3. Teachers: The Major Players in the Education Process]]> 2018-03-07 04:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/smhf43/9hniwka7l9eg/wish/238996935 smhf43 https://padlet.com/smhf43/9hniwka7l9eg/wish/238997792 -Visible Learning Inside
Key Points:
-The "visible" aspect to teachers, and the difference between assuming student success versus the visible impact teachers have on their students.
-Effect Size
Key Points:  Almost any intervention can make a difference to learning; this method is useful for comparing countless results.
-Outcomes of Schooling
Key Points: Students decide at an early age whether or not to stay in school. The longer they remain in school, they are guaranteed a larger salary.

Key Points: There are two major types of effect size: comparisons between groups, and comparisons over time.
-These studies suggested that the most important questions that now needed to be addressed and reduced other questions to being of lesser importance.
-Secondary students, perhaps, were less likely to be distracted while doing homework and more likely to have been taught effective study habits, and have better self-regulation and monitoring of their work and and time investment.
The Barometer and Hinge-Point
Key Points: The effects of homework (0.40 hinge-point data) ranked 88th out of all of the 138 influences. When you look at the distribution of all 50,000-plus effect sizes, almost everything works. The 0.40 hinge-point is also important because it is close to the average effect that we can expect from a whole year's schooling, as well as a benchmark tool for teachers to assess their influence on achievement.
The Story
Key Points: Visible teaching occurs when learning is "...Explicit and the transparent goal, when it is appropriately challenging, and when the teacher and the student determine how and to what degree the goal is attained.  Passion is a key ingredient in education, and when willingness to be involved in the deliberate practices is evident, the outcome becomes greater for both the student and the teacher.  
-The teacher must ultimately know when learning is occurring or not, know when to experiment, monitor, give feedback, and learn when to provide alternative learning strategies.

Key Points: Passionate instructors place high value on having major positive effects on all students and their achievement. 
-Expert teachers can identify the most important ways to represent the subject that they teach; they can relate current lesson content to other subject knowledge with students' prior knowledge and combine those lessons according to the students' needs. 
-Creating an "optimal classroom climate for learning" is crucial, as it generates an atmosphere of trust.
-Expert teachers monitor learning and provide feedback. Teachers can gain insight to when students are engaged, and when they need more time to develop.
-Expert teachers believe that all students can reach the success criteria. All effective teachers have a passion for their subject
Visible Learning - The major theme underlying the five dimensions of expert teachers discussed is that they are about the impact that teachers have- and not about teachers' personal or personality attributes. Being able to react to every situation, every student, and every moment. ]]> 2018-03-07 05:04:56 UTC https://padlet.com/smhf43/9hniwka7l9eg/wish/239000144 smhf43 https://padlet.com/smhf43/9hniwka7l9eg/wish/239210696 Hattie, J.
