Story
As part of the requirements for the national and
state accreditation systems, the FSOE has adopted dispositional and
writing rubrics that evaluate “studenting” and
writing skills. Studenting skills include attendance,
attitude/advocacy, collaboration, content, fairness, feedback,
relationships, and reliability. Writing skills and
the ability to get along with others are essential to the development of
a professional educator. Students will be evaluated twice
during the semester based on the rubrics included within the FSOE
website and education syllabi. If a student receives
a score of one on any rubric element at midterm, the student will meet
with his/her instructor and advisor to develop an improvement plan.
If a score of one is received at the end of the semester on any
rubric element, the student will meet with the area chair to discuss
additional support options.

Webinar - The Highly Engaged Classroom | Presented by Margaret
McInteer
Novice and veteran teachers alike are always challenged with the goal of
keeping students engaged. This webinar, based on the book of the same
title, will review the research on classroom engagement and then provide
perspectives and strategies to help teacher meet these challenges. The
book, thus the Webinar, organizes the complex topic of engagement into
four critical areas:
- Student emotions (How do I feel/)
- Student interest (Am I interested?)
- Student perceptions of importance (Is this important?)
- Student perceptions of efficacy (Can I do this?)
Specific recommendations and resources will be offered in each of the
four areas. These will include strategies that could be applied
immediately as well as strategies that, when used over time, contribute
to the development of “highly engaged classrooms.” |

Teachers need to distinguish between rules and
procedures. There should be
less than 5 rules in a classroom which govern
behavior (e.g. respect others).
There can be many procedures (e.g. passing papers, using computers, turning
in homework) which should be taught as the need arises.
All rules and procedures should be reviewed throughout the year.
We
all forget sometimes. The review is as much for the teacher as it is for the students.
