3P: works with others to adapt and modify instruction to meet individual student needs.
4P: modifies the learning environment (including the schedule and physical arrangement) to facilitate appropriate behaviors and learning for students with diverse learning characteristics.
Performance Activity 21: Discuss with cooperating teacher management strategies used with a student who needs more management assistance in assuming responsibility, working independently or collaboratively, or even using technology. If there are no such students, ask the teacher what strategies he/she has used in some specific situations when such a student has been in their class.
Performance activity 21 addresses to IPTS 4P by discussing with Mrs. Corcoran how to

I will teach my lesson to four students, most to all, who need visual aids during classroom instruction. My lesson will provide visual aids such as: Origo math lesson, manipulatives analog clock, digital online clock, and formative worksheet to provide the most student learning during instruction. If I did not plan to have visual aids, student learning will not be authentic to their learning and may not gain new learning knowledge. Mrs. Corcoran suggested me to use analog manipulative clocks for both the students and I to use during instruction to enhance their understanding of time. Student learning is impact if I provide analog manipulative clocks by how students will absorb the make connections from their prior knowledge to working knowledge. The students, I work with, need manipulatives to make connections to enhance their learning and reach the learning phase, generalization. I asked Mrs. Corcoran what the practice activity should include and she suggested I allow the students to complete some of the step- up Origo with a partner to complete the problems together to increase their learning by providing cooperative partner work and to help their peers. In my opinion, I believe helping and teaching another person a concept, ideal, segment, etc. it increase their learning and understanding if they fully generalized the concept, segment, etc. Practice activity will include partner work to allow other peers to help each other and will impact how they work well with other and if students understand the
Having a well thought-out comprehensive behavior management plan, and well- designed lesson plans, which addresses the various learning styles of the students in the class and gets all the students engaged in the learning activity.
My sixteen week class in English 111. I was really nervous about this class. Because English has never been my strong point. This class has hard, but fun all at the same time. I learn a lot from this class. Meanwhile,the first day of class you handed a paper with a question on it. “The first thing I want to say to you who are students is that you must not think of being here to receive an education; instead, you will do much better to think of being here to claim one.” Even though putting my all in what I have learned, claiming my education with hard work because using the skills of the meal plan, as we write to different audiences and learning to be a Critically thinker as I start becoming a critically-Literate Citizenship.
In my Teaching Professions with Field Experience class, we were to create two lesson plans throughout the semester; one that involved the use of technology and the other without. The rules that went along with the lesson plans were as follows: the speaker is supposed to act out the lesson that they have prepared and their classmates were supposed to act accordingly to what grade level the lesson pertained to. Lastly, during the presentations, the students were to write three good qualities the speaker or the presentation had. In addition, they had to write one wish which was something a student thinks would make the lesson better. For the first project lesson I constructed, I incorporated the use of technology to discuss the identification and use of monochromatic colors for the sixth grade level.
Both lesson plan days include think-pair-share strategies, which permits students to engage with a partner using age-appropriate literacy skills and eventually with the whole class. The students are also given multiple times throughout the lesson to engage as well. By using KWL charts students are also able to share their own experiences with the class and this permits the students to contribute their own individual insights.
Increased or early exposure to courses that a student may not take normally at a specific level is an excellent tool for learning when they are paired with an upper level student. There are excellent benefits to all the participating parties being that the upper level students gain extra knowledge and expertise in the subject which they are assisting their lower level partners with by immediately applying the knowledge they just learned in class. The same is to be said in a primary school where students spend most of the day together if they are in a split classroom. Students in the class will be able to assist others in their strong subjects and be helped in their weak subjects. By giving the students the ability to teach and be exposed to advanced material, the education system could be made stronger for the future.
...ualized plan due to time constraints, it is reasonable to treat each student as they do have an individualized education. Teachers should know their students well enough to individualize the classroom activities so all students have strengths in each lesson. Through collaborative efforts, teachers can gain knowledge about the students and new ways to teach according to different learning styles. Working together, each student can receive an individualized education where their full potential is used.
