4. Tales from the Field

5. Strategy 6: Adjusting Instruction

7. William Glasser’s Lead Teaching A warm, supportive classroom environment. A helpful teacher. Schoolwork that is useful. Encouragement for students to do the best they can. Evaluation and improvement of student work.

11. Preferred Activity Time Developed by Fred Jones “Co-opetition” http://fredjones.com/PAT

12. Reflective Teaching Module

13. Instructional Intervention Based on the literature you have read, develop an instructional intervention/strategy that is aimed at “fixing” or improving the issue. Implement the plan over a two week period (10 school days).

14. Variables What can you control? What are the factors that you are dealing with? What is it that you are going to change in the equation? Limitations are part of any experiment. You need to know what the limitations are and state them. This will come out in the Discussion section of your paper.

15. Data Collection What data will you collect? Some data will be pre-existing. Some data will be created / gathered by you. Note: This project is unique to every student in TCHR 6020. While there may be some similarities, each project will be different.

16. Some questions to consider: How will you measure change in behavior Why did you choose this method? How did you establish baseline data? How often will you introduce the instructional intervention? How will you measure change over time? How often will you measure change over time? Why did you choose to measure behavior at these intervals? How will you collect “end” data?

26. Modifications for Advanced Students Play to 100 Disallow paper for calculations or remembering numbers Use powers Use subtraction Allow negative numbers What about fractions?

33. The success of education depends on adapting teaching to individual differences among learners. Yuezheng, in 4th century B. C. Chinese treatise, Xue Ji

34. John F. Kennedy “Not every child has an equal talent, or an equal ability, or equal motivation, but children have the equal right to develop their talent, their ability, and their motivation.”

35. The biggest mistake of past centuries in teaching has been to treat all children as if they were variants of the same individual and thus feel justified in teaching them all the same subjects in the same way. -- Howard Gardner

36. Howard GardnerTheory of Multiple Intelligence “It’s not how smart you are but how you are smart.” video

38. What is Differentiation? Responding to students: Readiness levels Interests Preferred learning modes Curriculum modification of: Content Process Products Tomlinson (1999)

39. Competency Goal 4: The learner will conduct investigations and use appropriate technology to build an understanding of the form and function of the skeletal and muscle systems of the human body. 4.01 Identify the skeleton as a system of the human body. 4.02 Describe several functions of bones: Support / Protection / Locomotion 4.03 Describe the functions of different types of joints: Hinge / Ball and socket / Gliding 4.04 Describe how different kinds of joints allow movement and compare this to the movement of mechanical devices. 4.05 Observe and describe how muscles cause the body to move.

40. The Five Dimensions of Differentiation Content (Knowledge) Process (Pedagogy) Yourself Products (Expression Styles) Classroom Organization and Management

42. What is Curriculum Compacting? • Modifying or streamlining the regular curriculum • Eliminating the repetition of previously mastered material • Upgrading the challenge level of the regular curriculum • Providing time for enrichment and/or acceleration activities while ensuring mastery of basic skills

43. Three Objectives To create a challenging learning environment within the context of the regular curriculum To guarantee proficiency in the basic curriculum To “buy” time for enrichment and acceleration

46. Satisfies hunger to learn more about self-selected topics

47. Encourages independence

49. Spelling, mathematics, or grammar.

50. Pre-testing is easier to accomplish.

52. Students may already know the objectives or may be able to read the material and master the objectives in a fraction of the time.

53. More flexible – students can absorb the material at their own speed.
