Final Reflection Photo Essay by Ashley Lau https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6 Ashley's learning experience from EDSE 457 en-us 2020-12-15 00:52:27 UTC 2024-05-28 02:35:22 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f436.png Self-reflection of time spent tutoring an English Learner. ashleylaumted301 https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018454852 During my time tutoring a student one-on-one, I was able to tap into her funds of knowledge (Moll, Amanti, Neff & Gonzalez, 1992) and incorporate them into our time together. I learned about how visuals (Echevarría, 2018, p.19) can aid a student's learning and make connections easier. Students can also learn a lot more when the material is scaffolded and taught at a slower pace (Echevarría, 2018, p.131). Students also like to have manipulations to work with, so something like categorizing terms (Echevarría, 2018, p.84) is great for students to visually see and work with.]]> 2020-12-15 01:15:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018454852 Ways to incorporate my own Funds of Knowledge into my future occupation. ashleylaumted301 https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018455383 Funds of knowledge (Moll, Amanti, Neff & Gonzalez, 1992) is important to include in our teachings, but they can also inform our teaching styles as needed. Much of a teacher's focus is incorporating our students' funds of knowledge into the classroom, but this can also be done in from teacher's perspective. I have spent time thinking about how my own funds of knowledge can inform my teaching and they are listed below.]]> 2020-12-15 01:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018455383 Page from a handout designed for a Geometry class. ashleylaumted301 https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018455995 This example problem includes an item that many students should be familiar with. There are spaces for students to include key terminology (Brozo, 2017, p. 148), which is provided below the picture in case they do not know how to spell it. On the right side is a picture of an area that is taken directly from the soda can so that students can transfer their knowledge to a real-life object. Below the area, is space for students to take notes (Brozo, 2017, pp.352-353) and record their work.]]> 2020-12-15 01:16:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018455995 Project-Based Learning presentation example for an improvement plan. ashleylaumted301 https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018457548 This poster is an example of what project-based learning (Person, 2009; What is Linked Learning, 2019) can look like, so students get practice and exposure of what a scientific poster would include. It is important for content subjects to create assessments that include more than one subject, because this allows students to see the connections that each subject has to another subject. Students also get to experience what some occupations may do on the daily to see if that occupation is something they may be interested in. ]]> 2020-12-15 01:16:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018457548 Various strategies that can be incorporated into the classroom to increase literacy skills. ashleylaumted301 https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018458193 Each week, strategies that were discussed were recorded in our weekly literacy reflection. I particularly liked the strategies in week 5 and 6; and, I have included some of these strategies in some lesson plans I have designed for this semester. Many of the strategies include students creating or writing something to share with others aside from the teacher. When students get to share their work and see other students' work, they are more motivated and more engaged in the activity they are doing (Echevarría, 2018, p.176).]]> 2020-12-15 01:17:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018458193 References: ashleylaumted301 https://padlet.com/ashleylaumted301/jez91vh0dfgvy1r6/wish/1018563370 Brozo, W.
