challenges
that occur amongst group members. Tuckman developed the
Model of Group Development to outline each stage a group
undergoes as it develops. As an educator I have been placed on
a grade level team in which I am required to collaborate with
six varying educators on a daily basis to plan and execute lesson
plans and make grade level decisions based on implementing
procedures that are in the best interest of the students that
attend our school. The team that I was placed on this year
consist of two teachers I have previously worked with, three
teachers I became acquainted with through trainings, and one
teacher who I did not previously know. When I juxtapose what
has taken place in my team to Tuckman’s model of group
development I realize that my group has only successfully
moved through the forming stage. The forming stage focuses on
the group’s ability to initiate relationships with each other by
engaging in opportunities for each member to get to know each
other on a deeper level (Adams, K., & Galanes, G, 2017, p.91).
When evaluating the forming stage I realize that the members
on my team successfully established commonalities and overall
group goals we wished to achieve. This allowed my group to
successfully transition to the subsequent stage.
The second stage outlined by Tuckman is the storming stage.
During this stage, individuals in the group assume the
responsibility to address serious matters (Adams, K., &
Galanes, G, 2017, p. 91) . When this stage is applied to my
group, I realize that at this stage my group began to experience
difficulty. Although several group members established initial
relationships with ease, these connections were challenged as
differing opinions surfaced. In addition to this, the group began
to disunity as some group members began to work to destroy
relationships between group members and assumed an attitude
15. of utter disregard for other members. The norming stage refers
to the group’s ability to establish specific normality’s (Adams,
K., & Galanes, G, 2017, p. 92). For the reasons listed above, the
group that I am in did not transition to the norming stage.
Therefore, group members did not experience conflict resolution
amongst group members.
Moreover, the performing stage marks the group’s ability to
collaborate within the group in an organized and effective
manner (Adams, K., & Galanes, G, 2017, p. 92). Because the
group struggled in the previous stages, the group did not
transition to the performing stage. Therefore, group members
did not successfully collaborate with one another, as meetings
are often met with awkward silences or disagreements that are
unable to be resolved. Finally, the adjourning stage identifies
the relationships that maintained when the group is no longer
necessary to operate or when the group’s interaction diminishes
(Adams, K., & Galanes, G, 2017, p. 92). At this time, the group
that I am is still operating, however this is likely to change at
the end of this school year.
