...Community teaching proposal is detailed and comprehensive with supportive evidence and a detailed description of barriers and strategies to overcome barriers. Evidence from current literature and statistical / demographic data published on the community thoroughly supports the proposal in all required areas of the work plan. PROPOSED COMMUNITY TEACHING When required, “the Amish are permitted to use modern health care facilities and services including surgery, hospitalization, anesthesia, blood transfusions, and dental work. However, distance, lack of transportation, and cost can serve as barriers to accessing the health care delivery system” (Julia, 1996, p.27). In contrast with modern American culture, health promotion and disease prevention are not priorities among the Amish. Accordingly, immunizations for communicable diseases are accepted, but only about 58% of Amish children have received such immunizations (Julia, 1996, p.32). Furthermore, Amish are generally reactive, rather than proactive, regarding healthcare. Overall, health is highly valued in the Amish culture and they consider their bodies to be God’s temple. Nurses and other healthcare providers must develop open and trusting relationships with their Amish patients. This can start with a focus on family-centered care. Furthermore, the nurse needs knowledge of the Amish belief system and way of life to provide culturally sensitive care. Using empowering strategies will help to make the Amish feel more...

...Developing Project Proposals – Internet Exercises Part One: Based on the results of your search, find a sample proposal that has been posted on the Web. What Company or organization developed the proposal, and what objective was it trying to accomplish? The sample project proposal I found from the web was for server replacement (Proposal example, 2013). It was developed by ITHACA College as sample project proposal for Cheezewiz application. Cheezewiz is used by the Rodent students of the Ithaca College to support its research and teaching activities. Cheezewiz is one of the leading applications also used in the private field and it’s developed by Cheezewiz Authorities Inc. The Objective of this proposal is to clarify the project purpose and to gain approval to proceed towards developing the Project Charter. Their objective was clearly mentioned in the purpose and justification section of the proposal. Part Two: Evaluate the effectiveness of this proposal based on information you have studied in this chapter. Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the proposal. Are there any items missing from the proposal that should have been included? The author mentioned in the book (Gido, 2009) that developing a proposal for a larger company should be treated as project in itself. If the proposal is for large technical projects, it would be multivolume documents and it includes three sections such as technical, management and cost. The sample proposal I chose is not for large technical...

...Most important, to be actively involved, students must engage in such higher-order thinking tasks as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Within this context, it is proposed that strategies promoting active learning be defined as instructional activities involving students in doing things and thinking about what they are doing’.Students and their learning needs are at the center of active learning which makes it very effective when introducing this pedagogical approach in any lesson. Some active-learning techniques are easier to use in your class and some are harder when it comes to teaching. Teaching methods are constantly changing with teacher and school introducing new pedagogical approaches to teaching, but time and time again active learning producing a much higher sense of achievement and accomplishment in comparison to the old didactic methods of route learning in school. Teaching is becoming more practical nowadays where students are becoming actively more and more involved in their learning. There is a big emphasis on relating the material students are covering to real life examples. Geoff Petty (2004) states ‘We learn by doing. Research shows that active learning is much better recalled, enjoyed and understood. Active methods require us to 'make our own meaning’, that is, develop our own conceptualisations of what we are learning. During this process we...

...years. Mrs. Molosky is very knowledgeable and has had much experience in teaching both subjects. Mrs. Molosky challenges the students to think independently and to come to know the world through its marvel and its ancestors. The classes in the school are crowded and full of diversity, therefore not only was I able to observe the higher level classes but I was fortunate to observe the lower classes which consisted of Learning Support and ESL students. The science class was very enlightening and attention-grabbing to say the least because Mrs. Molosky had to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of the different levels. Every 2-3 weeks the teacher replaces one subject with the other depending on the depth of the information within the chapter and the rate at which the students grasp the material. At this time Mrs. Molosky was teaching a unit in Science called “The Solar System and Beyond”. During my observing of this unit of instruction, I was able to compile the information needed to respond to the questions within the module. The following is the information: Were other content areas such as reading, writing, math and technology integrated into the science lesson by the teacher? Yes, the teacher did integrate the content area of Reading by using compare and contrast, sequence, categorizing and classifying information, and drawing conclusions. The subject area of Math was applied through teaching how to calculate the distance in astronomical units in the Solar System...

