Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ posts, and respond with a minimum 150 words to at least two who discussed an advantage or disadvantage different from your own. Elaborate on the relevance of their findings to the context of the standards movement. Challenge your classmates by asking a question that may cause them to reevaluate or add components to their initial response By: Steven “National standards are intended to serve as frameworks that will assist state departments of education and local districts in organizing knowledge and skills into curricula. National standards do not define a national curriculum per se. They do, however, specify broad areas of agreement on content that all students are expected to be exposed to.” Hall, G.E., Quinn, L.F., & Gollnick, D.M. (2014). The advantages of national standards are all the student in the country are being taught the same information and teacher are being held accountable to ensure that the student knows the information by testing done. This information is kept up with by benchmarks that this is a necessary checkpoint for when the students have learned certain subject matter. The testing can determine how many benchmarks are needed for that school. The disadvantages are import to consider with the test teacher sometimes focus only on testing and no other important skills that should be developed throughout a child’s education. The other common issue is students do not always take the test seriously and do not put forth their full effort and as a result, the test result is not accurate. The field I am entering into is not tested but is required in most states to complete high school. Physical Education is required for in the state of Florida for the purpose of educating the student on nutrition and general health. This is the area I want to teach not only are you taking the time to educate the student but you are promoting a healthy lifestyle for them as well. Reference Hall, G.E., Quinn, L.F., & Gollnick, D.M. (2014). Introduction to Teaching: Making a difference in student learning. Los Angeles: Sage Publishing. By: Hanan Standards and assessments are a way to understand where the strengths and weaknesses are in education. It also helps the parent understand their child’s progress in specific subjects, and the rating of schools. The scores of theses tests help teachers identify weaknesses and holds them accountable for the education of the children. “Performance based standards are designed to assure accountability and improve schools through exerting top down control by holding students, teachers, schools, and districts accountable for the results of student achievement” (Hall, Quinn & Gollnick, 2014). An advantage of the standards movement is providing a reference for the parents and teachers in identifying where the focus needs to be in regards to each child. This helps the school and the families assist the children in the areas t.

School reform project vs2
This document summarizes the key topics discussed in a school reform project analyzing critical issues in education, including the achievement gap, accountability, standardized testing, and the No Child Left Behind Act. It discusses the pros and cons of these topics from the perspectives of teachers, students, and society. It also provides an individual teacher's perspective on the impacts and their plan for enacting positive changes in their school.
Criterion-Referenced Competency Test
The document discusses the Criterion-Referenced Competency Test (CRCT) that was used to measure school performance in Georgia under the No Child Left Behind Act. This put pressure on Atlanta Public Schools and led to cheating on standardized tests to meet performance goals. While the goals of the act were well-intentioned, it failed to address underlying issues in low-performing schools and had unintended consequences like the Atlanta cheating scandal. The act also created inequities by rewarding already high-performing schools.
Re-balancing Assessment_CEPA whitepaper_HofmanGoodwinKahl_Feb2015 (1)
This document discusses the need to rebalance assessment in education by placing more emphasis on formative and performance assessments rather than high-stakes standardized tests. It argues that the current over-reliance on standardized tests to drive accountability narrowly focuses teaching and learning on basic skills and factual recall, diminishing student engagement and motivation. The document calls for a new approach centered around curriculum-embedded performance assessments that provide opportunities for learning, formative feedback, and summative evaluation. These assessments could better facilitate deeper learning skills and be used to measure student outcomes in a state accountability system.

The document discusses the issues with standardized testing in education. It argues that standardized tests narrowly focus curricula on tested subjects, fail to account for social factors influencing scores, and are unreliable measures of student learning. The overemphasis on standardized testing has pushed schools to teach to the test at the expense of critical thinking skills and other important subjects. The document concludes standardized testing reduces learning to statistics and ignores best practices in education.
ph1234a final
This document is a thesis submitted by Paul Joseph Hirsch for his master's degree. It examines how high-stakes testing has affected teacher methodologies. The introduction provides background on high-stakes testing and how it has led many teachers to adopt "teaching to the test" strategies focused on improving test scores. A literature review discusses the history of high-stakes testing and studies showing it has caused curriculum narrowing and more teacher-centered instruction. The study involved a survey, questionnaire, and interviews of teachers at a middle school to understand the impact of testing on their teaching practices.
Measurement and evaluation
Measurement and evaluation are essential in education to determine if students are learning and progressing. Without assessing students' knowledge and abilities through tests, assignments, and evaluations, teachers do not know what students understand, where they struggle, and what their needs are. Evaluation identifies students' strengths and weaknesses so teachers can enhance areas of strength and provide remediation for difficulties. It also allows teachers, administrators, parents and students themselves to monitor growth and progress towards educational objectives. Overall, regular measurement and evaluation are necessary for effective teaching and learning.

