The document discusses using visual aids like photographs to improve students' descriptive essay writing abilities. It identifies issues students face like lack of motivation and inability to generate ideas or describe vividly. The strategy uses real-life photos to capture students' attention and motivate them. Students are asked to come up with 2 simple descriptive sentences for each photo. This helps students generate ideas from the photos. The strategy leads to active learning and helps students overcome issues. However, photos may limit idea generation. Using multiple visual aids catering to different learning types is recommended.

Game sense approach
The document discusses the Game Sense approach to teaching physical education. It is an active, student-centered approach that allows students to develop skills like decision making through participation in games and activities. Some key benefits are that it keeps students engaged in their learning while developing fundamental movement skills. The author uses this approach in their classroom by introducing concepts through developmentally appropriate games before having students apply skills in game play. An example given is using a game called "Nukem Ball" to teach underhand and overhand throwing techniques in volleyball.
Game Sense Power Point Presentation
The document discusses the Game Sense approach for teaching physical education. Game Sense uses modified games to help students develop skills in a variety of sports. It allows students to learn skills and understandings through playing games rather than isolated drills. The approach focuses on invasion, target, court/net, and striking/fielding categories. Teachers modify rules to emphasize different skills. Game Sense is student-centered and keeps students actively engaged. It helps students comprehend skills and rules within the full context of playing games.
Pdhpe game sense
A game sense approach to teaching physical education (PE) focuses on using modified games to help students develop fundamental movement skills through cooperative learning, decision making, and problem solving rather than explicit skill instruction. This approach aligns with constructivist learning theories. In PE lessons, small designer games are used to practice specific skills with tactical feedback, games are the main learning activity, and open-ended questions guide discovery learning. A game sense approach improves student engagement through participation in enjoyable modified games tailored to their needs and abilities. It also develops important life skills like decision making, problem solving, collaboration, and social skills that are transferred to other subjects. This student-centered approach aligns well with objectives in PE syllabi to promote physical activity,

This document describes a study that evaluated a collaborative teacher training intervention to address students' fine motor skills. The study had two phases: 1) A fine motor program was provided to a whole class and small group over 8-20 weeks, which improved students' fine motor task performance. 2) A follow-up interview with the teacher 5 years later found that the practical training and collaboration with an OT was beneficial and the skills were still being used. The findings suggest collaborative teacher training can help address fine motor needs in the classroom.

Repeated practice is important for students to master new skills and become better over time.
Game sense approach
The document discusses the game sense approach to coaching and physical education. It contrasts the game sense approach, which focuses on player decision making and exploration, to the more traditional technique-focused coaching. Game sense aims to improve students' experiences in sport by giving them autonomy over their learning. It also allows for a wider range of fitness levels and can be adapted for all ages. While it improves the coaching method and student experience, game sense may lack the ability to develop elite performers and requires more planning time from teachers.

Secondary practicums final reflection
First, the author chose a combination of the PPP and communicative approaches for their secondary practicums because the students had a good level of English but were exhausted after exams. The aim was to teach grammar and vocabulary through pedagogical contexts like movies and songs rather than just explanations and practice. The students responded positively to the extracts, films, songs, games and activities. This experience gave the author a new perspective on how secondary students work - they were nice, respectful and did all the tasks well. The author felt more comfortable and relaxed, and the lessons went as planned. They now feel more secure about what they can achieve as a teacher.

10 Faulty Notions about Teaching and Learning
This document summarizes a presentation by Brent Daigle on faulty notions about teaching and learning. The presentation addresses 10 common but flawed assumptions, such as the ideas that structured teaching impedes true learning, teaching discrete skills trivializes education, and that building self-esteem should be a teacher's primary goal rather than improved achievement. Daigle argues that research supports explicit instruction, discrete skills are important to outcomes, and the primary goal should be improved achievement which leads to increased self-esteem. The presentation provides counterarguments to each faulty notion based on research findings.
Lessons Designed For Boys
The document discusses lessons designed to better engage boys in learning. It notes that boys often struggle with focus, self-esteem, and understanding expectations. Lessons should develop literacy and numeracy, relate to life experiences, use interactive techniques, and provide structure and feedback. Key recommendations include concentrating on key concepts, paying attention to literacy and numeracy, ensuring understanding of goals, and relating material to real-world examples. The document provides examples of activities to strengthen literacy, such as using word walls and writing frames, to help boys progress.

