This document discusses using a KWHL chart as a pre-assessment tool to determine students' background knowledge and interests on a topic before beginning an activity. The KWHL chart has students fill out what they already Know, Want to find out, How they can learn it, and eventually What they Learned. Using this chart ignites discussion as students share their knowledge and becomes motivated to learn more. It also provides insight on what skills students may use and develop during the learning process.

High school preparation for pursuing psychology
This document provides tips for maintaining good grades in high school such as attending class, completing homework early, studying effectively for tests, and seeking help when needed. It also recommends joining the American Psychological Association for career resources and publications. Students are advised to research career paths in psychology to prepare and consider taking a free career assessment. The document emphasizes that college provides opportunities for personal and professional growth while working to help others in one's community.
Why take notes
The document discusses different methods for taking effective notes, including the Cornell method, outlining method, charting method, and mapping method. It emphasizes that note taking helps students remember class material and can aid in assignments and test preparation. The document also notes that a significant percentage of information will be forgotten if not written down, and provides tips for before, during, and after taking notes, such as leaving space for additions, jotting down keywords, and reviewing notes soon after class. Effective note making involves identifying main ideas and supporting details, and can be improved by students revising their own notes.
Class session 11 putting it all together
The document provides an agenda for a meeting that includes:
1) Discussing highlights from assigned textbook readings on student development, learning climate, and becoming self-directed learners.
2) Identifying competencies learners need for self-directed learning and which can be taught or selected in hiring.
3) Debating whether self-directed learning is innate or can be taught, and how it can be taught.
4) Reviewing models of readiness to learn and developing their own model for different learner levels in their setting.
5) Discussing what they know about adult learning principles.
Senior seminar presentation
This presentation discusses ways of knowing (WoK) using two examples from the presenter's experience. The first example is about the presenter's negative emotions towards math tests due to disliking how questions are structured. This shows how emotions can interfere with learning. The second example discusses the presenter's goal of becoming an engineer in the future, showing how having reasons and goals stimulates learning. The presentation concludes that having positive emotions and setting future goals can help the presenter become a better student and person by providing reasons to work hard and learn.

Metacognitive and self regulation grid
This document discusses metacognitive and self-regulation strategies for students including planning, monitoring, and evaluating. For planning, it recommends having students answer questions about the task and identify potential mistakes or strategies before starting. For monitoring, it suggests using metacognitive talk where students think out loud and pause during tasks to check their progress. For evaluating, it proposes having students compare their work to examples and reflect on their thinking in journals or with feedback focusing on metacognition.
Study Skills
This document discusses effective study skills. It begins by noting that effective study skills involve more than just understanding course material. It then outlines some general study techniques, including creating a schedule, finding an appropriate place and time to study, developing strong thinking skills like asking questions while reading, taking detailed notes, and extracting important details from readings. The document provides tips for each of these strategies and emphasizes the importance of being willing to improve one's study habits in order to succeed academically.
The 7 Stage Brain Based Learning Lesson Planning
The document outlines a 7-stage lesson planning framework based on brain-based learning principles. The 7 stages are: 1) Pre-Exposure, 2) Preparation, 3) Initiation and Acquisition, 4) Elaboration, 5) Incubation and Memory Encoding, 6) Verification and Confidence Check, and 7) Celebration and Integration. Each stage focuses on different cognitive processes and includes example strategies and activities to engage learners at that stage, such as providing previews, hands-on experiences, reflection time, assessments, and celebrations. The overall framework is meant to guide lesson planning in a way that supports how the brain naturally learns by incorporating different stages of cognitive processing.

T&L Questioning
Questioning is a critical skill for teachers as it is the primary method of interaction, assessment of learning, and providing appropriate challenges. Effective questioning reinforces learning objectives, involves all pupils, and engages pupils in higher-order thinking like justification and reasoning. It is easy for teachers to fall into pitfalls like an overreliance on closed questions, not giving pupils time to think, and not involving the whole class. Teachers should evaluate their own questioning techniques using recordings and focus on balancing open and closed questions as well as handling incorrect answers effectively.

Research Literacy: Literacy Research
The document discusses moving away from an Accelerated Reader program for literacy research due to mixed evidence of its effectiveness, too many variables in implementation, and lack of progress for some students given the resources. It will instead adopt a Thinking Reading program which teaches reading skills directly rather than just encouraging reading, can accurately track student progress and evaluate the program, and has shown promising evidence even if limited as an individualized approach.
Spiral of inquiry Ruth
This document outlines the stages of the Spiral of Inquiry process that a teacher went through to address low math achievement in their class. It began with developing a hunch about students' poor number sense and math confidence. The teacher checked assumptions through testing and observations, and learned from research about assessment practices and math teaching strategies. They focused on building number knowledge, fractions concepts, and a growth mindset. Monitoring showed improved attitudes and some knowledge gains, but one student may need dyscalculia support. The teacher plans to use more explicit success criteria and differentiated planning to further support students.
High Expectations
The document discusses setting high expectations in the classroom. It outlines that students will often rise or fall to the expectations set for them, as shown in the Rosenthal-Jacobson study where classes labeled as "more able" performed significantly better despite having the same initial abilities. The document then provides examples of high expectations, such as completing homework on time and seeking help rather than accepting failure. Finally, it summarizes five ideas from "Teach Like a Champion" for raising expectations, such as not allowing students to opt-out of answering questions and only accepting fully correct answers.

