For the Final Paper, you will demonstrate an understanding of the .docxAKHIL969626
For the Final Paper, you will demonstrate an understanding of the complex set of issues that must be considered as you embark on your professional preparation to become a classroom teacher. The best way to do this is to conduct an interview of an educator to get a realistic perspective of the teaching profession. It is hoped that after the interview, you will have a better understanding of the daily work a teacher does and how the teaching philosophies and learning theories guide the teacher in making classroom decisions. In addition, you will then have an opportunity to reflect on your own “goodness of fit” as a future educator.
Please be courteous of the teachers you are interviewing. Plan ahead and schedule your interviews early. It can be difficult to secure an interview date with the teacher. Writing or emailing a thank-you note to the teacher you interviewed is good professional practice. (I already done the interview for you)Requirements: You will interview one teacher at the elementary level (K-5) or secondary level (6-12) depending on where your own teaching interests lie. Please ask your teacher the following questions and record their responses: Mrs. Jones is a 3rd teacher at Solomon Elementary
Why did you decide to become a teacher? What was your motivation and what attributes do you think are important for a teacher to exhibit to be effective? (Attributes/Motivation) I became a teacher because I enjoy working with kids and seeing them make learning connections. In college I had developed and taught my own preK summer program. Once out of school, I worked at a child development center, teaching preK as well as working with the school age program. I found that I really enjoyed working with school age children. So I began working with Red Cross youth programs as well as Boy and Girl Scouts. I went back to school and completed a Master of Arts in Teaching program. I think a teacher needs to be someone who wants to help children become successful citizens. They need to be able to communicate to both children and adults. A teacher also needs to be someone willing to collaborate with others sharing ideas to help all students succeed. They need to be willing to learn and grow.
· What is your philosophy of education? What is the role of the teacher and the students? (Teaching Philosophy) I believe that every child can learn and should be given the opportunity. The teacher should present the concepts and instruction in a way students can understand. The material should be challenging and should get students excited. I believe that students should be given the opportunity to learn in a variety of ways. Students need to come to school ready to learn. It is very frustrating to work with students who refuse to try.
· What are your learning goals for your students? How do you effectively meet their needs? (Learning Theory) My learning goals for my students are ideally to meet academic success and be proficient in ...

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
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.
11. Good Morning…
My name is Jay Gross. I am here today to talk to you about Communicating with today’s students through
technology. Let us take a moment and define communication. Dictionary.com defines communication as:
the act or process of communicating; fact of being communicated.
the imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs.
something imparted, interchanged, or transmitted.
a document or message imparting news, views, information, etc.

My Purpose today is give you some new ideas on how to exchange ideas with students.
I also want you to take a chance and step outside your comfort zones.
If there is time, I would like to tell you some stories.
So let us now talk about technology. Dictionary.com defines technology as:

with life, society, and the environment, drawing upon such subjects as industrial arts, engineering, applied
science, and pure science.
the terminology of an art, science, etc.; technical nomenclature.
a scientific or industrial process, invention, method, or the like.
