Week 5 Reflection

Decent Essays
Hi Team,
To start the week 5 conversation, here is my contribute and thoughts on learning outcomes (chapter 6). Please add, challenge, or re-direct the conversation as you feel necessary. Moreover, my goal of starting this conversation is to help us flush out our thoughts and ideas to complete and revise the “context template “due on Sunday. Of course we can revise it later as we have all agreed in past meetings designing thinking in non-linear and allows us time to reflect and improve our program.
I should also add my thoughts are based on the 2 learner personas, I have draft. I know we have not had time to discuss as a group and I hope to do that this evening, but regardless I wanted to start a conversation and I’m happy to revise my

I think we have two learning outcomes (1) learning about a specific aspect of the natural environment and (2) learning about technology. Therefore, I think the learning experience focus will be different for each of these 2 aspects. Does the team agree?
If so, the level of Bloom’s taxonomy that I believe the natural environment learning experience will focus on is “Understanding” (Larsen, 2014, pg. 126). The reason I want to focus on understanding is because I believe in order for people to respect the environment, they need to understand it. Please challenge, disagree or add.
Then the level of Bloom’s taxonomy that I believe the technology learning experience will focus on is “Applying” and maybe even “Creating” (Larsen, 2014, pg. 126). I hesitate to focus as far are create but I think it will be only natural when they start using the teaching to produce their end produce (picture book, film, etc.)

I would love to read, hear or discuss as a group everyone’s ideas and hopefully we can transform all our work into outcomes and answer the final question at tonight’s team meeting: What outcomes will be achieved through learner engagement with your learning

    Summary I gain a lot of insight and learning from going through the process of identifying a student, getting to know them, administering a variety of assessments, writing about and interpreting the test results, researching interventions and supports, and making recommendations based on all of the information collected. My two main takeaways are that I had some difficulties with Woodcock Johnson IV assessment and that I significantly changed my mind about the pedagogy of math. I struggled with administering and interpreting the Woodcock Johnson IV. While I was administering the test it was difficult to just follow the script and not prompt the student to think about the question longer or review their work before they had a final answer.…

    1-a. Share the learning outcome(s) you either wrote or revised using the steps outlined in the module. One of the course objectives I used to use for Music Cultures World was “Students will be able to identify and discuss the differences and similarities among musical performances from a variety of cultural contexts.” After taking the ACUE 1A module, I decided to revise the course outcome as follows: 1) Students will be able to illustrate the connection between music and dance in African music by producing a 5-minute flash mob. 2) Students will be able to demonstrate the application of a number notation system by creating a 5-minute gamelan performance.…

    Through rigorous instruction and positive character education, Aurum Preparatory Academy Charter School (“Aurum Prep”) educates all of its students, grades 6 – 8, to succeed in high school, college, and life and to serve as the next generation of moral leaders. All students deserve a quality education regardless of race, gender, socio-economic status, and/or zip code. In 1903, W.E.B. Dubois supported the idea of the “Talented Tenth,” articulating that advancement for black people would ultimately be possible through the attainment of a rigorous education by a few. In a more fully democratic country, in which we push for the advancement of all people, and in an intellectually-based modern economy, in which advanced education provides the fullest…

    Until very recently, I have had little to no knowledge or contact with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island culture and heritage. My knowledge came from sections of high school history classes. Before entering ABST100, I had a broad understanding on the history of colonization, Indigenous Australians themselves, and on Indigenous Identity. However, over the duration of both Week 1’s tutorial and lecture, I quickly noticed that the course content for Introducing Indigenous Australia was very different from my other subjects, where it allowed me to gain an exceptional amount of knowledge and broaden my views on Indigenous Australia and Indigenous Australians.…

    Short Term 12 was a very interesting movie. It had hints of being realistic, but with aspects where you knew it was a movie. It’s about a group of workers who work in a foster care residential facility setting. The main character, Grace, deals with her own personal struggles while she supervises the children at the facility. I have a short bit of experience at a facility like Short Term 12 in some aspects; I can see where parts of the movie are realistic and where are some are an exaggeration because it is a movie.…

    Many of the students in my 8th Grade Math class, and all math classes at Edna Brewer Middle School enter with different experiences, biases, levels of understanding, mathematical strategies toolkits, and skill sets. My current 8th grade classroom is a perfect example of that. I have students who have an understanding of previously taught mathematical concepts, number sense, and can connect that previous learning to what is expected of students to learn in 8th grade. Although, I also have students who have struggled, had different life experiences, and did not access those same previously taught mathematical concepts. So how can I now as a new teacher at Edna Brewer Middle School and their 8th Grade Math Teacher, close the gap that my students already have when they enter my classroom?…

    Prior to completing ENGL 2200, I had many misconceptions. I believed creativity to simply turn a new and innovative idea into reality and in order to be creative as well as imaginative you must act on the ideas you develop. I learned that creativity is so much more in addition to being the foundation for developing newer technology, literature, artwork, and so much more in life. I also believed imagination to be a personal thing and what stimulates thoughts for myself may not be the same thing that stimulates thoughts for others. I am the type of person who when faced with a problem that needs a solution, I generate ideas with fluency and flexibility.…

    This past Thursday I visited the Smith Academy for Excellence and was surprised at how the school worked to help the boys learn best. We learned that most of the boys come from a poverty stricken neighborhood with many family problems. Along with this, a majority of the students were African American but there were also a few Caucasians and Latinos. The age/grade range of the boys is from second grade up until twelfth. They are extremely proud that this is the first year they will have a graduating class, including a young man who had previously graduated in the winter.…

    Activity one asks educators to explore their own thoughts and reactions on their own perceptions of others, and what they perceive as their own biases and that of others’ (Green, 2001). That is as feminists poststructuralists; educators will be able to challenge the idea and truths in their own biases and discourses towards current families and new families that arrive within the centre (Mac Naughton, 2005). The concept is for the educators to think about their current practices and in how they approach families who are bilingual. Furthermore, through the discussions they will also be able to discover how their colleagues and themselves view these families in a social context (Freire, 1998).…

    Critical Theory Reflection

    My outlook on teaching and education has undergone an immense amount of change since the commencement of the master’s programme. My core beliefs as a person have not changed, but during my teaching placement, I have had a vast amount of different experiences which have opened up my eyes to different world views. Experiences of exposures to different world views alone is not enough to influence my teaching. Critical theory is a tool that I have used to analyse the experiences that I am having while teaching to see what impacts they are having on my teaching practise. Critical theory provides a deeper lens to unpack a teaching experience, (Carrington & MacArthur, 2012).…