Erma's presentation
The author analyzed journal entries from course activities and identified the theme of "Gaps in my Learning." The approach used to derive this theme involved categorizing sentences by color coding and sorting them into piles based on similarity of meaning. This allowed the author to arrive at a broader theme. In examining this theme using literature, the author identified several gaps, including a lack of focus, prerequisite knowledge, and skills. To address these gaps, the author plans to pay more attention, seek assistance from others, and develop new skills and strategies to improve performance as a reflective practitioner.

Promoting a growth mind set classroom ppt v2 (1)
This document provides strategies for promoting a growth mindset in the classroom. It discusses Carol Dweck's research showing that effort, not innate ability, is most important for success. Teachers should set high expectations for all students and encourage challenges, mistakes, effort, and perseverance. Formative feedback is important so students understand how to improve. Both students and teachers should be encouraged to adopt a growth mindset, accepting challenges and seeing intelligence as malleable rather than fixed. Teachers must be mindful of their own fixed mindsets and work to develop a growth-oriented approach.
Promoting a growth mind set classroom
Promoting a growth mindset in the classroom requires:
1. Having high expectations for all students and believing they can reach their full potential with effort. Teachers must provide appropriate challenges and encourage students to take risks.
2. Introducing students to the concept of a malleable brain and intelligence that can grow with effort over time. Students should be praised for their effort rather than their innate ability.
3. Actively encouraging mistakes as part of the learning process and creating a safe environment where students are not afraid to make mistakes or admit confusion.
Questioning canons 14th nov 2018 ba
This document discusses effective questioning techniques for teachers. It makes several key points:
- Teachers ask over 400 questions per day on average to engage students and assess learning. However, many teachers only wait 0.9 seconds for a response, which is not enough time for deep thinking.
- Questions should promote higher-order thinking like speculation, imagination and creative thinking. Teachers must plan questions in advance and consider how to target different students.
- Common questioning frameworks discussed include the "5Ws and H" to gather basic facts, DEAL for science to describe, explain, analyze and link concepts, and adding "In What Way Might" to take questions to a higher level of thinking.
- Sufficient thinking

Clinical Field Experience B Humanities Instructional and Engageme
Clinical Field Experience B: Humanities Instructional and Engagement Strategies 2
I picked Ms. Dawn’s class at Children’s of America in Fredericksburg Virginia, for this week's field excursion. Unbeknownst to me, parent teacher conferences were held last week, providing me with a wealth of experience listening to/observing parent participation and cooperation with their kid and their child's instructor. Despite the fact that I was not permitted to speak to the parents on Ms. Dawn's behalf, I was given the chance to assist Ms. Dawn in planning the meeting and conducting two of the sessions. Apart from that, I was given the bulk of my time in the classroom to engage and interact with the kids, which frequently needed me to utilize my own personal group problem-solving abilities to keep the students on task and focused on the activities at hand. This was a fantastic opportunity for me to meet with the parents and families of Ms. Dawn's remarkable children as well as watch, practice, and reinforce my own problem-solving abilities.
I've always known that leadership and collaboration are critical in any classroom, but I had to take a step back and evaluate just how difficult it is to manage all of the responsibilities that come with being an educator, particularly leadership, social skills, and collaborative practices. Ms. Paddock was able to provide me with a great deal of guidance as I prepare to teach my own class and work with my own students and families. "Your students' parents will (ideally) be their child's number one fan," Ms. Dawn said, "and as an educator, you ought to be their number one fan as well." Make use of this common ground to tell parents how important their child's success is to you as their educator; parents will appreciate it, and kids will become more interested!"
Educators are aware of how kids develop and flourish. They understand that learning and development processes differ from person to person and across cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, and physical domains. To accommodate these variances, instructors must be able to create and administer developmentally appropriate and demanding learning experiences that are adaptable. The educator meets students where they are, which means they begin with what the student already understands, then they provide guidance and ongoing support as needed. This will change depending on the issue. When introducing new topics, scaffolding is beneficial. The educator scaffolds information and/or assignments based on the student's specific requirements. Educators evaluate individual and group performance on a regular basis in order to plan and alter education to fulfill students' requirements in each area of development (cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, and physical), as well as scaffold instruction for the next level of growth. The strategy involved when interacting with the students started with first understanding their needs and secondly addressing ...

Pre assessment
- 1. Pre-assessment Before starting off an activity, it is useful to get an idea of the students' background knowledge and interests. KWHL is one of the most effective examples of authentic assessment that you can use in your classroom as a diagnostic tool. Ask the students to fill in the following chart, either individually or as a whole class. K W H L What do I know? What do I want to find out? How can I find out what I want to learn? What did I learn? Skills I expect to use: This typically ignites an active discussion, as students enjoy displaying their knowledge. Not only does this activity present a picture of the students' background knowledge, but it also motivates curiosity and enthusiasm about the topic they are about to learn. This tool will also provide information on the skills that the students might use and develop throughout the learning process. If there are misconceptions, it is a good opportunity to address and correct them.
