This document outlines a final project for an Earth science lesson on rocks and minerals for 6th-8th grade students. The project uses constructive, authentic, and cooperative learning elements. Students will learn to identify and classify rocks and minerals by examining specimens in groups. They will discuss the differences and draw pictures of each. The teacher will use observations, short tests, and drawing assessments to evaluate learning. Students will use textbooks, specimens, microscopes, and online resources to reinforce their understanding of the key differences between minerals and rocks.
The purpose of this study is to explain the benefits of integrating Sangiran Purba’s Human Site Museum and Project-based Learning in The-Earth Material in Science. Twenty-eight seventh grade Junior High School students in Karanganyar, Central Java follow this course in the second semester in the academic year of 2016/2017. The students work in teams to do the project based on their observation and analysis on the phenomena in Sangiran. The researchers use a mixed method research approach to analyze this research by using questionnaire and interview to obtain data on students’ responses to the course. The conclusions of our study are: 1) this course is successful in developing of research skills, teamwork and group discussions; 2) students are not accustomed to learn independently and to learn by using scientific approach; 3) students faces difficulties in making project report and in doing presentation. 4) Project-based-learning can be used as a media to help the students to know about local wisdom in their motherland.

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.
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.

SPRING, 2012 By TRANG NGUYEN
2. Title:
Earth science
6-8th Grade
Summary:
The students are able to identify
and classify minerals and rocks.
3. Primary Core Objectives
The students learn that minerals are
different from rocks.
The students compare minerals and rock.
4. Primary Core Objectives
The students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop
innovative products and processes using technology. The students use models
and simulations to explore complex systems and issues.
The students apply digital tools to gather, evaluate, and use information. The
students evaluate and select information sources and digital tools based on the
appropriateness to specific tasks and then students process data and report
results related to the lesson.
The students use digital media and environments to communicate and work
collaboratively to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of
others. The students contribute to project teams to produce original works or
solve problems.
The students apply digital tools to gather, evaluate, and use information.
5. Learning Outcomes
The students can select from given information (identify) and
assign to categories (classify):
- Naturally occurring, solid chemical compounds, that have a
crystalline structure and properties that include
luster, streak, fracture, cleavage, hardness, color, magnetism
and reactivity to acid (minerals)
- Naturally occurring materials composed of a mineral mixture
formed by sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic processes
(rocks).
6. The meaningful learning in the project
This project has three of the following meaningful learning
elements: constructive, authentic, and cooperative.
CONSTRUCTIVE
The students discuss and speak about what they have
accomplished in identification and classification of minerals and
rocks and reflect on it based on their observations and
observations of others. By reflecting on the puzzling
experiences, the students integrate their new experiences with
their prior knowledge about the geology.
7. The meaningful learning in the project
AUTHENTIC
In this lesson, the teacher will explain the different between
minerals and rocks and the connection between minerals and
rocks. The students review the characteristics of rocks and
minerals and they will find identification becomes easier with
practice. Everything in physics occurs in the real world.
Learning is more meaningful when tasks and situations are
based in real-world context. In this lesson, learning would be
embedded in real life.
8. The meaningful learning in the project
COOPERATIVE
The students work together to build knowledge and
learning, using each other’s skills and appropriating each
other’s knowledge in order to solve problems and perform
tasks. In this lesson, the students will be divided 4-5 groups.
Give each group of students a bag of minerals and rocks, the
teacher will instruct the students to group the specimens into
the 3 piles: rocks, minerals and specimens that the students
cannot tell classify. Conversation between learners would be
encourage as it is the most natural way of making meaning.
9. What learners will complete for the project?
The students will learned the
characteristics of rocks and minerals.
The students will find identification
becomes easier with practice by examining
the specimens of rocks and minerals. As
they discuss the differences, have the
students copy down the information.
Make sure students are aware that some
of the differences are hard to distinguish.
When they are finished, have them draw a
picture of a mineral and of a rock.
10. Materials Used by the Teacher

12. Technologies Used by the Teacher
Computer for online.
Provide a few online sites that
students would use for deeply
understand the lesson.
13. Technologies Used by the Students
Students can use the technology themselves to reinforce their
knowledge about rocks and minerals. The students’ activity is to
explore the following sites:

15. Assessment Plan
-The teacher observes during the students
group the specimens to recognize who is
understood.
-When the students examine the
specimens, the teacher stop and ask the
students if the specimens fit the
characteristics of rocks or minerals.
-The teacher grades the students when they
draw a picture of a mineral and of a rock.
16. Assessment Plan
Give the students a short test.
The question is:
Can you identify and classify rocks and
minerals?
The answer is:
Minerals: Naturally occurring, solid chemical
compounds, that have a crystalline structure and
properties that include
luster, streak, fracture, cleavage, hardness, color,
magnetism and reactivity to acid).
Rocks: Naturally occurring materials composed
of a mineral mixture formed by
sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic
processes).