Common Core State Standard: Writing Standards Text types and Purpose
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.K.2
Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose informative/explanatory texts in which they name what they are writing about and supply some information about the topic.
Procedures (15 minute activity):
(Provide the steps of instruction or task analysis, based on an evidence-based strategy in the text or a peer-reviewed article of your choice)
Students will use a model letter to learn to write a reply letter to their friend. Who was it from? Why do we get letters? What do they say? It is essential that the IEP should address a student’s social and emotional needs as well as the student’s academic needs.
“Coaching helps a child/teen learn techniques for maintaining focus, stay on task, and improve time management and organizational skills. The development of these skills can contribute to smoother family life and improved school performance. These skills are also the building blocks
for future success” (Sleeper-Triplett, (2008), p. 1).
Reflection:
1. How did you ensure that your mini-lesson addresses the needs of the individual learners in the group?
To address the needs of each particular student, the lesson will be expended through an entire week while student will add something particular about his or her friend daily utilizing pictures and words.
2. Why did you choose the strategy you used in this mini-lesson?
Referring to each disability characteristic and student’s IEP, sufficient time is required in an effort for these students deliver their ideas either through picture or in writing.

How They Think: the True Key to Student Success
Troy Dvorak, Professor, Minneapolis College
Cognitive learning theory
Cognitive learning theory views learning as an active internal process involving how information is processed, stored, and retrieved. It focuses on how students think, process information, and apply knowledge. Key aspects include starting lessons with prior knowledge, relating new ideas to existing understanding, using visual aids, and giving students opportunities to actively problem solve. Strengths are improving problem solving and motivation, while weaknesses include difficulty measuring cognitive awareness in individual students. Cognitive classrooms emphasize comprehension, group work, vocabulary over pronunciation, and using the native language to facilitate fluency.
Developmental perspective presentation
The document discusses the developmental perspective on education and teaching. The developmental perspective focuses on helping learners construct their own understanding by building on their existing knowledge and ways of thinking. Effective teaching from this perspective means planning lessons from the learner's point of view, using challenging questions to move students from simple to complex thinking, and adapting instruction to learners' levels of understanding. The teacher's role is to facilitate learning without undermining students' independent development of knowledge and use expertise to guide students as active participants in the learning process.
Individualize And Personalize
To ensure student success, educators must create an environment where all students can learn, as all students learn differently. Interventions and programs should be implemented to address different needs. Preventing emotional crises involves giving students responsibility, treating them with warmth and respect, and conveying they are worthy of respect. Common disorders like bipolar disorder, ADHD, and depression require classroom strategies like consistent routines, opportunities for movement, organization, and breaking tasks into smaller segments.
Developmental perspective presentation
The document discusses the developmental perspective on education and teaching. The developmental perspective focuses on helping learners construct their own understanding through meaningful examples and challenging questions. Effective teaching from this perspective requires planning instruction from the learner's point of view and adapting teaching methods to learners' ways of understanding. The goal is to develop increasingly complex problem solving skills in a content area by building on what learners already know or helping them change their current understanding.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

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

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Improving Pupils’ Descriptive Essay Using Visual Aids
- 1. Creative Project: Improving Students’ Descriptive Essay Using Visual Aids Date: 9 Dec 2017 Submit to: Dr Maslawati Mohamad Name: Lee Yan Di GP05989 yandi91@gmail.com GGGE 6313 Psycholinguistics and Language Teaching
- 2. Major Issues Issues identified among pupils Lacking in motivation Inability to generate ideas Inability to describe vividly
- 3. Strategy Lack of motivation – The need for interesting set induction. It is observed that the pupils’ enthusiasim is high and thus feeling more motivated in writing and the more motivated a student, the higher the likelihood of their efforts for success (Beeland 1992). Using real life photographs to capture pupils’ attention It is observed that pupils showed a higher enthusiasm level and is more motivated
- 4. Pupils were told that they could mention anything they can see in the pictures and come out with 2 simple descriptive sentences that describes the picture . Strategy Inability to generate ideas – Real life photographs serves as inspiration. Assimilation and accommodation require an active learner, not a passive one, because problem-solving skills cannot be taught, they must be discovered.(Piaget 1948) Pupils are able to come out with 2 simple descriptive sentences.
- 9. General Clothing (Men & Women)
- 12. Entertainme nt
- 14. Strengths Active learners Imaginative Lessons are easy to conduct
- 15. Weaknesses Photographs dictate the type of ideas that will be generated by the pupils Over enthusiastic learners.
- 16. Recommendations Take pupils’ learning type into account. Use multiple visual aid (videos, charts, diagrams..)
- 17. Thank you
