Your philosophy of classroom management is the foundation for all the components of the plan that follow. You will write statements that describe your beliefs about children and classroom management. Statements should answer questions such as” What makes a teacher “effective?”
What is my definition of classroom management?
How do I want my classroom to look and feel, behaviorally speaking? What aspects of classroom functioning are most important to me?
What are my main responsibilities in classroom management?
What are my students’ main responsibilities with regard to behavior and classroom management?

Observe the delivery of two or more lessons and take notes on the types of assessments the teacher uses, how data is gathered, and how the data he or she gathers is used. Consider all types of assessments, even those that are very informal such as signals for understanding, questioning techniques, and group and independent work.
After you observe and take notes, meet with the certified special educator to ask the following questions:
What type of data did you plan to collect during the lessons?
How do you collect data? How do you store it?
What do you use this data for?
When do you revisit the data?
When and how do you share data with students? Teachers? Parents? Other service providers?
How often do you assess students in a typical lesson?
Which types of data do you find most useful? Why?
Use any remaining field experience hours to collaborate with the teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.
Reflect upon your observations, interview, and collaboration in a 250-500 word summary. How does the teacher’s use of data correlate with your recent research on data collection and use? Be sure to explain how you will use your findings in your future professional practice.

Question 1 (between 1,000 and 1,300 words)
Independent learning after attending lectures is important. Recall that the topic “critical appraisal”
has been discussed in a lecture:
(i) critical appraisal refers to “assessing the methodological quality of a study” and is a key
part in evidence-based education
(ii) note also that critical appraisal is a process within “systematic review”
The design of this question is to enable you to have a more in-depth understanding of systematic
review through a directed-learning concept. Below are more detailed instructions:
i.use any of the search engines (e.g., Google …) and type in “systematic review”
ii. you will find information about “systematic reviews” within different web-pages
iii. read information about systematic reviews from relevant websites and other relevant
materials you can find from other sources (e.g., the Library) — bear in mind that not
everything in the web can be trusted; this question is also designed to test your ability on
selection and judgment.
Then, write an essay on the topic “What is systematic review and critical appraisal; and why are
they important?”

In your assignment this week, you will develop the learning scenario on which you will base most of your other assignments in this course. Your learning scenario can focus on a problem that exists in your current or past organization or a change requested by key stakeholders in the organization. Focus on who in the organization is being asked to change (target audience); what is currently taking place (“as is” state); and what stakeholders want to take place after a training or educational intevention (“to be” or “future” state). Keep your learning scenario simple with a focus on a single problem or change that you believe can be solved by training or education.
Your learning scenario can be based on previous, present, or fictitious experiences. For example, if you are not an instructional designer, but have participated in a course or training program that did not meet the learning goals or close a performance gap, you might choose that learning scenario as your example. If you are currently an instructional designer or working in that role, you might choose an upcoming project or a portion of that project to work on for this assignment.
As always, consult your professor if you need help formulating your learning scenario so that the scenario includes a clear learning need.
Be sure to include the following components in your assignment:
Describe the learning scenario with comprehensive detail. Be sure to identify the current state (“as is”) and the desired future state (“to be”). Use fictitious names of individuals and organizations, even if the scenario is not based on actual events. Developing your own learning scenario is how you get to tailor the assignment to your interests and experiences. This approach is often referred to as a learner-centered design.
Analyze the learning need in the scenario. Start by describing the learning need and how you know it is a learning need.
Justify which model (problem, innovation, discrepancy) you think would be most appropriate in conducting the needs assessment.
Discuss any ethical, legal, or political factors that might influence the identification or analysis of the learning need or needs assessment model. For example, would the organization be liable to pay penalties if your analysis revealed than mandated safety training had not occurred and was necessary? What if executives put pressure on you to overlook certain findings in favor of their own perspectives?
Length: 3-5 pages, excluding title and reference pages
References: Include a minimum of 3 scholarly resources.
The completed assignment should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. The content should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards and should adhere to…..
