After completing each module, practitioners can fill out a self-evaluation and checklist to assess their understanding of the topic. The most helpful sections of the module are Teaching Functions and Academic Monitoring The Standards for Effective Pedagogy and Learning were established through an extensive analysis of the research and development literature in education and diversity. The Standards represent recommendations on which the literature is in agreement, across all cultural, racial, and linguistic groups in the United States, all age levels, and all subject matters. Thus, they express the principles of effective pedagogy for all students. Even for mainstream students, the Standards describe the ideal conditions for instruction; for students at risk of educational failure, effective classroom implementation of the Standards is vital.

Extractions: Dean of the Indiana University School of Education in Bloomington, IN In a February 1 (2001) column, George Will blamed poor teacher training for the plight of education in out nations schools. What is the point of putting more teachers in the classrooms, he asks, if students will merely be taught by inadequately trained teachers? A good teacher, he asserts, needs training only in his or her subject matter, and a degree in education is needless and possibly even detrimental. At Indiana University, we take the education of teachers very seriously. Teachers must be skilled at teaching. They must be able to motivate their students to learn, to plan challenging and engaging lessons and to organize their curricula to ensure that students learn what they really need to know. Education students learn how to do this in their methods courses, through the use of instructional technology, in internships at schools, and through field-based courses in schools and community organizations.

"The newspaper is the most widely used of the media [as a teaching instrument in the classroom], the direct result of a national campaign by publishers, known as Newspapers in Education (NIE). Before the advent of NIE, newspapers tended to be used only by secondary school social studies teachers in two-week units or for Friday current events sessions. Now, however, newspapers are used throughout the school year in every area of the curriculum." Those are the word of Nola Kortner Aiex, author of Using Newspapers as Effective Teaching Tools . Indeed, the news is more a part of the school curriculum than it ever was for many reasons. Ten of the reasons teachers find newspapers such effective classroom teaching tools are detailed in the NIE feature "Why Use Newspapers?" which points out that newspapers are an adult medium that students of all ability levels can be proud to be seen reading.

Do you want to be a teacher? That's great! The United States will need more highly trained and dedicated new teachers in the next 10 years than ever before. Your sincere interest is a sign of hope for addressing the critical shortage of highly qualified educators. However, such an important and demanding profession deserves careful consideration. Consider where you would like to live. Teacher shortages vary by community, so consider the availability of job openings. Keep in mind local standards of living. Weigh your desired lifestyle against the salaries for beginning teachers in different regions. Consider the various local needs of children and communities. Familiarize yourself thoroughly with the certification requirements and process, exploring all the available routes and training programs available to you. And, perhaps most importantly, be sure to think carefully about what subjects or skills you would like to teach, and why you want to teach them to children and youth.

Extractions: home site map contact Back to Effective Strategies Professional Development Overview Recent research suggests that the quality of a teacher is the most important predictor of student success (Darling-Hammond, 1998). A Tennessee study (Haycock, 1998) discovered that low-achieving students increased their achievement level by as much as 53% when taught by a highly effective teacher. The sequence of teachers to which students were assigned also seemed to have an effect. Professional Development Is Needed McQueen (1999) states that four out of five teachers say they are not prepared to teach in today's schools. Almost one-third are teaching outside their subject area. "In 1998, the U.S. Department of Education found that fewer that 75% of America's teachers could be considered fully qualified (that is, have studied child development, learning, and teaching methods; hold a degree in their subject areas; and have passed state licensing requirements)" (Shargel and Smink, 2001, p. 143). The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS, 1999) identified five characteristics of high-quality teachers:

Policy - Graduate Students in Industry The Graduate Advisor The Graduate Advisor is a faculty member nominated by the Department Chair and appointed by the Dean of the Graduate Division-who acts on behalf of the Graduate Council. In most departments, the Graduate Advisor counsels enrolled students, leads recruitment and admission selection efforts, and guides decision-making concerning fellowship nominations and allocation of funding for academic appointments. The Graduate Advisor provides an important nexus between the Graduate Division and students. Graduate Advisors foster efforts to provide a supportive and enriching climate for students in the department. They encourage student involvement in departmental matters as appropriate, including service on committees open to graduate student representation. Graduate Advisors also help ensure that departmental norms, expectations, and requirements are clearly communicated to students. Departments use meetings, handbooks, and electronic mail as effective means of communication with their graduate students.

http://www-ctd.ucsd.edu/programs/pfpf/

Extractions: The university teaching assistant (TA) experience is the major avenue for the training of the future professoriate. However, too often it involves training in leading small-group discussion sections or assisting an instructor with grading or other specific tasks related to the instructor's class, but does not provide an opportunity for the graduate TA to design and present his/her own class, nor does it provide actual preparation for the many and varied roles of the academic scholars. This program is designed to provide an opportunity for graduate students in Physics to explore many of the issues involved in college and university teaching and to develop the competencies required of effective college instructors. In addition to developing experience and expertise in college teaching, participants will be introduced to a wide range of faculty responsibilities. This approach to the training of college instructors is based on classroom experience and feedback from experienced teachers in a variety of institutional settings, supplemented by research and theories of how people learn and process information.

http://www.parenting.com/parenting/article/article_general/0,8266,3747,00.html

Extractions: By Linda Henry Those tiny, pudgy toes can be an effective teaching tool. You can start playing this game when your infant's 6 months old, suggests Jaime Goldfarb, Ph.D., creator of the Brilliant Beginnings line of kits and guidebooks. The gentle tugging teaches body awareness (Hey, there are toes at the end of my feet!), and the tickling feels great; and as your baby grows, you boost her memory skills every time you repeat the lines and motions. A parent asks, "How big are you?" and the child answers by lifting his arms up in the air. Maybe this game was invented as a ploy to make it easier to change a baby's shirt. But aside from this practical benefit, the game's predictability helps build trust and teaches kids how to take turns, says Karen E. Smith, Ph.D., professor of pediatrics at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. At first, you'll have to move your child's arms for him and feed him his line, but eventually he'll begin to understand the meaning behind the gestures. It's a sweet moment when your baby first delights in peekaboo: You hide your face behind a blanket and then reveal that you're still there! Although a 5-month-old may be less than impressed, your 9-month-old will giggle and coo. Thanks to the changes in her brain, she now grasps the concept of "object permanence," the idea that people and objects exist even when she can't see them. This epiphany is what makes peekaboo so appealing, says Goldfarb. You can also make a funny face as you say "peekaboo," and she's more likely to imitate you, a sign of social development.

http://www.ksu.edu/psych/graduate_teach.htm

Extractions: Feedback K-State Department of Psychology Graduate Program: Teaching Apprenticeship Program Rationale Teaching represents a major segment of the responsibilities given to faculty members at colleges and universities. Yet, most Ph.D.-granting departments fail to provide their graduate students with structured, supervised teaching experience. For example, many graduate students serve as teaching assistants for other faculty, but these experiences often involve little actual teaching. Our program provides graduate students with supervised training in college teaching, and should be considered as a supplement to our current Ph.D. programs. Goals During the course of the program, graduate students are given opportunities to develop effective teaching skills. This is accomplished by taking a course in college teaching, being the instructor for a small General Psychology course, and teaching a second course that is either an additional (usually larger) General Psychology course or a course specific to the student's area of study. In the latter two situations, direct supervision by a faculty member is included. Participation in this program allows our graduates to assume a college or university position and be ready to teach immediately.
