Constructivism (learning theory) Jean Piaget: founder of Constructivism In past centuries, constructivist ideas were not widely valued due to the perception that children's play was seen as aimless and of little importance. Jean Piaget did not agree with these traditional views, however. He saw play as an important and necessary part of the student's cognitive development and provided scientific evidence for his views. For more detailed information on the philosophy of the construction of human knowledge, see constructivist epistemology. Formalization of the theory of constructivism is generally attributed to Jean Piaget, who articulated mechanisms by which knowledge is internalized by learners. When individuals assimilate, they incorporate the new experience into an already existing framework without changing that framework. According to the theory, accommodation is the process of reframing one's mental representation of the external world to fit new experiences. A few strategies for cooperative learning include

44 FREE Lesson Plan Templates [Common Core, Preschool, Weekly] If you’re relatively new in the education field or are thinking about entering it then you probably have a vague idea about lesson plan. However, it is also likely that you don’t have a sound understanding of the aforementioned concept. If that is indeed the case then you probably want to find out what lesson plan actually is and what it encompasses. So what is a lesson plan? A framework for lesson, a lesson plan is the map every teacher needs. Lessons plans illustrate how teachers intend to conduct their classes, what they seek to achieve from it and how they intend to achieve what they seek. Often, detailed written plans are what trainee teachers are required to produce. Lesson Plan Templates Although they may require a less detailed plan, newly qualified teaches still require the plan to be fairly comprehensive. Basically, you’re like the driver of a bus and your students are its passengers. Lesson Plan Samples A well-written lesson plan is a well-though out document Objectives Closure
Definitions of Bloom's Taxonomy Activities at Various Cognitive Levels of Learning (LoL) Bloom’s taxonomy of learning objectives is used to define how well a skill or competency is learned or mastered. A fuller description of Bloom’s taxonomy is given in the following pages but a brief summary of the activities associated with each level is given below. At Knowledge Level of Learning a student can define terms At Comprehension Level of Learning a student can work assigned problems and can example what they did At Application Level of Learning a student recognizes what methods to used and then used the methods to solve problems At Analysis Level of Learning a student can explain why the solution process works At Synthesis Level of Learning a student can combine the part of a process in new and useful ways At Evaluation Level of Learning a student can create a variety of ways to solve the problem and then, based on established criteria, select the solution method best suited for the problem. What do I do at this level?
First Day : getting to know my students I’ve been teaching for a long, loooong time and one might expect I don’t have to suffer from first-class stress . But I’ve come to terms with myself and admitted that no matter how long I’ve been in the business , it is always going to feel like having a bull ( past the butterfly feeling) in my stomach. So again, I’m hunting books ,posts, and the Internet for ideas to use on the first day to get to know my students and to give them the first chance to use the language. These are the ones I’m considering – in case you want to use them. By the way, these are the ones I used last year if you want to have a look ♥Interviewing your partner: Tell students they are going to interview four or five people they don’t know in the class. ♥Get to Know you Bingo: this one requires a bit of preparation but it’s not like you are already loaded with exams , is it? ♥Who Am I..? ♥Five Questions. Hope you can use some of these ideas!!!

Top 20 Websites No Teacher Should Start the 2010-2011 Year Without I have to tell you that it was a tough call to make these decisions, especially when we’re talking every teacher no matter what grade level or subject, but I hope that you find a couple of gems to put away in your virtual treasure box. You may have others you’d like to add to the list. Please post them in the comments for all of us to explore. A great photo editing tool is a must for teachers and I recommend Aviary, LunaPic, Picnik, or BeFunky with some being simpler than others, but all having unique features. Creaza and Jaycut are answers to the Windows XP Movie Maker and Flipcam problem. Delicious or Diigo are online bookmarking networks teachers need. Doodle is a groovy scheduling tool teachers can use when setting up a collaborative work meeting or building social committee event. Dropbox is one of my absolute favorite tools shared with me by Intel Teach buddies Glen Westbrook and Jill Summers. Google Language Translator does a fairly decent job of language translation.
