The document discusses criteria for curriculum assessment. It defines criteria as standards used to assess different elements of the curriculum. Effective goals and objectives must clearly state what students will learn and reflect the skills and content in the curriculum. Goals are formulated to focus instruction, meet standards, provide the best education for students, and monitor student progress. Objectives should include content, behavior, criteria, and conditions. Overall, a good curriculum is systematically planned, reflects the needs of students and society, promotes continuity of learning, and utilizes effective learning experiences and resources to maximize student development. The document also discusses evaluating instruction and the curriculum through formative and summative approaches.

The document discusses the skills and themes needed for 21st century education. It advocates for education that leverages new technologies, better pedagogies, and recognizes different types of learners. Core subjects are important but must be taught with 21st century interdisciplinary themes like global awareness, financial literacy, civic literacy, health literacy, and environmental literacy. 21st century skills include learning and innovation skills like creativity, problem solving, communication and collaboration. They also include information and technology skills and life/career skills like social skills, productivity, leadership, and responsibility. Support systems for developing these skills include standards, assessments, curriculum/instruction, and professional development.
The document outlines the key characteristics and skills of 21st century learners across several categories:
1. Information, media, and technology skills including visual literacy, digital literacy, and global awareness.
2. Learning and innovation skills like critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, communication and collaboration.
3. Life and career skills such as flexibility, initiative, social skills, productivity, and leadership.
The skills focus on areas like accessing and evaluating information, effective communication, digital literacy, and adapting to changing environments.
Studying music develops important life and career skills outlined in the 21st century skills model, including flexibility & adaptability, initiative & self-direction, social & cross-cultural skills, productivity & accountability, and leadership & responsibility. The document discusses how success in music requires these skills, such as constantly adapting to different musical elements, self-motivated practice, learning about other cultures, collaborating to prepare for performances, and contributing to an ensemble. While a child may not want to become a professional musician, studying music cultivates valuable skills beyond just learning an instrument.

Isaac Newton was an English physicist, mathematician, mechanic and astronomer born in 1642 who made seminal contributions to classical physics and optics. He developed the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which dominated the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. Newton also invented calculus and made discoveries in optics. Despite his contributions, Newton had an unhappy childhood and solitary nature, and his lectures at Cambridge University were not widely attended during his lifetime.
Leonardo da Vinci was an Italian polymath born in 1452 who made contributions in numerous fields including art, science, and invention. Some of his most notable inventions included conceptual designs for a tank, parachute, submarine, and scissors hundreds of years before they would be realized, as well as an early design for a bicycle and inflatable boats. He is renowned as one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
Michael Faraday was an English physicist and chemist born in 1791 who is primarily known for his discovery of electromagnetic induction. He made many other important discoveries including the chemical action of electric current, diamagnetism, the effect of magnetic fields on light, and the laws of electrolysis. Faraday introduced scientific terms still used today and invented the first electric motor and transformer.
Galileo was born in Pisa, Italy in 1564 to a noble but impoverished family. From a young age, he was drawn to art and learning. He received his primary education at a nearby monastery and showed great aptitude for academics. Though his father wanted him to become a priest, Galileo had a passion for science and discovery. He went on to make important contributions in mechanics, invention, and astronomy through his development of improved telescopes and microscopic observation techniques. His astronomical observations of the moon, sun, and Jupiter's moons strengthened the heliocentric model of the solar system put forth by Copernicus.
Distance learning education has emerged as a solution to overcome barriers of physical location and time by using internet technologies to deliver course content to remotely located students. There are two main types of distance learning courses - synchronous which involve live online communication, and asynchronous which allow students to work independently at their own pace. To create a successful distance learning course, teachers must design an effective online course site, prepare course materials and activities, choose chat times for discussion, facilitate student interaction, and build a learning community through teaching, social, and cognitive presences.
The document outlines the key activities of the Odessa Association for the 2015-2016 year under the leadership of Anna Savchenko. Activities for students included Skype video conferences between Ukrainian and international students, olympiads and contests. Activities for teachers included an international conference on the global student dialogue, presentations at a TESOL conference, meetings with the head of Odessa Oblast, seminars on using technology in English lessons, and participation in summer schools. All of these activities were made possible through support from the American Diplomatic University.
Using music in the English classroom can benefit students in several ways. Music helps create a positive learning environment and allows students to focus. Direct music activities can help students understand concepts and improve creativity. Listening to certain types of music may increase brain activity and relaxation. The teacher should choose music based on the desired effect, such as inspiring students or teaching about other cultures. Identifying metaphors in song lyrics, like the example of "I Am a Rock", can help students understand this literary device.
The Uzhhorod Teacher's Association held numerous seminars, webinars, and workshops from 2001 to 2016 focused on effective teaching skills and methods. Topics included interview skills, art and culture, English grammar and writing, student engagement, career development, and international projects. Demonstration lessons and student conferences were also organized covering subjects like poetry, traditions, the environment, and summer camp activities.
Viktoriia is a teacher from Ukraine who teaches English and German to students aged 10-16. She enjoys traveling and gardening.
