Annotated Bibliography on research-based teaching practices In his article, Gary D. Borich presents practical yet realistic, research-based teaching practices that have proven effective for engaging students in the learning process, managing their classroom and increasing student achievement. It not only tells what to do to obtain these results but shows how to obtain them. The text explains how individual differences and learner diversity affect student learning needs and classroom management. It also explores teaching strategies in-depth, explaining how to use both direct instructional methods and indirect methods. A self-report survey instrument is included to help the teachers to measure concerns about themselves, the teaching task and their impact on students. The book consists of significant discussions of standardized tests and exercises for Praxis test preparation. It provides field experience activities and classroom observation activities for effective teaching. In the Modern Teaching Methods and Techniques by Zikr-ur-Rahman, it gives the teaching methods that are considered a handy learning tool as the active student participation is mandatory. The book has vast strengths to how learning and teaching methods are concerned. It describes…

The teaching plan The teaching plan for the patient involves teaching on the risk factors of diabetes, education on the need for immediate insulin injection, and how it works along with the significance of video game intervention. Educating the patient on the risk factors associated with diabetes will enable the patient to understand the likely cause of her condition. Therefore, it will help the patient to develop a positive attitude towards her health condition. The plan will differ from the adult plan since the teaching plan for an adult will not contain an explanation of the importance of video game intervention in managing diabetes. Children and youths are always resistant to insulin injection compared to adults. The video games would, therefore, enable them to take care of their diabetic condition by themselves. Unlike, children who require video game intervention to manage diabetes due to their high resistance rate to medication, adults are non-resistant to the diabetes medication. Hence, they do not need teaching on video games. The video game would help the patient to engage in self-care of her diabetic…

Plan for Implementing Manipulative Teaching for Geometry Class Teaching involves imparting knowledge and skills to a learner by the teacher. Effective learning is believed to have taken place when the learner can comprehend the meaning of the ideas taught in class by the teacher. This requires that the teacher must apply appropriate skills and teaching methodologies that are easily recognizable to the learners to demystify the notion that some subjects are hard and abstract. For instance, to simplify the complex mathematical concepts and theories, teachers need to apply more practical approaches using manipulative approaches that draw essential skills from the cultural context (Willingham, 2017). Maths has a lot of application in the everyday lives of human beings. Consequently, virtually all have different representational systems and models that relate to various aspects of quantitative information. No doubt, utilizing the manipulative approaches to teaching multiple topics of mathematics makes the learning process more effective and understandable to learners by delivering the learning process in a more practical and simplified manner. The following presentation seeks to discuss utilization of representation systems as artefacts…

Personal teaching philosophy Furthermore, my goal is to inspire students. I believe that being enthusiastic and committed to teaching my course to my student will directly influence their commitment to studying nursing and having more curiosity to learn. Also, by providing support and a friendly environment in class, the student will be inspired to explore. Additionally, I want to mentor my students to be more than intellects. I believe that intellectual skills are essential in the classroom. However, students are not meant to stay in school forever. I want the intellectual skills acquired in class to help them have strong analytical, problem-solving skills, and creative thinking. I will feel as an achieved teacher since I will have prepared my student ‘s for lifelong learning. The best teaching strategy method that will positively impact a student’s learning is empowering and supporting to grow their knowledge. I believe helping a student while they are learning will inspire them to learn and be curious. A student’s find a classroom in a friendly environment when they have a supportive teacher, where they can openly…

divine revelation and teachings Every religion has a founder. This is the person who claims to have a divine revelation and teachings that he or she teaches to his followers. In most cases, these founders are very charismatic people who are the unifying factor to their followers. Due to their charisma, they are much respected and honoured by their followers. After their death, the immediate disciples or followers are left with the task of spreading the gospel of their master. As a result, this second generation of people in that religion is also highly respected maybe because they heard the gospel from the horse’s mouth and thus can account to the life of their master. However, as the ages go, the third generation and the fourth henceforth are not taken with a lot of respect. For instance, in Christianity, much respect is in Jesus and his immediate disciples (Livingstone, 130). No wonder they have written the bible but also prohibit it from being edited, corrected or improved. The generation that followed the disciples hitherto is not much adored, yet they…

Teachings of Marx and Nietzsche 1.The Theory of social change considers the very existence of “social classes,” and it tends to be inherently conflictual and antagonistic. Ideally, the theory highlights that the ruling class has shown a tendency to be exploitative. This theory further covers the Bourgeoisie, who is also known as the capitalists. These people are not only destructive, but they are also exploitative. They work towards the maximization of profits at all costs, and they approach this by reducing the cost of production. By affecting the revenue generated by the production sector, the capitalist impact on the labor sector, imposing labor at little payment. The Proletariat, who is the new working class, has created a huge productive force that they use to counter the Capitalists. Through this effort, they have also established an economic system, “Creative destruction”, and through this, the personal worth has become the exchange value Internal contradictions of capitalism and its Competition and shameless profit. Ideologies are a huge part of the construction of a superstructure of the community. Also incorporative of the material conditions,…

CO-TEACHING INTERVENTIONS  Collaborating with another teacher or a paraprofessional to co-teach helps to meet the unique needs of all students in an integrated setting. Learning how to develop positive relationships, share responsibilities, plan, and implement instructional delivery together can be challenging, but has a multitude of benefits. How teachers make decisions about behavior management, classroom routines, and delivery of instruction can directly affect the learning of the students as well as the overall classroom climate. Imagine you have a fifth grade student, Joel, in an inclusive class. Joel is 11-years-old and has autism, and he is struggling with working in groups, getting along with other students, and interacting at age-appropriate levels within groups. Group work is used regularly for assignments. You find that Joel has meltdowns during every group work session. Sometimes he even has these meltdowns before students are put in groups, as he anticipates the overstimulation before it even occurs. Other students have expressed concerns and have asked to not be in his group. [unique_solution]When meltdowns occur, they affect the entire classroom for several minutes. The outbursts range…

Confucianism and its teaching Confucianism and its teaching was first introduced by Confucius around (770-476 BCE). It began as a way of bringing in old traditional pedagogy based on peace and harmony by guiding the moral compass of the society. The core basis and foundation of Confucianism is the establishment of proper morality and codes of conduct in the community. It suggested that once the moral compass of the society is streamlined, the behavior of people change towards a better good of society. This old tradition was to be passed on from older generations to new ones, making it a way of life. Despite its original teachings, it continued to observe the strict rules of the ancient society as a way of incorporating both the old and the new ideas. These moral conducts do not only revolve around specific societal values but also applies to politics, education, psychology, religion, and metaphysics. Hence, Confucianism has created a moral theory based on five constant virtues of humaneness (ren), righteousness (yi), ritual/propriety (li), wisdom (zhi), and faithfulness (xin). The moral theory practice of…
