  1. Educ 326 Thursday, Feb 11

  2. My Approach/View/Bias to Designing this Course • The Most Powerful Learning is Experiential • Project-Based Learning Engages and Motivates learners while offering lots of different opportunities to learn material and express knowledge and skills • Service Learning helps students “transfer” and apply what they have learned as well as giving reason for learning

  3. Thus – Field Experience is KEY • First third of semester prepares your for the second two thirds– FIELD EXPERIENCE • Planning, implementing and evaluating your OWN science unit with a teaching partner and cooperating teacher • We meet as a class until Feb 28– then we stop meeting on campus as you begin teaching twice a week while I support and observe as you teach until Dec. 15!

  4. Building on the Past • Cooperating teachers are my PARTNERS and most have worked with me (and my students) many times! • They are eager to work with and make you a part of their classroom • Many are Carthage grads • They have high expectations!

  5. Project-Based – Challenges and Benefits • It’s experiential -- not just the teaching but also the planning, collaborating, and “bending at the knees” • Engages the students – gets them actively involved, there is an “arc” – beginning, middle and end – which is gratifying; AND there is a purpose for learning activities • Learning from “failure” – looking for successes in handling difficulties and the unexpected

  6. Service Learning Projects • A teaching and learning method that upholds a commitment to appreciating the assets of and serving the needs of a community partner while enhancing student learning and academic rigor through the practice of intentional reflective thinking and responsible civic action.

  7. Projects Can Involve Partners • Projects can end • RMS • St. Mary’s • Jefferson Lighthouse • Projects can blew up in your face • Projects evolve – the most gratifying and fun of all!

  8. Collaborative Service Projects • All work to help provide learning experiences FOR YOU AND • Service by fulfilling needs for our community

  9. Let’s Get Started • First draft of field experience assignments – more information on Thursday! • Beginning your Essential Science for Teachers Project