1)Pages 35-41 of Assessing and Guiding Young Children's Development and Learning outline four general decision-making categories of assessment. Briefly, summarize each of these. Identify when assessment for each category is most likely to be effective.
When simplified teachers use assessment into two categories (1) to use the information to work with their students individually/group and (2) to monitor their progress. To avoid being overwhelmed with information the assessment process follows four general decision-making categories. The first is Assessing to Know Children Individually and as Members of a Group. The one thing that individuals and groups have in common is that they each have their own approaches to what and how they learn. Teachers will have to maneuver working with both and how their attitudes and habits can affect their learning. Knowing the abilities of children individually as well as in a group will help the teacher to aid in their educational development and interest. Assessment will be most effective when a teacher can discern when to assess a child individually and when to asses as a group. In addition a teacher should know the strength of the individual and the group. If an issue is clearly limited to an individual there is no need to assess the whole class. Teachers should also keep in mind what can influence a child's behavior such as the environment, time of day, materials available, and other children.
Another general decision-making category of assessment is Assign Progress Toward Expected Outcomes in Development and Learning. This means that as children progress through their education it is expected that they meet certain requirements. Children are expected to reach certain milestones not only in their growth and development but also in their academic’s studies. To ensure that children are reaching these milestones assessments should be frequent can cover various aspects for them to be the most effective. The third general decision-making categories of assessment are Expected Child Outcomes in Major Development Domains. When assessing student’s teachers should focus on the major domains of child development; physical, social, emotional, and cognitive. Each domain is important to the overall development of growth of a child. For teachers to successfully assess each domain of a child is to record the progress of each, even if it isn't required.
Conclusively Expected Child Outcomes Stated as Standards is the last category of the assessment decision making. Organization in child education from state departments to school districts have written out specific academic and developmental standards for children of every age group. Standards are directed towards content and performance from the general to the specific. In this regard, assessment is most effective when it is flexible and comprehensiv.

Capstone Final: Federal Education Proposal: Early Childhood Education
Introduction
In the United States of America the demand for early childhood education and care programs continue to increase due to two reasons; high demand for out of home care for child and due to recognition that educational experience is very important during the early ages of development in a child (Blenkin, 2012). Research has indicated that high quality and appropriate early childhood set of programs lead to both short and long term positive impact on the child’s social and cognitive development. But with this understanding in mind, we see a program that is ill informed and with policies that are insufficient being imparted into the lives of the children. The programs that are existent in most cases have relied upon approaches that fragmented, and piecemeal to the complex matters that face children and their families at this early stage in their lives. Effective policies have not been frequently been funded at the most appropriate level in order to provide support to the families and the children (Gullo, 2014).
It is my belief that currently United States is at crossroads, and it is important that we must be able to come up with an integrated system of early childhood care and education which is made up of comprehensive approaches which directly brings together families and communities in the design, evaluation and implementation. It is important to invest in a child at an early age and be able to rip benefits that involve cost saving in the future. If we fail to make this investment on early child education, it means that we will be facing an uncertain future as America that will be at risk of increased delinquency, lowered levels of productivity, lower adults ready to be productive and less economic development (Blenkin, 2012).
Background of this paper
After suggesting above that the early education system in the United States might be lacking in one or two areas, one area in which I find the system to have a big problem is in formative assessment. It is important that we should understand that there is a relationship which exists between assessment in early childhood education and teaching and learning (Gullo, 2014).

This is a paper that is created to make a review of issues in early childhood education and make proposal when it comes to formative assessment. The findings of this paper is intended to better the early childhood education in United States since it will be used in support of the development framework for the early education and learning (Gullo, 2014). This is a paper that is created in order to answer questions that are related to formative assessment in early childhood education.

