Not exact matches
Administrators and teachers can also take advantage of the Report Card items to identify both individual students and
classrooms that
need additional help,
e.g., a
classroom in which a lot of students are receiving low scores on self - management skills is a
classroom in which the teacher
needs help in
classroom management.
Depending on your business
needs, the focus might be more on the
classroom, in - person training (
e.g. if you are a martial arts school or a driving instructor), or it might be more into the eLearning side of things (if you are like the average enterprise or educational institution).
Teachers
need support (
e.g., professional development) to use new literacies and technology in their
classrooms.
Teacher leaders charged with providing leadership to grade level, department or school - wide teams may also
need broader expertise, including knowledge of the
needs and interests of different constituents (
e.g., district staff, school administrators, and / or
classroom teachers).
In short, it appears from this small sample that teachers in schools where our observation measures indicated less ambitious instructional practices were more likely to externalize their
needs for instructional support (
e.g., resources, backup for
classroom management decisions) than to value support focused more directly on developing their instructional expertise.
In elementary schools, it is common for principals to create similar
classrooms (
e.g., with similar numbers of low - performing and special
needs students).
They will provide students an opportunity to choose between learning models that meet their individual
needs and stated goals,
e.g., traditional
classroom, Blended - Learning, online learning, college campus, etc..
Professional development
needs to be provided for teachers who may not be comfortable engaging their students using new technologies such as discussion boards in their
classrooms, in open discussions of difficult issues (
e.g., slavery), or in examining how the video portions of a VFT act as historical sources with values and perspectives from the present as well as the past.
Such early identification permits a prevention - oriented approach to service delivery by providing
needs assessment data of an entire population of students (
e.g.,
classroom, school, district) to determine how school - based resources can best be allocated to support at - risk students.
Additionally, while the benefits of instructional technology in the social studies
classroom have been reported by many researchers in the field (
e.g., Berson, 1996; Bolick, 2006; Friedman & Hicks, 2006; Manfra & Lee, 2012; Swan & Hofer, 2013; Waring, 2014; Waring & Bentley, 2012) and the
need for teacher preparation is critical, teachers often refer back to more familiar instructional practices (Lortie, 1975).
It has been widely recognized that in order to use technology effectively in their own
classrooms, preservice teachers
need to experience it in their professional preparation (
e.g., Moursund, 1999).
The wide range of studies conducted with the ISCCP datasets and the changing environment for accessing datasets over the Internet suggested the
need for the Web site to provide: 1) a larger variety of information about the project and its data products for a much wider variety of users [
e.g., people who may not use a particular ISCCP data product but could use some ancillary information (such as the map grid definition, topography, snow and ice cover)-RSB-; 2) more information about the main data products in several different forms (
e.g., illustrations of the cloud analysis method) and more flexible access to the full documentation; 3) access to more data summaries and diagnostic statistics to illustrate research possibilities for students, for
classroom use by educators, or for users with «simple» climatology questions (
e.g., annual and seasonal means); and 4) direct access to the complete data products (
e.g., the whole monthly mean cloud dataset is now available online).
