"What is Social Studies?" - video

 

 

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.

Marazono's 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.”

Rules and Procedure

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.

*Tips For Classroom Management -

 

*Build Community

*Design a Safe, Friendly, and Well-Managed Classroom Environment

*Include Students in Creating Rules, Norms, Routines, and Consequences

*Always Be Calm, Fair, and Consistent

*Know the Students You Teach

*Address Conflict Quickly and Wisely

*Integrate Positive Classroom Rituals

*Partner with Parents and Guardians

*Classroom Exercise
