Task Analysis – 100 pts.
Selecting teaching strategies and arranging educational environments
Graduate candidates will create 1 task analysis from the following skill selections: Functional Academic
Skill, Communication Skill, Interpersonal or Self-help Skill, based on measurable IEP Goals. Thus, a
complex skill can be taught by using chaining.
Chaining – is a way to teach a multi-step or complex skill. There are 3 types of chaining: Backward,
forward, and Total Task. (Watch 4 minute video: https://www.relias.com/resource/chaining-and-task-
analysis ). While often used as a component of ABA instruction, chaining can be used to teach individuals
with moderate/profound disabilities a complex skill. A complex skill is a skill that really consists of
several small behaviors that are linked or chained together, to accomplish a terminal goal. An example of
a skill consisting of several discrete behaviors is wiping a table.
Task Analysis – think of this as a basic GPS... Step-by-step directions to completing a skill. A task
analysis is typically created by completing the skill yourself or watching someone else complete the skill.
It’s important not to just write up a task analysis based on your memory. Even simple tasks, like making a
peanut butter and jelly sandwich, can have small important steps that you may inadvertently skip. If you
don’t teach the step, then you really can’t blame the student for not completing the step.
Chaining and task analysis are teaching procedures that help teach complex behaviors or sequences of
behaviors, such as
Academic Tasks
Social Skills
Self-help Skills
Interpersonal Skills
Design a detailed task analysis (TA) that includes at least the following components:
o Is aligned with the learning goal for which graduate candidate creates; making
sure performance is measurable. For those candidates who have their own
classroom, you may use a target student and use goals from his/her IEP.
o Allows for specific feedback from the teacher to the learner
o Measures the degree to which the learning goal has been achieved
o Provides sufficient information upon which to design subsequent, appropriate
instruction
Explain how the TA enables the learner to monitor his/her own learning progress.
Explain how the design of the TA can inform the levels or types of supports and challenge
the learner might need for subsequent instruction.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Optional slide—you may want to customize with district’s log and/or mission statement from their web site. We are so thrilled to be here in (district name) today to present i-Ready Diagnostic and Instruction to you.
While the focus of today’s presentation is i-Ready Diagnostic and Instruction , you should know that this is but one part of the complete i-Ready family, which also includes: -- i-Ready Common Core State Standards Screener, designed to see how well prepared your school/district is to move to the Common Core State Standards, and -- i-Ready EOG for NC is designed to assess student’s understanding of your state’s grade level standards/indicators, provide instruction specific to these standards/indicators, and allow for additional practice in these areas so students are READY to soar high on your state assessment.
Before we take a closer look, let me first tell you what i-Ready Diagnostic and Instruction is. It is a completely web based diagnostic (for grades K-8) and instruction (for grades K-6) program for both Reading and Mathematics. For all grade levels, instructional recommendations are provided in PDF format to support teacher led instruction with small groups or individual students.
As I present i-Ready Diagnostic and Instruction today, I am going to focus on three important points. First, we Diagnose , where we pinpoint each students’ individual needs down to the sub-skill level, resulting in increased teacher efficiency and effectiveness by allowing teachers to zero in on only those areas that students are deficient in. Next, we Instruct . Based on the results of the Diagnostic Assessment, we provide instruction in two ways. First, the teacher is provided with instructional recommendations to use during direct, small group teaching time and second, students are automatically prescribed a unique online instructional pathway specific to their needs. This combination of direct teaching support and online instructional modules tailored specifically to each student’s needs will result in increased student achievement. Finally, we Monitor and Report. The powerful progress monitoring and reporting capabilities of the program will help to increase the number of students meeting AYP by allowing teachers to frequently monitor progress and adjust instruction, as necessary, specific to every child.
If presenting both Reading and Math, use both slides 8 and 9 If presenting only Reading, use slide 8 If presenting only Math, hide slide 8 and use slide 9 Before I talk about the Diagnostic assessment, you may be wondering what we mean when we say we “pinpoint” student’s needs down to the sub-skill level. This slide nicely illustrates what we mean. Phonics, for instance, includes a whole host of sub-skills—letter recognition, short and long vowels, digraphs and diphthongs, among others—each of which is critical to a well developed phonics skill base. Any gaps in the individual phonics sub-skills will mean difficulty with word attack skills, which will impact overall reading achievement. To provide the support each student needs to be successful, you must know precisely what their areas of need are, and the i-Ready Diagnostic Assessment will provide that information for you.
