Education

As classroom leaders, teachers have many opportunities to encourage everyone to respect people of all backgrounds and abilities, and promote a positive classroom environment that supports learning and decreases disruptive behavior. Teachers should reflect on their own values and beliefs in order to understand any underlying effects these beliefs may have on their instruction and interaction styles with students. Such awareness can help teachers be more objective, have more empathy and understanding of others, and set the tone for a respectful and cooperative learning environment. Prepare a 750-1,000 word reflective essay on the topic of diversity and learning environments. Within your essay, address the following: Describe personal frames of reference regarding cultural, linguistic, and gender differences. Reflect upon how your personal background and frames of reference can, however unintentionally, create bias in your relationships with students and families, how you design instruction, and the classroom environment you promote. Describe specific ways to decrease potential bias in your classroom, including ways to incorporate your students’ abilities, interests, and cultural and linguistic backgrounds into the learning environment. Review the “Integration of Faith and Work at GCU.” Using this as a guide, discuss how Christian values align with establishing a multicultural classroom that demonstrates and teaches how to respect people of all backgrounds and abilities. Support your essay with 3-5 scholarly resources, including the “Integration of Faith and Work at GCU” article. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required. This assignment uses a grading rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion. You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite.

This week, you learned about the dynamics of organizational change. You learned that it can be planned or unplanned; it can begin inside or outside the organization; it can be symbolic or transformative.The purchase of a new learning management system (LMS) is a common occurrence in higher education today. The LMS provides the infrastructure and technology for all distance learning offerings—and many traditional classroom-based courses—so it is an event that can turn an entire institution upside down! The following scenario will give you the opportunity to apply your knowledge of change management in a real-world situation.Scenario:You are the director of distance learning at Hybrid University. The technology of distance learning is changing rapidly, and the university is considering the purchase of a new LMS. Faculty and staff will use the new system to design and deliver online courses. It has taken Hybrid University employees almost 5 years to become comfortable with the current system, the first and only one that many of them have ever used, so they are feeling a great deal of anxiety about the pending purchase. Your supervisor, the vice president for instruction, has scheduled a training session for midlevel administrators. He has asked you to lead it. The purpose of the session is to assuage some of their fears and minimize resistance to the change.

In this assignment you are replying to a discussion board post below. The originality verification needs to be less than 17%. You are to cite all references you use. You do not have to write the assignment like a formal paper, it is a discussion board post, similar to a forum. With that being said, please give educated and proper responses as to why you agree or disagree with the post.  The reply needs to be in 2 – 3 strong paragraphs.   Discussion Board Post:   The instructional strategy that I use the most is chunking. I find that I have to break up my learning process due to work requirements, walking the dog, working out or simply needing to take a moment to think through what I’ve just read or learned and how I can apply that personally. I use that time to connect my new knowledge to my prior knowledge so I can see how it all fits together. According to Driscoll’s textbook, The Psychology of Learning for Instruction, chunking “may be as simple as breaking complex tasks into manageable steps… or presenting discrete bits of information to be studied and practiced.” My focus is on adult learners in the workplace environment. The instructional strategy that works very well in a work environment is concept mapping. When you gather a group of professionals to brainstorm and work out issues or new ideas, so many great things can happen with everyone feeding off of each other. Adults want to share their knowledge and experience. There is value in that. Concept mapping allows for those discussions to produce innovations and resolve issues with input from all. As a middle age adult, I find myself resistant in many circumstances to learning something new. I want to see it proven before I try it. Or, sometimes I feel that I’ve done it a certain “old school” way for so many years, and it has all worked out just fine…why change it? Why fix it? It is harder for adults to learn new technologies because they have to connect this new knowledge to prior learning. And sometimes there just isn’t the accessible understanding in the long term memory bank with which to connect it. This makes gaps. Gaps create problems in learning. Motivation and purpose are helpful to overcoming the resistance to learning new technologies. Adults need to understand the benefit in order to become motivated. According to the ARCS model, both enhancing relevance and generating satisfaction will be key motivators (Driscoll, 2005). Internet accessibility tends to widen the knowledge gap between economic groups within the US. As an Admission Advisor for AIU, I work with many potential students who don’t have access to a reliable computer and internet. About fifty percent of all the people I speak with on a daily basis fall into that category. It puts them at a significant disadvantage because they don’t have a way to learn the necessary skills to do a web search, type a paper or post to the discussion board. For those of us who have become confident with technology, we take those things for granted. There have been many times that I’ve had to help someone figure out how to search for the school website and navigate through that. A process that most of us would determine to be quite basic and automatic. Almost everyone these days has a cell phone. The majority of those are smart phones. Smart phones can be a viable technology tool that helps someone to learn different technology strategies in a convenient hand held manner. Portable network devices are very important to adult learners who are typically working outside the home and are juggling several different responsibilities. Having access to your virtual campus on your phone or a tablet is much more convenient than carrying around a laptop. Example: a student is working full time at a factory for the swing shift; this student would be able to use their dinner hour or break time to post to the discussion board or access their reading material from that portable device. It allows them to keep in step and up to date with assignments in a much easier fashion.   References Driscoll, M.P. (2005). Psychology of learning for instruction. (3rd ed).

DO YOUR HOMEWORK Don’t rush to submit your application. As you complete your application, spend some time understanding TFA’s vision and how we aim to accomplish it. Doing this background reading will allow you to see the role you can have in our work. Consider putting yourself into the position of a corps member and think about the classroom community you hope to create for students, or consider how serving as a corps member fits into your broader career goals. You may also want to share why you are compelled to fight for educational equity through TFA.  2. HELP US GET TO KNOW YOUR “WHY” This section of your application helps us learn about who you are beyond your resume. Why are you drawn to TFA? What experiences in your life make you want to teach? What dimensions of your personal story will you bring with you to the classroom? What strengths will you leverage to create impact with your students? You don’t need teaching experience to apply to TFA or to answer these questions. This is an opportunity to show us your authentic self. 3. CREATE AN OUTLINE BEFORE DRAFTING As the application says, your responses should be about 300 words each—or about half a page, single-spaced, if you’re typing in a Word document. This relatively short length requires you to be concise and intentional in your writing. Rely on the lessons you’ve learned in your own college writing courses. You may find it helpful to outline your responses with your key bullet points before you start drafting.  4. HAVE A PEER REVIEW YOUR WORK BEFORE SUBMITTING As with any written response, it’s best to have a peer read your response to check for clarity.* If that’s not possible, make sure to read aloud your responses a few times. Writing editing tools like Grammarly, ProWriterAid, and the Hemingway app can help you double-check your grammar and fix any typos.
