Teacher Training: Learning to Be Instigators of Thought™ Through a Process Aligned with Inspired Teaching's Educational Phil
Transforming education through innovation teacher training Teacher Training: Learning to be Instigators of Thought™ Through a process aligned with Inspired Teaching’s educational philosophy – which engages participants intellectually, physically, and emotionally - Inspired Teaching trains teachers to design and implement rigorous, student-centered lessons and activities that meet student needs and academic standards, including the Common Core State Standards. Like the teaching process itself, our teacher training is complex and allows for customization to meet the specific needs of each teacher. This audience-sensitivity creates a permanent shift in teachers’ thinking about their jobs and is one of the key reasons our process is so effective. Inspired Teaching’s Five Step Process for Teacher Education Each teacher navigates the following process: Step 1. Analyze and deepen my understanding of the ways I learn through a rigorous examination of the teaching and learning process, including my including my own experiences as a child and adult learner. Step 2. Articulate and defend my philosophy of teaching and learning , including what I believe about children. Challenge myself to listen to and consider other points of view and to find room in my philosophy for an appreciation of children's natural curiosity and innate desire to learn. Step 3. Make the connection to classroom practice , analyzing my current instructional strategies and whether they support my philosophy, so that I can explore and develop new ways to make sure what I do in the classroom matches my philosophy of teaching and learning. Step 4. Build the skills of effective teachers , including active listening, asking questions that will spark students' intellect and imaginations, observing to assess for student understanding, and communicating effectively. -

Cognition, Affect, and Learning —The Role of Emotions in Learning
How People Learn: Cognition, Affect, and Learning —The Role of Emotions in Learning Barry Kort Ph.D. and Robert Reilly Ed.D. {kort, reilly}@media.mit.edu formerly MIT Media Lab Draft as of date January 2, 2019 Learning is the quintessential emotional experience. Our species, Homo Sapiens, are the beings who think. We are also the beings who learn, and the beings who simultaneously experience a rich spectrum of affective emotional states, including a selected suite of emotional states specifically and directly related to learning. This proposal reviews previously published research and theoretical models relating emotions to learning and cognition and presents ideas and proposals for extending that research and reducing it to practice. Our perspective The concept of affect in learning (i.e., emotions in learning) is the same pedagogy applied by an athletic coach at a sporting event. A coach recognizes the affective state of an athlete, and, for example, exhorts that athlete toward increased performance (e.g., raises the level of enthusiasm), or, redirects a frustrated athlete to a productive affective state (e.g., instills confidence, or pride). A coach recognizes that an athlete’s affective state is a critical factor during performance; and, when appropriate, a coach will intervene with a meaningful strategy or tactic. Athletic coaches are skilled at recognizing affective states and intervening appropriately. Educators can have the same impact on a learner by understanding a learner’s affective state and intervening with appropriate strategies or tactics that will meaningfully manage and guide a person’s learning journey. There are several learning theories and a great deal of neuroscience/affective research. -