If presenting math only: Before I talk about the Diagnostic assessment, you may be wondering what we mean when we say we “pinpoint” student’s needs down to the sub-skill level. This slide illustrates this nicely. Number and Operations, for instance, includes a whole host of sub-skills—understanding of base 10, fractions, rational numbers, as well as the four operations—each of which is critical to a well developed number sense and operations skill base. Any gaps in the individual number sense and operations sub-skills will negatively impact overall mathematics achievement. To provide the support each student needs to be successful, you must know precisely what their areas of need are, and the i-Ready Diagnostic Assessment will provide that information for you. If presenting both reading and math: Here’s another example for Math. Number and Operations includes a whole host of sub-skills—understanding of base 10, fractions, rational numbers, as well as the four operations—each of which is critical to a well developed number sense and operations skill base. Any gaps in the individual number sense and operations sub-skills will negatively impact overall mathematics achievement.
Students will go to www.i-ready.com to login. They will use their NC Wise number as their user name and whatever your school has chosen for a common password. The next slides show what students would see as they move from the introductory screen on into the program.
When students login for the very first time, they will get to choose a Study Buddy. Their choice will stay with them everytime they login but they do have the option to change it at any time if the teacher leaves this option available to them. Teachers have the option of turning off this feature.
Once they choose their Study Buddy, they will move to the next screen which allows them to choose a background. Again, teachers can turn off this option.
Students will select either Reading or Math.
This screen shows what a student sees when they have not yet taken their assessment. When they click on Start Test, the assessment will begin. The students can stop the assessment if needed and come back to it later. Their place will be saved.
i-Ready Instruction is research-based, is motivating and engaging, and will help to increase student achievement. Each instructional module has a consistent design, beginning with explicit, direct instruction; each contains guided practice; and each has a “graded activity” to monitor progress. This is a sample lesson from Evaluating Arguments (grade 6).
You’ve seen how i-Ready’s adaptive Diagnostic Assessment will help to increase teacher’s efficiency and effectiveness by providing information on student performance all the way down to the sub-skill level, and I’m sure you would agree that this, in itself, will help your teachers positively impact student achievement. But it gets even better. . .because not only will i-Ready let teachers know precisely what student’s needs are, it will also provide tools to meet these needs, including instructional plans for the teacher to deliver during small group instruction and an online suite of instructional modules automatically laid out based on student’s performance on the Diagnostic Assessment. So, after we Diagnose, then we Instruct.

So, after we Diagnose, then we Instruct.
The ultimate goal in diagnosing students is to be able to target individual students—or groups of students—based upon their specific areas of need. To do this, teachers need instant access to actionable data, as illustrated by this report from i-Ready Diagnostic.
Once the Diagnostic Assessment is complete, teachers can access Student Profile reports to see precisely where each and every student’s performance level is overall and by domain. To give teachers a greater understanding of each student’s performance, a detailed analysis is provided for each student, broken down by domain. In this example, you can see a Student Profile Report for Reading. The Developmental Analysis provides a narrative for each domain, with information as to what student’s areas of need are specific to that domain.
Then, Detail Reports for each domain provide a more in-depth view of what students can do and what next steps for instruction should be down to the sub-skill level. This powerful report allows teachers to focus on needs specific to each students, maximizing efficiency and ultimately increasing student achievement.
Each Profile Group has a report, similar to the individual student profile, which details exactly what students in the group can do and, more importantly, what the priorities for instruction should be. Even better, though, downloadable PDFs provide instructional strategies and recommendations for how to teach each of the sub-skills during small group teacher directed instruction. This saves teachers valuable time and allows them to focus on what they do best: teach!
The “Tools for Instruction” PDFs allow instant access for teachers to provide instructional solutions to students based on their specific needs, whether they are functioning below level, on level, or above level. Built from the Common Core, teachers can rest assured that these standards based lessons will provide the support all students need.