...1.1 Explain the role of initial and diagnostic assessment in agreeing individual learning goals. Initial and diagnostic assessments should effectively diagnose learners’ strengths and weaknesses. Learners who know what their strengths are and which areas they need to improve are more likely be motivated and “know what is expected of them” (Gravells, 2012, p.50) to progress and meet the requirements of a course or programme. In order to determine “the level and which specific aspects learners need to improve on” (Gravells, 2012, p.50), teachers should administer initial and diagnostic assessments to them before or at the start of a course or programme. The results of initial and diagnostic assessments can be used to help learners agree on Individual Learning Plans specifically designed to meet their learning needs. Some learners might have expectations of making rapid progress within a course or programme but unexpectedly experience difficulties due to a lack of personal or functional skills. Initial and diagnostic assessments should help teachers identify problems early relating to their learners’ personal skills. In certain circumstances, results from initial and diagnostic assessment might indicate that some learners do not have the requisite skills to have any realistic chance of progressing within a course or programme and they should be referred to a course or programme which more specifically meets their learning needs. On the other hand, some learners might have very...

...Teaching Philosophy Statement I am not yet a teacher but have had a strong desire to be one ever since I was a child. I recall playing with my sisters and I loved playing the role as a teacher. I grew up in a bilingual environment. As a child I knew how to speak and read Spanish but, I was lacking grammar skills. I wanted to know my home language fluently in all aspects. Therefore, I want to facilitate my future students to be able to learn a second language. My drive is to pursue a higher education to my students that way they could become successful life. I am going to act like a guide to them and promoting respect to all my students. It is my life aspiration to be an excellent high school teacher who motivates students to achieve the highest level of education. Not only I am pushing myself but also, I want to be a teacher to push my students to excellence. Perseverance is my motto, and I want to pass that on to my students. I want them to see my example: I’ve worked hard and never once gave up on what I wanted to become –their teacher. I believe that my role as a teacher is to give my students the tools necessary to be successful. In order to accomplish this goal, I will find ways to teach each student based on their needs that way all my students will feel capable and successful. Another way that I would help my students is by incorporate themes, projects, group work, to make my students active learners. I want to inspire Spanish and English speakers to ascertain their...

...FIELD REPORT: Observing Electronic Devices Usage in Class and Discussing Whether College Teachers Should Allow Students Use Laptops In Class By Bingqian Zhou Reporting Period: Autumn 2012, October 9–16 Abstract As technology become more advanced and widespread, people are able to purchase various personal electronic devices at a lower cost. It also leads to the trend that more and more students bring their personal electronic devices to class. I observed the use of electronic devices in three different courses, and I also interviewed two instructors with unique teaching styles and asked them their opinions about whether should allow their students use laptops during lectures. The reason I did this report is that I have seen many students bring their laptops to class for different purposes, and also realized that college teachers have different policies on the use of personal electronic devices. I observed student’s behavior in several classes, 70% of the students brought electronic devices to class, which only 20% of them actually used them for class related work. I also interviewed two instructors about their attitude of using laptops during class. One of them believed that it was helpful and convenient for students take notes on the computer and follow up with course materials. The other teacher argued that it was distractive to others if some students use their laptops to do non-class activities and was also disrespectful to the instructor. The conclusion of this report...

Dayto ------------------------------------------------- Observation Questions: 1. What are the objectives of the lesson? I have observed many subjects. And I think the objective in every different subject is; to make students learn but his objective is not OBE or outcomes based. And the reason is the teacher is not making any lesson plan. 2. What learning activities were introduced? I think it is about sharing his experience to his students makes a good learning activity. With the help of sharing your students will be active and it is a good strategy to take away any drowsiness in the classroom. 3. How do the learners participate in these activities? By listening and doing what the teacher will tell. Like in their class in P.E. they participate by playing the volleyball in correct manner. 4. What instructional materials were employed? Discuss whether such materials were computer generated or not. How did she prepare these materials? There are no instructional materials if the teacher teaches his students. But there are some if there is a reporter. They’re not computer generated. Their materials are more on Manila paper. 5. How did the teacher assess the...

...Peer coaching verses traditional coaching Peer coaching has being observed from this abstract to have being far productive than the traditional mode of teaching more so in the three parameters that were tested. Their were instances whereby peer coaching was found to be not a good tool to use or may present unwanted results. Pre service teachers lack experience so when peer reviewing they may give wrong suggestions leading one to wrong conclusions or direction to take in the future, such as incorporating in his lessons materials which the peer reviewer felt was missing yet it might not be required. She/he may include a certain degree of bias in his assessment and suggestions which will lead to his suggestion lacking much usefulness and relevancy, like when a peer reviewed teacher in his or her own opinion insist that the other uses a certain technique that he/she did not use in her lesson and feels it’s the cause of why her/his lesson didn’t reach his objectives. Note she/he didn’t use the technique yet she is vouching for it (quoted from audio tape no.5B extract). While we appreciate that peer coaching leads to instant “results”, those results are not a product of proper analysis due to the urgency by which they are given-at the end of a lesson, they luck in depth unlike those that the traditional preservice teacher students will get from an experienced supervisor and an experienced teacher , Traditional coaching does not provide the student with enough interactions with...