This document describes a project that provided teachers of students with emotional disturbances with resource binders and training on empirically supported classroom strategies and interventions. The project aimed to increase teacher access to resources and reduce stress. A needs assessment survey found that teachers most commonly dealt with non-compliance, off-task behavior, and disruptiveness. The resource binders contained 45 resources on topics like instructional strategies, behavioral interventions, and self-care. An evaluation found that teachers rated the resources as useful and likely to use in the future, and that instructional strategies and behavioral interventions were the most useful sections. The project aimed to better equip teachers to help students with emotional disturbances.
Donatoni_A_Week6_AssessmentsPP
Assessments are important in early childhood education to identify students' strengths and weaknesses, place them in developmentally appropriate environments, and track their progress. Assessments help teachers modify their strategies to best benefit each child. They also allow teachers to communicate with families about learning progress and areas for improvement. While assessments inform instruction and support, they must be developmentally appropriate, culturally sensitive, and avoid stereotyping. Overall, assessments are a fundamental part of learning that help all stakeholders support students' academic success.

The document discusses using assessments to drive instruction. It describes using pre-assessments to understand students' prior knowledge and designing assessments that involve students and parents. Formative assessments like questioning and observations during play are used to guide instruction and ensure it meets students' individual needs. The goal is for assessments to continually inform instruction and for students to become self-directed learners.
Assessments
This document discusses assessments and their importance in education. It explains that assessments are used to evaluate students and provide information to teachers, parents, and students on academic performance and learning. Assessments can identify whether a student needs extra help or advanced learning opportunities. While assessments stress some students, they generally benefit learning when followed by targeted instruction. The document also advocates for new types of 21st century assessments that incorporate collaboration, writing, and problem-solving to better evaluate student skills.

Abstract
The field of special education is consistently plagued with staffing shortages due to high attrition. Identifiably, burnout leads to many teachers’ decisions to seek career opportunities outside of special education. Research indicates that teacher burnout is derived from low levels of self-efficacy. In efforts to increase job-satisfaction and competency within the many specializations which make up special education, research supports that teacher education programs should be all-inclusive of the various disabilities and settings which teacher candidates may service following graduation. Additionally, continual and applicable professional development opportunities, for both special education teachers and general education teachers, can support greater perceived self-efficacy in teaching students with disabilities.

Preparation of Teachers of Students with Autism
Busby, Ingram, Bowron, Oliver, and Lyons (2012) indicated that the ineffective teaching of children with autism stems from a lack of motivation and low self-efficacy. Based upon this, the authors sought participation from graduate education students who reported no experience with teaching students with autism. Using a Nominal Group Technique, participants were shown video clips of instruction of a child with autism. Following the video viewing, participants were then asked what challenges they perceived would be experienced as a teacher of a student with autism. From this, the following five challenges were identified: highly individualized instruction, time-consuming parent-teacher collaboration, disruption in the general education setting, extensive data collection for students’ IEPs, and general education teachers’ lack of knowledge for inclusion. From these challenges, perceived needs were derived. Overall, the findings from this study represent that there are barriers to the effective inclusion of students with autism. In order to enhance the self-efficacy of teachers providing inclusion to students with autism in the inclusion setting, the authors offered curriculum recommendations for pre-service teaching curriculums. As the authors indicate, a limitation of this study is the population being comprised of only Troy University students. Special education preparation programs could utilize the design of this study to determine whether or not their students feel equipped for serving students with autism following graduation.

A needs assessment survey found that teachers most commonly dealt with non-compliance, off-task behavior, and disruptiveness. The resource binders contained 45 resources on topics like instructional strategies, behavioral interventions, and self-care. An evaluation found that teachers rated the resources as useful and likely to use in the future, and that instructional strategies and behavioral interventions were the most useful sections. The project aimed to better equip teachers to help students with emotional disturbances.

Assessments are important in early childhood education to identify students' strengths and weaknesses, place them in developmentally appropriate environments, and track their progress. Assessments help teachers modify their strategies to best benefit each child. They also allow teachers to communicate with families about learning progress and areas for improvement. While assessments inform instruction and support, they must be developmentally appropriate, culturally sensitive, and avoid stereotyping. Overall, assessments are a fundamental part of learning that help all stakeholders support students' academic success.