Strategies to Solve Unfinished Learning: Expanded Learning Time
Targeted Intensive Tutoring Expanded Learning Time The Importance of Strong Relationships ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: These materials are the result of a collaborative effort between The Education Trust and MDRC staff, including Kayla Patrick, senior P-12 policy analyst (Ed Trust), and Allison Socol, Ph.D., assistant director of P-12 Policy (Ed Trust), Jean B. Grossman, Ph.D., Senior Fellow (MDRC), and Miki Bairstow Shih, technical research analyst (MDRC). STRATEGIES TO SOLVE UNFINISHED LEARNING TO SOLVE STRATEGIES MARCH 2021 Strategies to Solve UNFINISHED LEARNING WHEN THE PANDEMIC FORCED SCHOOLS ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO CLOSE THEIR DOORS IN MARCH 2020, many district and school leaders worked quickly to plan for and address students’ “unfinished learning.”1 How would they support students who had been exposed to content, but had not yet had a chance to master it? A recent study indicated that students, on average, could experience up to five to nine months of unfinished learning by the end of June 2021. But it will be sometime before we know the true amount of unfinished learning caused by schools closing their doors. What is certain, however, is that as the nation continues to battle this pandemic and at-home learning continues, there will be a need to help students, especially the nation’s most vulnerable students, complete unfinished learning for weeks, months, and even years to come. The lack of adequate time for districts to prepare for sudden shutdowns as well as the lack of resources for many districts, especially those that are chronically underfunded, to adjust to virtual learning has exacerbated inequities for Black, Latino, and Native students and students from low- income backgrounds. -
Interdisciplinary Learning: Ambitious Learning for an Increasingly Complex World
Interdisciplinary Learning: ambitious learning for an increasingly complex world A thought paper from Education Scotland, NoTosh and a Co-Design team from across Scotland Introduction Overview COVID-19 What is IDL? Key challenges and suggestions The whole person - knowledge, skills and wellbeing Lifelong breadth in learning Learning with purpose, with partners Suggestions IDL is Learning More than just “engagement”: deep thinking and deep learning Collaborative learning, teacher coaches Shared goals, not dictated goals Suggestions Realising ambition, embracing opportunities and building confidence Challenge realises ambitious learning, opens opportunities Build confidence through a shared language Suggestions: References Participants in the Co-design Team Introduction Overview Despite being at the heart of Scotland’s Curriculum of Excellence (CfE), interdisciplinary learning (IDL) has not yet become a habitual learning approach in all of Scotland’s schools. It exists, and it is a way of thinking and learning that can have a significant impact on improving student engagement and performance, but its application and quality is inconsistent. There are still questions for many educators about what it is, what it isn’t, how to plan it effectively with colleagues, and where in the learning process it should come. The Refreshed Narrative on Scotland’s Curriculum was launched in September 2019. It aims to ● celebrate the successes of CfE and build confidence for future development; ● maximise and develop opportunities to meet the aspirations of our learners; ● stimulate fresh thinking about Scotland's curriculum; ● engage in professional dialogue in curriculum design and inspire, share and nurture innovation. Interdisciplinary Learning (IDL) is a vital component to achieve all four of these, and needs a concerted effort from everyone in the profession to understand what it is, and how to engage with the planning, pedagogy and mindset that will open up greater opportunities for learners. -
Pharmacy Employment Interviewing How to Present Yourself and Your Qualifications Skillfully
Pharmacy Employment Interviewing How to present yourself and your qualifications skillfully In This Guide: A. The interview format B. How to prepare for the interview: Four good ideas C. What employers want to know: Responding effectively to interview questions D. The six most common questions about answering questions well E. Ending & after the interview A. The Interview Format UCSF students have shared that the format of their interview varied: They sometimes just met the district hiring manager, and also interviewed with a pharmacist. Usually, these were 1:1 interviews, rather than panels. In general: • Community pharmacy: Interviews usually involve an initial brief, 15 -20 minute phone interview, that can lead to an in person hour-long interview with a pharmacy recruiter or manager. • Hospital pharmacy, managed care & pharmaceutical pharmacy: Interviews also vary and often involve a screening phone interview that, if successful, can lead to an in person interview with your direct supervisor. The interview can range between 45 minutes to an hour. • Helpful Hint: When an employer calls to arrange an interview, it is fair to ask, “May I ask what the interview format will be so I can prepare?” You can ask about the length, the format and the names of individuals you will meet. B. Preparing for the Interview: Four good ideas Very few people can “wing” an interview successfully. Interviewing well is a skill that often requires both preparation and practice. It’s challenging to find the time to prep for an interview between classes, student group activities, as well as, the actual job search. However, UCSF students said that prepping for between 3-10 hours paid off in long run. -

Problem Solving Method
Department of Education, Patna University Course No‐C.C8 Unit‐2, Learner Centred Instructional Techniques/Methods : E content by : Swarnika Pallavi Research Scholar P.G. Department of Education P.U. Problem Solving Method Objective : After going through this topic, students will be able to : Understand the concept of Problem Solving Method Analyse the process of Problem Solving Method Content Introduction Meaning Objectives Steps Teacher’s Role Advantage Disadvantage Introduction Problem-solving skills are necessary in all areas of life, and classroom problem solving activities can be a great way to get students prepped and ready to solve real problems in real life scenarios. Whether in school, work or in their social relationships, the ability to critically analyze a problem, map out all its elements and then prepare a workable solution is one of the most valuable skills one can acquire in life. Educating your students about problem solving skills from an early age in school can be facilitated through classroom problem solving activities. Such endeavors encourage cognitive as well as social development, and can equip students with the tools they’ll need to address and solve problems throughout the rest of their lives. Meaning A problem is a task for which Problem–solving may be a purely mental difficulty or it may be physical and involve manipulation of data. , the person confronting it wants or needs to find a solution because the person has no readily available procedure for finding the solution. The person must make an attempt to find a solution. Problem solving is the act of defining a problem; determining the cause of the problem; identifying, prioritizing and selecting alternatives for a solution; and implementing a solution.
