Daniel Northup hosts a quiz show with contestants answering questions on game pods. Contestants are penalized for slow answers and scores are displayed on a monitor. The first round involves multiple choice, true/false, and matching questions about science, celebrities, time, and measuring devices. Contestants' scores are shown at the end of the round.
The document provides instructions for a social action project where students will create a digital poster (glog) promoting awareness for one of the UN's eight Millennium Development Goals. It outlines the requirements for the project, which include identifying an issue and goals for a campaign, educating an audience, and calling others to action to support the cause. Students are given several work days to research their topic, create a draft of their glog, and incorporate written descriptions, images, and a video.
This document provides a curriculum planning template for a thematic unit on social action projects. It includes three assessments with increasing levels of complexity:
1. Students discuss social action project ideas and provide feedback on each other's ideas.
2. Students analyze a short video about poverty and complete a listening comprehension assessment.
3. Students create a public service announcement promoting their own proposed social action project using an online presentation tool.
The template provides information on communication modes, performance assessments, language skills standards, and target proficiency levels for each assessment.
Foreign Language Week will celebrate Spanish-speaking countries through foods, dances, music and other activities. Students will research and prepare items from countries like Spain, Mexico, Puerto Rico and Cuba to share during the event. They will sign up to lead activities on specific days, such as preparing authentic foods from a country for Food Day, teaching classmates a traditional dance from their assigned country on Dance Day, or presenting a children's song in Spanish on Song Day. All work must be approved by the teacher ahead of time.
This document provides a curriculum planning template for a thematic unit on environmental issues and solutions. It includes three targeted performance assessments at different proficiency levels:
1. At the beginning level, students will talk in small groups about environmental issues and ways to positively impact the environment.
2. At the developing level, students will listen to a video about conservation efforts in Costa Rica and read authentic texts summarizing environmental issues.
3. At the transitioning/refining level, students will choose an environmental issue to present, describing the problem, impacts, potential consequences, and solutions.
The template links the performance assessments to communication modes, language standards, target performance elements, culture standards, vocabulary and structures to
Implementing curriculum changes requires consideration of stakeholders like teachers, parents, and students. It is a process that takes 3-5 years if done properly with planning, revision, and patience. A proposed change would teach each student one musical instrument by 8th grade to provide a well-rounded education, but it must gain support from focus groups of parents and teachers by addressing their questions first.
This curriculum unit focuses on the theme of friends and peers. Students will work on identifying people from physical descriptions, completing a survey about their best friend, and presenting descriptions of two of their friends. The performance assessments target beginning, developing, and transitioning proficiency levels in interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational communication. Students will learn vocabulary for physical and personality attributes and structures like the present tense of ser and tener to be successful. The unit connects to standards about beliefs and attitudes towards friendships, popular media, and comparing language structures and cultural characteristics.
Junior Achievement Bulgaria's 2011 annual report highlights the organization's achievements in inspiring young minds. In 2011, JA Bulgaria:
1) Reached over 31,000 students through its entrepreneurship education programs in 579 schools and universities, taught by 617 teachers.
2) Received international recognition with the Model Organization Award from JA-YE Europe for the fourth consecutive year for program quality.
3) Trained 300 new teachers to deliver JA's elementary school programs, expanding access to entrepreneurship education.
The document provides instructions for students to create and comment on a VoiceThread project in Spanish. It outlines how to log in to VoiceThread, upload photos or URLs, leave voice comments by selecting the record button, and save and share the completed project. It also describes how to delete recordings, view classmates' projects, and leave at least two voice and two text comments on others' projects in Spanish.
This document summarizes a presentation on creativity in business. It defines creativity as the ability to bring something new into existence through a process that is novel, useful, and understandable. The creative process involves preparation, incubation, illumination, and verification. Characteristics of creative individuals include openness to experience, curiosity, independence, willingness to take risks, and persistence. Six things that can kill creativity are evaluation, surveillance, rewards, competition, restricted choices, and extrinsic orientation. The presentation encourages training, intrinsic motivation, allowing for failure, open communication, autonomy, flexibility, and reducing rules to foster creativity.
The document lists various Web 2.0 tools categorized into groups such as course management systems, wikis, free websites, social networking sites, videoconferencing, messaging, blogging, media creation tools, surveys, and more. Each tool is listed along with its website URL and potential uses for education. The tools could help teachers explore options for incorporating technology into their classrooms.
Instructional and public technology powerpointtlgmckinney
Instructional and Public Technology involves educators and students in new ways. Educators strive to manifest true learning in students. Instructional design is a systematic approach to evaluating student needs, designing instructional material, and evaluating how material is taught. The ADDIE model of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation is a main instructional design model used by educators. Communication is key to a healthy learning environment. Under the Texas Public Information Act, certain information about public school employees is available through public information requests.