The document discusses using assessments to drive instruction. It describes using pre-assessments to understand students' prior knowledge and designing assessments that involve students and parents. Formative assessments like questioning and observations during play are used to guide instruction and ensure it meets students' individual needs. The goal is for assessments to continually inform instruction and for students to become self-directed learners.
Assessments
This document discusses assessments and their importance in education. It explains that assessments are used to evaluate students and provide information to teachers, parents, and students on academic performance and learning. Assessments can identify whether a student needs extra help or advanced learning opportunities. While assessments stress some students, they generally benefit learning when followed by targeted instruction. The document also advocates for new types of 21st century assessments that incorporate collaboration, writing, and problem-solving to better evaluate student skills.

Self-Efficacy and Teaching Students with Disabilities: An Annotated Bibliography

Abstract
The field of special education is consistently plagued with staffing shortages due to high attrition. Identifiably, burnout leads to many teachers’ decisions to seek career opportunities outside of special education. Research indicates that teacher burnout is derived from low levels of self-efficacy. In efforts to increase job-satisfaction and competency within the many specializations which make up special education, research supports that teacher education programs should be all-inclusive of the various disabilities and settings which teacher candidates may service following graduation. Additionally, continual and applicable professional development opportunities, for both special education teachers and general education teachers, can support greater perceived self-efficacy in teaching students with disabilities.

Preparation of Teachers of Students with Autism
Busby, Ingram, Bowron, Oliver, and Lyons (2012) indicated that the ineffective teaching of children with autism stems from a lack of motivation and low self-efficacy. Based upon this, the authors sought participation from graduate education students who reported no experience with teaching students with autism. Using a Nominal Group Technique, participants were shown video clips of instruction of a child with autism. Following the video viewing, participants were then asked what challenges they perceived would be experienced as a teacher of a student with autism. From this, the following five challenges were identified: highly individualized instruction, time-consuming parent-teacher collaboration, disruption in the general education setting, extensive data collection for students’ IEPs, and general education teachers’ lack of knowledge for inclusion. From these challenges, perceived needs were derived. Overall, the findings from this study represent that there are barriers to the effective inclusion of students with autism. In order to enhance the self-efficacy of teachers providing inclusion to students with autism in the inclusion setting, the authors offered curriculum recommendations for pre-service teaching curriculums. As the authors indicate, a limitation of this study is the population being comprised of only Troy University students. Special education preparation programs could utilize the design of this study to determine whether or not their students feel equipped for serving students with autism following graduation.

DISCUSSION ISSUES ON DISPARITIES IN ACHIEVEMENT
This document discusses disparities in educational achievement between rural and urban students in Malaysia. It begins by providing context on the importance of education for economic development but notes ongoing issues with rural-urban performance gaps. The Malaysian government has invested heavily in education to improve rural student achievement and reduce these disparities. However, perceptions of inferior rural school performance persist. The document then examines some factors contributing to differences in academic achievement between rural and urban students, including family background/support, teacher quality, and school resources.

