Canada: Project Outline are some ideas for managing implementation of appropriate for students just learningthe research independent Group Projects Complimentary Products Groups http://homeandnativeland.net/outline.html
Extractions: Project Outline Implementation Possibilities Project Outline Guide for Teachers Each component has two to four elements all contributing to the end product. Each element should be completed and checked in sequence in order to provide direction and feedback on the student's work. These are periods of formative evaluation, an opportunity to teach/re-teach/reinforce concepts covered earlier. The summative evaluation will be on the final product and you may use the rubrics as they are, or as a guide for developing a marking scheme or rubric with your class. The first four projects provide specific instruction on one element of the research process while the last four are general in nature, providing opportunity for students to implement the research process on their own. While the first four projects focus only on one elements of the research process, students, will, of course, complete all four stages in the FLIP IT! model for each activity. Below are suggestions for the first few classes and a brief synopsis of the project components. Following that are some ideas for managing implementation of the project in your particular situation. Notice how the FLIP IT! model is used as the overall approach to the entire project, but is also reflected in each lesson suggestion.

What is the best way to manage time when tutoring? I know one way is to setup an agenda for each session, but if you are in the middle of a problem and time is up, do you continue or do you defer it to the next session? 2. How would you help students with their home works and assignments without really doing the work that is their responsibility? Sometimes there is a fine line between helping and doing, how would you recognize that line? 3. What are the top 5 traits of a good tutor? And what is the best way to learn them?

Extractions: Within the four ways for differentiating instruction there are embedded several other learning strategies which are used in conjunction with each other. (http://www.dese.state.mo.us/divinstr/gifted/pubref.htm#INSTRUCTIONAL%20STRATEGIES) Missouri Department of Education Teachers new to differentiating instruction may initially choose to use individual strategies and begin by differentiating either content, process or product . It is also important to recognize that there is a considerable overlap between the strategies listed below. As teachers become comfortable with these strategies several may be very effectively employed simultaneously. For example: students may be grouped by interest but may also have activities set at different levels of complexity (questioning levels/abstract thinking processes) resulting in varying products that employ students' preferred learning modality (auditory, visual or kinesthetic).

Course Description: This course provides the student the opportunity to implement the nurse-faculty role in an academic setting. The student works with a nurse-faculty to gain actual experience teaching nursing and refining techniques learned about the teaching learning process. Course Objectives: Role of Faculty: Faculty has final decision-making authority in selecting expert faculty to serve as a preceptor for the student in selected clinical experiences. The faculty approves learning objectives and activities designed by student, guides the student in selection of internship experiences and evaluates student performance in the course with input from the preceptor. The faculty will attempt to identify internship opportunities which will facilitate the student's career goals and will consider the geographic location in which the student lives; however, the final decision for selection of preceptor and program will be made to facilitate student success in meeting the objectives of this course. The student may not complete the clinical internship hours in the program or team in which they currently function in a faculty role.

Larger class sizes pose significant teaching challenges, not least in the assessment of student learning. Perhaps most troubling, large classes may limit the amount of feedback provided to students. In response to the pressures and challenges of assessing larger groups of students, academic staff are responding through: greater attention to the communication of clear assessment criteria to students;

DROPOUT PREVENTION/ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION Texas has established dropout prevention as one of its primary goals. TEA considers the dropout rate as one of four criteria in assigning annual accountability ratings to districts and schools, along with performance on the TAAS, attendance and data quality. TEA requires districts to report information on students who leave school, which is used to determine a district's dropout rate. Districts must use the guidelines in the TEA Leaver Codes and Definitions to report information on students who withdraw from school. School districts must also develop a comprehensive dropout prevention plan that addresses how schools will work to prevent students from dropping out of school. BISD reduced its dropout rate from 1.6 percent in 1997-98 to 1.0 percent in 2000-01. BISD's 2000-01 dropout rate was the third lowest among peer districts, lower than the rate in Region 1 and the same as the state average (

Extractions: ENCOURAGING AND ENABLING STUDENTS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN LEARNING Introduction There are a lot of myths in education. Included in these are that children are either intelligent or unintelligent and that progress of schools is illusory with the same things being repeated. Some even feel that we are moving away from a " golden age of education" . These myths need to be seen for what they are. New developments in thinking skills and the realisation that there are multiple intelligences along with the use of new technology, easy access to information and ever more rapid change (both technological and social) should overturn the prevailing orthodoxy once and for all. Perhaps in the future the bureaucratic need for schools will collapse and they will be replaced by learning webs, but in the meantime we need to think creatively about how we get children to be active rather than passive learners. Some say that "you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink." Why set homework?

Extractions: The Globalisation of Open and Flexible Learning: Considerations for Planners and Managers Abstract Distance education institutions have always managed to teach students beyond the frontiers of the jurisdiction within which they exist as physical entities. The development of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has greatly expanded the number of institutions offering programmes on a regional or global basis. This article looks at some of the problems that such institutions have faced, and continue to face, in terms of delivery of materials, student access to technology, structures, and maintenance of consistency and quality of service. The article ends with advice to planners and managers on the issues that they need to pay particular attention. Introduction The development of modern Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has greatly helped the emergence of global distance education systems. New institutions claiming to deliver courses globally are emerging; existing institutions are trying to change their teaching strategies in order to position themselves to deliver their courses more effectively on a global basis; and commentators are predicting the globalisation of education as more and more institutions, in the face of competition both real and perceived, adopt online technologies in order to teach globally. What does the educational planner and manager have to think about when he or she begins to think about "going global"?
