http://www.upenn.edu/almanac/v43/n22/teach.html

Extractions: by Larry Robbins and Herb Levine Recent Almanac articles have described important efforts to improve teaching at Penn. The University is clearly interested in creating an environment that promotes effective teaching and learning. One such initiative involves the concept of mentoring. A mentoring program has existed for over five years at Wharton and has subsequently been extended to SEAS and some departments in SAS. Two and half years ago, the chair of the Economics Department created a departmental mentoring program. The basic aim of a mentoring program is to enable teachers to observe their own techniques of instruction and to make appropriate changes. The mentoring program has three components: 1) an exploratory conversation about teaching issues important to the instructor; 2) videotaping of a class; and 3) a discussion between mentor and teacher about the videotaped class. Some of the individuals who participate in the mentoring program believe or have been told that they have some kind of problem. An effective mentoring relationship will certainly deal with problems but should also address some generic issues of teaching: for example, how to create a syllabus that encourages learning within a discipline and how to present intellectual material in a way that stimulates students to think analytically. While the class is being videotaped by a cameraperson, the mentor takes notes on the process of teaching: how and how soon the class begins, interaction between teacher and class, cross-talk among students, general organization including summaries and transitions, the way the class ends and, of course, presentation skills. When viewing the tape, the teacher is asked to make similar notes, concentrating both on organization and presentation.

THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC WHAT IS DISTANCE EDUCATION? FORMS OF DISTANCE EDUCATION In its original form, teachers using distance education traveled to remote sites and taught a class, or corresponded with students through mail, telephone, or fax machine. Individualized study has been a method of reaching the remote student for some time. Detailed course instructions are sent to the learner who performs the assigned tasks and returns the completed work to the teacher for evaluation and reassignment if necessary. Technology has raised the quality of individualized distance instruction. The use of various forms of electronic media increases time effectiveness and improves the delivery of information. Video, audio, and computer-based applications may enhance the product received by the independent learner. Electronic delivery can occur using synchronous communication, in which class members participate at the same time, or asynchronous communication where participants are separated by time (Romiszowski, 1993).

Because he prepares students to be teachers themselves for a variety of learnerspatients, family members, students, and peershe strives to be a good role model both inside and outside the classroom. "My learners have always been able to feel my passion for my subject matter, and I have seen them become excited as well, when they recognize its importance in their personal and professional lives. To be recognized by one's peers as an excellent teacher is an honor; however, to be nominated and supported by one's learners, I believe, is the greatest award a teacher can recieve."
Teaching To Overcome Dyslexia In The Dyslexia Institute
We teach in ways that dyslexic pupils can learn. Regular Inservice days keep ourteachers abreast of new, effective teaching methods and current research.
http://www.dyslexia-inst.org.uk/teach.htm

Extractions: The Dyslexia Institute's 25 centres, located throughout the UK, and more than 125 outposts and in-school units provide specialist teaching for children and adults. Our teachers receive considerable in-service training to keep them at the 'leading edge'. Lessons are normally for one to three hours each week, taken on the same or different days, depending on the age and needs of the student. Two (Duo lessons) or three (Trio lessons) students will usually be working in the room, each following his or her own individual programme. Sometimes they will be working with the teacher, and sometimes doing practice work on their own, using a variety of aids to assist their learning, including computers. Many centres also offer study skills groups, adult groups and mathematics lessons. There is widespread agreement that teaching for dyslexic children and adults should be: STRUCTURED - so reading and spelling make sense. CUMULATIVE - to build up skills gradually. MULTI-SENSORY - using sight, sound and touch. THOROUGH - over-learning to compensate for weak memory.
Developing Effective Technology Plans

http://www.nctp.com/john.see.html

Extractions: Minnesota Department of Education Effective technology plans are short term, not long term. Five year plans are too long. Technology is changing so fast that it is almost impossible to plan what type of technology will be available for use five years from now. Even one year plans may now be about as far ahead as effective planning for purchases of certain types or brands of equipment can take place. If a long-term plan is derived, tie it to the district's budget cycle. Pull the plan out every year during the budget process and review it to make sure the plan has not tied your school into buying outdated equipment. Do not let a technology plan lock you into old technology and applications just because it says so in the plan. Newer, more powerful, lower cost technology may be available to replace what is specified in a five year old plan. Effective technology plans focus on applications, not technology. In other words, make your technology plan outcome-based, not input-based. Develop a plan that specifies what students, staff, and administration should be able to do with technology and let those outcomes determine the types and amount of technology your plan requests.

Fourteen distinguished scholars offer a comprehensive overview of the variety of current research, which abundantly demonstrates that there are a finite number of teaching skills that increase student motivation and scholastic achievement. Intended primarily for faculty in all postsecondary institutions who regularly teach as part of their job descriptions, this volume will also be useful for faculty developers, academic administrators, and policymakers committed to issues involving teaching proficiency 1997: 7 x 10" 464 pages Paper ISBN 0-87586-117-2 $30.00 Cloth ISBN 0-7586-116-4 $64.00 "Often in book reviews one sees the comment that a book should be required reading for a given field. Often the implications of ignoring that comment are negligible (an anonymous reviewer of your next article might suggest adding the book to your footnotes!). This book, however, with its clearly stated connections between research findings and their ramifications, indeed should be required reading for administrators and faculty at any stage of their careers. Many of the studies' results should be made known to students. The results of ignoring such research and discussions of its implications are felt far beyond the narrow field of specialists in higher education research and are all too familiar at many universities."

http://www.teachforamerica.org/why/teacher.html

Extractions: Teach For America corps members face all the challenges encountered by first-year teachers anywhere. They must learn how to manage classes of students, plan for their instruction, assess their students progress, and so on, and they must learn to work effectively with the administrators and teachers in their unique schools. On top of all this, corps members face even greater challenges than new teachers who are not working in under-resourced areas. They see all the challenges of poverty play out in their classrooms, and in order to be successful they must go above and beyond traditional expectations to help their students tackle them. While nothing Teach For America can do will make the challenge of teaching in an under-resourced area easy, we have developed a training program over time that is geared toward helping you learn what has worked for successful teachers in urban and rural areas. Moreover, we offer access to a strong regional support network that many corps members have found to be invaluable in their success.

http://www.project2061.org/tools/sfaaol/Chap13.htm

Extractions: Although Science for All Americans emphasizes what students should learn, it also recognizes that how science is taught is equally important. In planning instruction, effective teachers draw on a growing body of research knowledge about the nature of learning and on craft knowledge about teaching that has stood the test of time. Typically, they consider the special characteristics of the material to be learned, the background of their students, and the conditions under which the teaching and learning are to take place. Learning Is Not Necessarily an Outcome of Teaching Cognitive research is revealing that even with what is taken to be good instruction, many students, including academically talented ones, understand less than we think they do. With determination, students taking an examination are commonly able to identify what they have been told or what they have read; careful probing, however, often shows that their understanding is limited or distorted, if not altogether wrong. This finding suggests that parsimony is essential in setting out educational goals: Schools should pick the most important concepts and skills to emphasize so that they can concentrate on the quality of understanding rather than on the quantity of information presented.
