outlines good practice. Followed, it will provide consistency and unity between teachers, classrooms and children. This also is a means to assess our progress, and provide the basis for teacher appraisal and professional development. I believe that this framework, by combining the best of current 'best practices' with new ideas about how students learn, presents a focussed vision of teaching and learning for the 21st Century. The Teaching Framework can be converted to a simple Appraisal Document by having each point assessed on a 1-10 scale and by noting areas of strength and area for future development. This will be completed annually. A simple 1-10 continuum allows data to be aggregated for School Self Review. The Interim Professional Standards for Primary School Teachers have been placed in what I believe to be the most appropriate place within our existing Teaching Framework. . FRAMEWORK POINTS POINT ONE Communication and Support for and Cooperation with colleagues We all need to work within the school Mission and Values and if we do this (and are supported by the home) we believe students can achieve more than is currently expected. Therefore we will: 1. Align all teaching towards achieving the school Mission Statement and associated policies and procedures. Our actions will contribute to the development of a positive image for our school.

22. Lc_approach While students are engaged in independent learning activities, the play a big partin managing the classroom and teachers are there to facilitate the learning. http://www.geocities.com/EnchantedForest/Glade/6190/lc_approach.html

The Learning Center Approach by Deborah Dees and Heather Stoehr Using Developmental Learning Centers is one way to manage a multiage classroom environment. This page is intended to explain the basics of implementing this type of an environment. On this page you will learn what the learning center approach is, how to manage the environment and what a typical day might look like. What are Developmental Learning Centers? Learning centers are independent stations set up throughout the classroom to cover a variety of academic subjects (eg. Math, Writing, Music). All the learning centers are thematically designed. Many themes can last anywhere between 3 and 9 weeks. This makes learning more in-depth and meaningful for the children, and the planning and implementation more user friendly for the teacher. Center activities are open-ended whenever possible to encourage exploring subjects to a satisfying conclusion. Centers are used for reinforcement, enrichment, remediation and review. The learning center block of time in an instructional day is often the meat of the program. While students are engaged in independent learning activities, the teacher is allowed to work with students in small groups to teach specific language arts or math skills and to assess students progress. In this environment, the teacher is the facilitator of learning rather than the dictator of it. Students are allowed to learn on their own developmental timeline, construct their own meaning, and experience success at their own levels.

Preparing for the First Day of Class The impression you make on the first day of class will set the tone for the rest of the course. In this session, you will build a "toolbox" of information and skills to prepare for the first day of class. Session topics will include teacher-student expectations in the classroom, setting the tone for the course, and building a positive rapport with students. Teaching for the Inclusive Classroom Helping all students to feel welcome and to be successful are primary roles of any instructor at Ohio State.

Section II-C Professional Developmen t Teachers: The Parkway Professional Development Model for teachers is built on three premises. First, professional development must occur at every stage of teachers’ careers, from induction to retirement. Second, professional development can support the basic expectation that every student deserves competent, professional teachers. Third, professional development can allow for some teachers to extend beyond excellence in the classroom to make a commitment that influences the profession at large. The Professional Development Plan in Parkway is designed to help faculty members meet five teaching standards. These are: Teachers are committed to students and their learning. Teachers know the subjects they teach and how to teach those subjects to students. Teachers are responsible for managing and monitoring student learning. Teachers think systemically about their practice and learn from experience.

Students from 20 different campuses were selected for their innovative efforts that improved the lives of individuals, or the community at large in at least one of the following areas: social justice, social, economic, health, public safety, or environmental issues during the last year. The CSU Office of the Chancellor and the systemwide Office of Service Learning created the STARS award last year. "The STARS award recipients are student leaders at the California State University and exemplify our students' dedication to community service," said CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed. "They have raised awareness on issues facing the elderly and disabled, promoted sustainable agriculture, tutored children, and provided over 10,000 hours of community service within the past year." More than 135,000 CSU students systemwide perform a total of 33.6 million hours of community service annually. That would be a minimum wage value of approximately $193.2 million.

University School Calendars USNA Office Phone: 615.321.8019 info@usn.org USN HOME Middle School Learning Information Parents have a significant impact on students’ acquisition of healthy and independent learning and study skills. They do so by encouraging students to identify learning styles which are most personally effective, by helping them to set and achieve goals, by talking with them about active listening in class, and by helping them develop good organization, note taking and preparation strategies. It is detrimental for parents to do their child's work, to repeatedly bring things to school because he or she forgets, or to make comments like "I was like that in school too," or "I didn't like history either." As part of the homework routine, parents have an ongoing opportunity to encourage their children to become skilled learners who become increasingly responsible for their own learning, in school and elsewhere. The National Association of Secondary School Principals has published a pamphlet called "The Parent's Guide to Learning and Study Skills." A copy is available for you in the Middle School Counseling and Resources Office. Below are some of the suggestions they offer as well as a few from Dr. Mel Levine's book Educational Care (also available on loan in the Middle School Counseling and Resources Office):

"Three principles from brain research: emotional safety, appropriate challenges, and self constructed meaning suggest that a one-size-fits-all approach to classroom instruction teaching is ineffective for most students and harmful to some." Differentiated Classrooms Carol Ann Tomlinson Nov. 1998 Educational Leadership - How the Brain Works Educational Leadership Index ... The Brain and Learning " No two children are alike. An enriched environment for one is not necessarily enriched for another. " No two children learn in the identical way. In the classroom we should teach children to think for themselves. One way is to group children so they are talking to each other, they are asking questions of each other, they are learning to be teachers. One of the most important concepts for a 5 year old to know is that he or she can teach because you have to understand something to teach it." Marian Diamonds: Professor of Neuroanatomy at Berkeley "So our environment, including the classroom environment, is not a neutral place. We educators are either growing dendrites or letting them wither and die. The trick is to determine what constitutes an enriched environment. A few facts about the brain's natural proclivities will assist us in making these determinations:

Links to Resources On-line Interaction Types of Interaction We can distiguish between three types of interaction that lead to learning: learner-content interaction; learner-instructor interaction; and learner-learner interaction. The first type of interaction is interaction between the learner and the content or subject of study. This is where learners "talk to themselves" about the information and ideas they encounter in a book, television program, lecture or elsewhere. Some learning programs are solely content-interactive in nature. An example is self-directed learning using a textbook and study guide. The third form of interaction is learner-learner interaction, between one learner and other learners, alone or in group settings, with or without the presence of an instructor. Through interaction with their peers students consolidate their ideas, test hypotheses, and confirm opinions and attitudes. At the point of application and evaluation of learning, the availability of a group of fellow learners becomes valuable for learner and instructor alike.