GuidelinesPaper is based on one novel , Frankenstein. We ha.docx
Guidelines
Paper is based on one novel ,
Frankenstein
. We have
learned that one element crucial to horror stories is a monster. After reading the
entire novel , you will write a two- to three-page paper analyzing whether Victor Frankenstein or the
creation is the true monster in the novel.
You must pick one. Then state three
reasons/actions why he is the monster.
DO NOT:
o
Claim they are both monsters
o
Claim that neither is
o
Claim that there is no monster because Victor is hallucinating, has
a split personality, is dreaming, etc.
o
Claim that the real monster is abstract/philosophical--narcissism,
society, nature vs. nurture, etc
These are all innovative and great and may make a great essay but that's not
the assignment.
You must make a claim that Victor is the true monster
OR his creation is the true monster and support your claim.
Even though it is your interpretation of who the monster is, when you write
academic essays, you are really asserting a claim and attempting to convince
readers to agree with your stance. To do this effectively, it’s best to create a
more objective tone, pulling back on personal statements and writing in terms of
what Shelley intended and how readers in general perceive/infer the information.
In other words, avoid statements like: “I think the monster is really Victor
Frankenstein.” And use statements like: “After careful analysis of Shelley’s
characters, readers agree that Victor is the true monster of the novel.” Also, a
major pitfall to avoid: Do not claim that the monster is Victor then focus on the
creation in the body of the essay and why the creation is not the monster.
Throughout the semester, I have been posing questions on the Discussion Board
that you have been responsible for. You were then required in some weeks to
respond to a peer’s answers. The purpose of this is to cultivate interaction among
peers as you are working in such solitude when in an online environment.
However, I know that it is hard to routinely read a lot of what your peers have to
say. So this second paper is the one opportunity for you to truly HEAR several
angles of a discussion, much like in a traditional classroom, and assimilate the
opinions of your classmates.
For the essay, after you first come to your own observation about who the true
monster is then read through a handful of each of the four
Frankenstein
discussion threads (Storyline Shift, Victor Frankenstein, The Creation, and
Frankenstein Finale). Find a few posts that support your observation. You do not
need to read through all of the posts for each thread but read through enough to
help inform your selection. Throughout your essay you will need to
include at
least three quotes from two different threads (one per body
paragraph/reason).
These quotes need to support your claim. In other words, if
you claim that Victor is the monster, don’t include a quote by a peer that focuses
on the monster’s compassion. Also, be.

I have been in the classroom for over 12 years, and every day I learn something new. Every day I encounter a new student or discover something new about a student in my class that has been there the whole year. Every encounter is different, every child is different, and not one child thinks the same or learns the same. I discovered this early on in my teaching career, but I am constantly reminded how we cannot take for granted streamlined teaching in the classroom.
Teachers are not the only ones who teach in the classroom, the students in your classroom teach each other and teach you the teacher how to explain something differently and view things differently and reach the same destination to answer the same question correctly. I believe that being an effective teacher one must get to know students on a personal level. Not by reading their folders at the beginning of the year, but by asking open ended questions, listening to how they respond and how they express themselves either verbally or written expression. Teachers need to listen to their students not just hear them and move on, but take the child as a whole and help them reach another level in their education journey.
Special education is more than just accommodations; it is accommodating children to their needs and finding what works for them. Some need verbal cues to know that they are doing well and motivate them to keep working towards success, while others need positive written expression to push them over the hump and work to accomplish their goals. Most children with learning disabilities suffer from low self esteem and act up or become the class clown are constantly in trouble. They become the trouble makers or the ones always in trouble for not completing homework assignments, and because teachers only see this on the surface they push them off to one side of the classroom. What most general education teachers don’t see is how much they are asking for help.
Education should be used to empower every student and every teacher. Being an educator is more than just teaching to a test, it is planting the seed of enjoying the love for learning. We need to remember that we are educating our future.

Improved teaching means teachers were taught to teach on more of a professional level by actual people qualified to teach. Normal schools broadened their curricula to the training of secondary school teachers, requirement of the completion of high school to be admitted to college for teacher training, teachers must have a bachelor’s degree. “High school completion was seldom required for admission, and the majority of instructors did not hold a college degree themselves.” (Diener, 2008). Society has come a long way when it comes to teaching, and who is qualified to teach. Higher education is required more than ever in today’s society, and all of these examples have helped with the success of the way teachers complete their degrees today.
When it comes to teaching in the 21
st
century, full time teachers are required to have a minimum of a four year bachelor’s degree. Technology helps play a role in the success of teachers and students in and out of the classroom. Like the rest of the class we are all completing our degree in an online program. When it comes to teaching in the classroom teachers can use computers and other devices to help children excel, and outside of the classroom, the students can utilize the internet to help them with projects, and even communicate with other students to help with projects.

Teacher training is very important for teachers because they should be able to teach multiple subjects and be qualified in what they are teaching. Strengthening of the normal school curriculum and standards was needed in order for the school system to get better. In the 1900's schools exploded from 50 to almost 350, but with the low academic levels, teacher and students were not able to teach or learn at a college level. Teachers did not have, at this point, a college degree themselves. As the population kept increases and there was a higher demand for education, everyone began to need a high school diploma to be admitted for a college degree.
University enter teacher training: "Teacher training at the college or university level, typically consisted of one or two courses in the "science and art" of teaching, had been offered at a limited number of institutions as early as the 1830s, and the universities had always been institutions for the education of those who taught in the Latin grammar schools, academies, and high schools" (Webb, 2014).
This did not qualify them as teachers when they took these courses, but it did make them becom.