First, it is important for both students and instructors to be aware of their proper roles
...getting to inform the audience that they would be videoed. The helpers are proactive as they took the initiative to give assist to the audience which shows the enthusiasm and motivation in completing the task. With the used of the simple audiovisual video to show the step by step to the audience, it make is easy for them to follow conjunction with the help of the facilitators and helpers. In addition, the facilitator would ask the audience to raise the green indicator to show that they have finished a step before proceed to the next step. This is to ensure that everyone is on the same step and complete the activity at the same time. The downside in the implementation stage is that the time management needs to be improve as we have exceeded the given timing of fifteen about one to two minutes. This is cause by spending too much time in the first step of the activity.
Cooperative learning and feedback are also key strategies within this instructional unit. Students will use rubrics, a form of feedback, to observe each other’s performance. Students will then discuss the rubric with the peer observed in order to praise correct techniques demonstrated. Likewise, the use of this peer observation will allow students to have an insight the techniques they are displaying that are improper and offer advice on how to correct these errors.

Reflection is an active process whereby we gain an understanding of how our professional experiences have contributed to our professional development. As a pragmatic learner, I understand the value of reflection as I consider previous experiences to determine the best course of action. From my earlier clinical placements and from feedback on my assessment forms I have identified some areas where my attitude and professional outlooks have matured and changed. My confidence, competence, knowledge, ability to work in a team, my interpersonal skills and attitudes towards patients and their families have developed. Over my four years of clinical placement I have been given greater responsibilities from the radiation therapists leading to more positive experiences.
Kinesthetic, visual, and auditory) similar to my previous videotaped lesson. There could have been more accommodations made for my students categorized as special, and I also do feel that I needed to give more prompt feedback to assure mastery of the concepts that I was teaching. These problems could have be alleviated with the use of guiding questions, answer choices, and graphic organizers. A strength that I am proud of maintaining is my effective classroom management and my use of a guided inquiry lesson. These components kept my lesson engaging, fun, and encouraged the students to be more autonomous as I helped them to construct their own knowledge about plants. Things that I did lack in my lesson was informing the students of the purpose of the lesson and the activities that I have planned for the lesson after performing my anticipatory set. As I mentioned previously, the teaching method that I used was guided inquiry. At this stage, we are not only encouraging our students to be the constructors of their own knowledge, but we are also encouraging them to be more independent as well. Using this teaching method provides students with some practice in using inquiry processes. All in all, I have noticed much improvement in my teaching compared to my last videotaped lesson, but there are still some important things that I need to work on: prompt feedback, and providing accommodations to meet the needs of all of my
The application of collaborative learning strategies is a process in which two or more students work together. Collaborative strategies will be used in planning, translating and reviewing the education process to form student learning through group-oriented activities. This source will also be useful in lesson planning to help explain how collaborative learning strategies in the classroom will help students in the learning process improve by interaction; how positive interdependence of collaborative learning leads to common responsibility; how collaborative learning builds students’ self-esteem, and confidence in students. This application recommends that collaborative learning strategies can be implemented with Jig-saw technique as well as in learning technology which can be accessible to all participants working in cooperative groups (Iqbal, Kousar, and Ajmal, 2011).
In the process of completing this coursework, I have realised that every teacher should be all-rounded and equipped with adequate skills of educating others as well as self-learning. As a future educator, we need make sure that our knowledge is always up-to-date and applicable in the process of teaching and learning from time to time. With these skills, we will be able to improvise and improve the lesson and therefore boost the competency of pupils in the process of learning. In the process of planning a lesson, I have changed my perception on lesson planning from the student’s desk to the teacher’s desk. I have taken the responsibility as a teacher to plan a whole 60-minutes lesson with my group members. This coursework has given me an opportunity
I will try to prepare my lesson 100% to enhance learning. I will try to research my topic and try to integrate different resources and activities to make my lesson engaging and interesting to my students. I am able to use a variety of methods to teach a lesson to the students. This helps the students to get engaged visually, physically and verbally. I did not know, but I really like to use different resources and art materials to create something that will enhance my lesson and able to engage my students throughout the lesson. By creating and using a variety of methods and activities during the center time, I can meet the student’s needs to help them to learn.
