Solving problems is a practical art, like swimming, or skiing, or playing the piano: you can learn it only by imitation and practice. . . . if you wish to learn swimming you have to go in the water, and if you wish to become a problem solver you have to solve problems.

Game based learning in Primary math classroomsapfpptshare
Game-based learning is, in short, learning through games. If you take a “game and a concept”, combine the two and you have a game based learning. This can be online (video games) or offline. We are discussing offline games in our session.
Constructivist approach of learning mathematics thiyaguThiyagu K
Constructivist theories are about 'how one comes to know'. Today’s constructing knowledge is tomorrows prior knowledge to construct another knowledge i.e. learners constructing knowledge are provisional. There are five basic tenets (previous knowledge, communicating language, active participation, accepted views and knowledge construction) in implication in constructivist learning. Constructivist teaching approach is the challenging one to teaching mathematics. No particular constructivist teaching approach is available to teach mathematics, here I have discussed some methods like interactive teaching approach, problem centred teaching approach may be the best approach in constructivism theory and the role of teacher is some different than other theory.

As teachers we have roles identified by the different established organizations, edicts and philosophies that would serve as our Bible in this noble profession. These are the RA 7836, ILO, Code of Conduct and the UNESCO.
As teachers it is very important that we have a clearly defined and articulated educational philosophy that would serve as our guide in our entire professional career as Mentors.