The biggest negative experience that I have had is with a previous employer, and it was my first day as a preschool teacher in a facility nearby. On my first day, I walked into a situation that made a huge impact on the way I viewed this facility. When I started that day, I was told that I would not be in “my classroom” that I would be filling in for a teacher that was out that day. I didn’t have an issue with that fact and was actually up for the challenge. But when I entered the classroom I noticed there were no rules, no structure, no lesson plans and the classroom was complete chaos. I managed to create some spur of the moment lessons and engaged in music as much as possible. Then when it was time for lunch, and I went to serve it, it was pure sugar and very unhealthy. I left for the day feeling defeated, tired, frustrated and stressed and nowhere to turn. I expressed my concerns throughout the day along with a lot of severe health issues to the owner and was brushed off. I care a lot about the children’s safety and their learning environment, and I felt like I was drowning. Needless to say, I ended up moving on from that position because I felt helpless and without a direction to improve anything.
I have had several positive experiences throughout my educational background. The classrooms were always welcoming, warm and inviting and it showed that the teachers cared about their classrooms and their students. Those classrooms made me excited about becoming a teacher and gave me something to work towards in the future.
“The foundation for successful learning and a safe and secure classroom climate is the relationship that teachers develop with their students (Sousa, Tomlinson, 2011)”. The teacher-student relationship is something that should be built on from day one. If the students do not trust or know you, they will feel uneasy and unsafe in the classroom environment. It is so important to form the relationship with your students to ensure communication and safety of your students. Another way to provide a positive learning environment is with your attitude. If you have a positive and fun attitude, it will show through your lessons and your students will enjoy being in your class every day which will affect how they learn. Lastly, the organization is a big key to a positive and stimulating learning environment. If your classroom is packed full of stuff or the students, do not know where materials are it can cause frustrations for you and your students.
I firmly believe there are no stupid questions! I want to ensure my stude.

When preparing for this week’s discussion post I was a little at awe, I personally had never heard of the little rock nine. And I’m not that far from Arkansas. The Little Rock Nine was a group of nine African American students that were enrolled in Little Rock Central High School in 1957. However, their enrollment was engaged by the Little Rock Crisis. Which the students were initially prevented from entering the racially segregated school by Orval Faubus, the Governor of Arkansas. When President Dwight D. Eisenhower done an intervention, the students were then allowed to attend the school. The nine students were Ernest Green, Elizabeth Eckford, Jefferson Thomas, Terrance Roberts, Thelma Mothershed, and Melba Pattillo Beals. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock_Nine)
Personally, if I was in the situation that these nine students experienced I would have been lost, afraid, and felt like something was wrong with me. A child of any race should not have to be put in this situation to feel unwanted or that they are unwelcome because they are of a different color. Many times however that is not the case. And this was the case for these nine children. My reaction would have been a sense of sadness, and anger. I don’t believe I would not have made a seen, simply out of fear of being hurt. I would have wanted to stand up for myself as well as my peers of the same color. Nowadays, if the situation would arise that an African American child was not allowed into a while school, yes I would stand up. And voice my opinion. It should not matter the color of a child’s skin. They should be allowed to receive the proper education. Without first having to go through turmoil. This situation I’m sure was emotionally devastating for these nine children. Who simply just wanted to get an education. (Webb. L. D. (2014). History of American education: Voices and perspectives. San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc.)
De facto segregation, I believe does not have a detrimental effect on students nowadays. Some adults that were raised to racial, still are. But if children are taught not to be that way. Then most of the time children learn to except another student of a different minority. Where I live we have a lot of white and minority students. Which none are treated differently. They are all in school for the same reason to get an education. My own personal beliefs are we are all children of God, and just because we are different races, does not mean.

