Assumptions to guide the design of learning
- Experts have deep conceptual knowledge
This is for teachers because as teachers we do this everyday as we have knowledge in one topic or subject and pass it along to our students as even if there is a topic that is not certain on we must get information and and facts to be familiar with topics be an expert in that topic.
-Learning comes from the learner
I had a placement teacher that always told me I have the best lessons when the topic makes me learn from the students. She said when she has an assignment she always wrights down at the beginning of the page "what I already knew about this topic" and on the bottom of the page "what I learned about your topic"
-Schools must create effective learning environments
Most of the schools I went to are very connection to the students. My favorite is when teachers put artwork of what students do in the classroom as they are all over the halls. I saw my kindergarten students always show me all the fun things that they created as they would do every time they put something new. My teachers would tell her students to make the best artwork because the whole school will see it,
-Prior Knowledge and beliefs are key
This goes with the same when the learning comes from the learner. Kids do have knowledge to there own lifestyle and it is important to ask them before reading a book or any assignment a lot of kids have a story behind it, I have noticed this even with my own placement I would bring up for example a farm and then 10 kids say they all have something to do with a farm, but it does get them engaged.
-Reflection is necessary to develop deep conceptual knowledge
At my placement they have a skit that represents the topic and there are three groups that all script and the kids have to memorize there lines and show that they know about the topic and if they need help learning a part of the topic.
My cooperation teacher would always teach me to make a schedule that you follow every day so they have a pattern and they feel like they are in charge of what goes on in the day. She said sometimes she through curve balls in there so they can see that changes are good and keeps them thinking.
Collaboration is huge.. you need to communicate with other teachers to work together. I am taking a class now that is a collaboration class just focused for teachers.

Module 4
Mod 4!
First concept is Classroom management. Every Teacher needs to have a management system with a scheduled or rules. As the Video was a great reference for teachers to see steps to become a teacher with a management system. I was really focus as they were listing each of the ways for management I found my self taking notes. I Love when she said "telling me to get in trouble or get them out of trouble" I feel that to be a respectable way to say I do not want hear it. Also Hand signals because I Know Sign language and sometimes I do speak sign with out me knowing. I would use the bathroom one or maybe use the sign "water" if they want to go get a drink. This could be use for GED or Sped classes as they would work for anyone as it is fun to use as it would be just for having a question or answer with your hand raised. I like the misery student as they can you focus on them and every student would want to make sure they are always on the same page.
Having a Reinforcement in a classroom is very important as in the book it mentions with consequences as Behavior -------> Reinforce has of the Effect to Strengthen or repeated behavior. In the book it mentions Kinds of Reinforcement and Punishment on page 269 you can see there is picture that is a great example of each and ways it works. As there are different ways to view behavior..
Contingency Contracts -> A contract between the teacher and a student specifying what a student must do to earn a particular reward or privilege. Example ~ In a observation the teacher had all her students go to a wall where they had to write by there name a goal that they want to accomplish by the end of the day and then when they pick about 3 rewards if they succeed 1) More Free time 2) One of the homework to be waved. 3) Extra Gym or recess time at the end of the week. This was for a kindergarten Special Education class so it was much harder for each student to work on that goal.
Token Reinforcement System-> System in witch tokens earned for academic work and positive classroom behavior can be exchanged for some desired reward. Example- a lot of teacher do this one as they would use maybe sticks or marbles and if they fill the glass or have about 50 sticks they get a prize to either toy or extra free time
Bulling is a big thing as starting as a young age all the way to adults- I know some people think that being a bully to someone is only face to face but in the book there is 6.. Physical, Verbal, Social/Relational, Cyber (Online), Identity (Racial, Religion, Disability) and Sexual (Male or Female). I know everyone has experienced at least as one of the ones I have mentioned. Just reading the statics on page 533 is so sad. I feel like all schools say the have a "Zero Tolerance rule" but I feel like there is no way there a school can prevent a whole student body. The most they can do is spread it was words and posters. I could keep going when it comes to bulling. Table 13.6 has good points about The Ideas for dealing with cyber bulling.