Trilogy Model Of Knowledge Creation Cebrian,MethusaelMethusael Cebrian
This is a knowledge creation model i propose which is entirely built around the classroom learning. The model was based on the SECI, OODA, and Kukkonen Models that are specifically designed for transforming a working organization into a learning organization. With the school, which is primarily a learning organization, some processes in the SECI and other models are no longer applicable. Thus, a dedicated knowledge creation model for classroom must be created.
This is an example of the 21st century curriculum design. A curriculum that is a higher order intellectual quality tasks, a curriculum that makes use of the social environment as the tool for learning and the learners develop the social regard and concern and develop action and solve problems in the community.
This Curriculum Design is an example of what a 21st Century Curriculum Design should be. The type of Curriculum (called Lesson Plan in the past) that is a Higher Order Intellectual Quality in nature. An Authentic Task that is also assessed using Authentic Assessment.
This copy from the DepEd is the same copy available on the Expereincial Learning Book developed by the DepEd in collaboration with the Academe and other experts all over the country.
This worksheet will enable teachers to self assess in order to remain relevant and in line with the goal of transforming education into the 21st cenury. This worksheet was developed by the DepEd. I am making it available in my site with the sole goal of spreading information to the farthest corners of the nation.
This is the National Competency Based Teachers Standard or NCBTS developed by the Academic Community, and other concerned government agencies to transform teaching into 21st century standards and the teachers as a globally competent individuals.
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.
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.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. Strategies to be discussed are:
Lecture-Discussion Method
Cooperative and Collaborative learning
Jigsaw Method
Think-Pair-Share
3. Lecture-Discussion Method
It is based on three sources which makes it an
effective tool to teaching:
Schemata Theory- It uses what students already
know by building on their existing background.
Meaningful Verbal Learning-Presents information in
a systematic way.
Active Learner Involvement- Uses teacher
questioning to involve students actively in the
learning process.
4. Application of Lecture Discussion
Method
Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction/Learning:
Instructional Event
1.Gain attention.
2.Inform learners of objectives.
3.Stimulate recall of prior learning.
4.Present the content.
Internal Mental Process
•Stimuli activates receptors.
•Creates level of expectation for
learning.
•Retrieval and activation of short-
term memory.
•Selective perception of content.
5. 5.Provide "learning guidance"
6.Elicit performance (practice)
7.Provide feedback
8.Assess performance
9.Enhance retention
•Semantic encoding for storage
long-term memory.
•Responds to questions to
enhance encoding and
verification.
•Reinforcement and assessment
of correct performance.
•Retrieval and reinforcement of
content as final evaluation.
•Retrieval and generalization of
learned skill to new situation.
6. Cooperative and Collaborative
Learning
Collaborative learning is a method of teaching and
learning in which students team together to explore a
significant question or create a meaningful
Knowledge.
Cooperative learning is a specific kind of collaborative
learning where students work together in small
groups on a structured activity. They are individually
accountable for their work, and the work of the group
as a whole is also assessed. Cooperative groups work
face-to-face and learn to work as a team.
7. Why cooperative and collaborative
learning?
Paradigm shift of education CALLS for the
departure from the traditional teaching methods
which are primarily Teacher Centered into a
Student-Centered Learning Environment.
8. Model for cooperative and
collaborative Learning
There are plenty of models for cooperative and
collaborative teaching strategies such as JIGSAW
PUZZLE and THINK-PAIR SHARE which will be
discussed later on…
We will be focusing on the knowledge creation
process developed by takeuchi Nonaka, which is
called SECI MODEL/ Nonaka’s Model.
9. The knowledge spiral or SECI model theorized
by Nonaka gave emphasis on the following:
Socialization
Externalization
Combination
Internalization
10. What is the feature of each integrated process?
Socialization-involves the sharing of knowledge
between individuals.
Externalization- this requires the expression of tacit
knowledge and its translation into comprehensible
forms that can be understood by others.
Combination-involves the conversion of explicit
knowledge into more complex sets of explicit
knowledge. This is fitting the elements of knowledge
together.
Internalization-where newly created knowledge is
converted from explicit knowledge into the
organization’s tacit knowledge.
11. How does nonaka’s spiral model described the
model integration?
According to nonaka, knowledge creation is a spiraling
process of interactions between explicit and tacit
knowledge. The interactions between these kinds of
knowledge lead to the creation of new knowledge.
The SECI model combines the two categories (tacit and
explicit) to make it possible to conceptualize its four
conversion patterns.
12. Tacit knowledge is highly
personal and hard to formalize.
Subjective insight, intuitions,
and hunches are examples of
tacit knowledge.
Explicit knowledge are the ones
that are learned in the school.
These knowledge are created thru
classroom session, on the job
training and field trip trips.
13. Example:
Learning activity Model of Nonaka
Students will form a team with 5 members, and they will discuss the
Special Products and Factoring as a preparation for the problem to be
posted by the teacher on the board which the group will have to solve.
Socialization
The teacher will then post a problem on the board and the students
will solve and form a consensus on the solution they will make and
present it during the group presentation.
Externalization
The agreed solution of the entire group will then be written on the
paper, this will be the solution that they will present to the class later
on.
Combination
Aside from the group solution, each student will be required to submit
their individual solution to the problem written in a piece of paper.
Internalization
14. Jigsaw Method
The Jigsaw method is a cooperative learning technique
in which students work in small groups. Jigsaw can be
used in a variety of ways for a variety of goals, but it
is primarily used for the acquisition and presentation
of new material, review, or informed debate.
In this method, each group member is assigned to
become an "expert" on some aspect of a unit of study.
After reading about their area of expertise, the experts
from different groups meet to discuss their topic, and
then return to their groups and take turns teaching
their topics to their group mates.
15. This Strategy allows for:
An efficient way to learn content.
Development of listening, engagement, and
empathy skills.
A way for students to work independently.
Interaction among all students.
16. Classroom application of the Jigsaw Puzzle
Model.
EDUCATIONAL GOAL:
The students will be able to solve 2 problems that would require
them to find the mean, median, mode and range of range from the
given data.
Learning Objective:
To be able to solve 2 problems that would require them to find the
mean, median, mode and range from the given data.
17. Divide students into 5- or 6-person jigsaw groups. The groups
should be diverse in terms of gender, ethnicity, race, and ability.
Appoint one student from each group as the leader. Initially, this
person should be the most mature student in the group.
Divide the lesson into 4 segments. (1) Solving for the mean from
grouped, ungrouped data (2) solving for median from the given
grouped, ungrouped data (3) solving for the mode of the given
grouped, ungrouped data (4) finding the range of the given data.
Assign each student to learn one segment, making sure students
have direct access only to their own segment.
Give students time to read over their segment at least twice and
become familiar with it. There is no need for them to memorize it.
18. Form temporary "expert groups" by having one student from each
jigsaw group join other students assigned to the same segment.
Give students in these expert groups time to discuss the main
points of their segment and to rehearse the presentations they will
make to their jigsaw group.
Bring the students back into their jigsaw groups.
Ask each student to present her or his segment to the group.
Encourage others in the group to ask questions for clarification.
Float from group to group, observing the process. If any group is
having trouble (e.g., a member is dominating or disruptive), make
an appropriate intervention. Eventually, it's best for the group
leader to handle this task. Leaders can be trained by whispering an
instruction on how to intervene, until the leader gets the hang of it.
At the end of the session, give a quiz on the material so that
students quickly come to realize that these sessions are not just
fun and games but really count.
19. Think-Pair-Share
It is a cooperative discussion strategy developed by
Frank Lyman and his colleagues in Maryland. It gets
its name from the three stages of student action, with
emphasis on what students are to be DOING at each
of those stages
20. How Does It Work?
1) Think. The teacher provokes students' thinking with a
question or prompt or observation. The students should take a
few moments (probably not minutes) just to THINK about the
question.
2) Pair. Using designated partners, nearby neighbors, or a desk
mate, students PAIR up to talk about the answer each came up
with. They compare their mental or written notes and identify the
answers they think are best, most convincing, or most unique.
3) Share. After students talk in pairs for a few moments, the
teacher calls for pairs to SHARE their thinking with the rest of the
class. The can do this by going around in round-robin fashion,
calling on each pair; or the can take answers as they are called
out (or as hands are raised). Often, the teacher or a designated
helper will record these responses on the board or on the
overhead.
21. Example:
Learning Task:
The teacher will provide a worded problem involving an area.
Think:
The teacher will allow the students to individually solve the
problem first.
Pair:
After 5 minutes, the teacher will ask the students to find a
partner, and discuss their solutions to each other. They should
come up with a single solution for the given problem. While
partners are discussing their solutions, the teacher will roam
around to see which partnered students were able to make it
correctly and which are not.
Share:
The teacher will randomly select a partner to share their
solutions to the class by explaining it in front and solving it
using the blackboard.