What is inclusion?
Inclusion is an educational environment in which all students are grouped together in the same classroom regardless of their intelligence level hence the phrase used, “Least Restrictive Environment”. This practice means that an increasing number of regular classroom teachers are called upon to teach exceptional children in regular classrooms, sometimes also termed inclusive classrooms (LeFrançois, G. 2011).
IDEA was established for children with learning disabilities and has been mandated as a part of every educational facility.
As defined by the American Psychological Association, “The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) ensures that all children with disabilities are entitled to a free appropriate public education to meet their unique needs and prepare them for further education, employment, and independent living.”
Not every student learns equally; however, every student should be given the equal opportunity to do so regardless of their learning abilities. With that, inclusion provides an environment where not only students will learn together, but regular students will respect and build friendships with students with learning disabilities. While I never had the change to experience this firsthand, this type of environment will enhance friendships and students helping one another. I think that when a child is included in something, their self confidence improves and they will strive to work harder.
Second, inclusion allows students to understand one another and learn from each other as far as customs and courtesies and attitudes. Students are vulnerable to imitate what they see whether it be good or bad. According to the text, one of the benefits of inclusion is the learning of socially appropriate behaviors by students with disabilities as a result of modeling the behavior of other students.
Lastly, inclusive classrooms provide students with learning disabilities access to general learning like the rest of their peers. They will learn the same information instead of the curriculum being adjusted which may omit valuable information. In this case, these students may be learning information that could be too easy depending on where they stand knowledge wise. For others, the adjustment may hinder learning more challenging information some could be ready for.

Guided Response Review several of your classmates’ posts, and r.docx
- 1. Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ posts, and respond with a minimum 150 words to at least two who discussed an advantage or disadvantage different from your own. Elaborate on the relevance of their findings to the context of the standards movement. Challenge your classmates by asking a question that may cause them to reevaluate or add components to their initial response By: Steven “National standards are intended to serve as frameworks that will assist state departments of education and local districts in organizing knowledge and skills into curricula. National standards do not define a national curriculum per se. They do, however, specify broad areas of agreement on content that all students are expected to be exposed to.” Hall, G.E., Quinn, L.F., & Gollnick, D.M. (2014). The advantages of national standards are all the student in the country are being taught the same information and teacher are being held accountable to ensure that the student knows the information by testing done. This information is kept up with by benchmarks that this is a necessary checkpoint for when the students have learned certain subject matter. The testing can determine how many benchmarks are needed for that school. The disadvantages are import to consider with the test teacher sometimes focus only on testing and no other important skills that should be developed throughout a child’s education. The other common issue is students do not always take the test seriously and do not put forth their full effort and as a result,
- 2. the test result is not accurate. The field I am entering into is not tested but is required in most states to complete high school. Physical Education is required for in the state of Florida for the purpose of educating the student on nutrition and general health. This is the area I want to teach not only are you taking the time to educate the student but you are promoting a healthy lifestyle for them as well. Reference Hall, G.E., Quinn, L.F., & Gollnick, D.M. (2014). Introduction to Teaching: Making a difference in student learning. Los Angeles: Sage Publishing. By: Hanan Standards and assessments are a way to understand where the strengths and weaknesses are in education. It also helps the parent understand their child’s progress in specific subjects, and the rating of schools. The scores of theses tests help teachers identify weaknesses and holds them accountable for the education of the children. “Performance based standards are designed to assure accountabi lity and improve schools through exerting top down control by holding students, teachers, schools, and districts accountable for the results of student achievement” (Hall, Quinn & Gollnick, 2014).
- 3. An advantage of the standards movement is providing a reference for the parents and teachers in identifying where the focus needs to be in regards to each child. This helps the school and the families assist the children in the areas they are struggling with. A disadvantage of standards movement is that not all children learn the same way or take tests the same way. Many children become nervous and anxious during tests, which can negatively reflect their scores. Another disadvantage is when new standards are introduced and children are expected to learn and pass these standards, but that is a challenge when teachers are learning the new material along with the children. An example of this is when Common Core was introduced, I recall my son’s math teacher struggling with the new material himself being an older teacher, yet he was expected to teach this new material to the students. Teachers need to be supported and trained in regards to new standards, so they can effectively teach the children. Reference: Hall, G.E., Quinn, L.F., & Gollnick, D.M. (2014).
