Impressions of teaching paper

 

From your synthesis you will write your own reflection on how the information we have learned in the class  tie into real educational practice. 

The paper will be written in APA style format. At least two outside references will be required for the paper. Remember. 
If they are referenced, you must cite them!

Your paper must include:

An introduction and a conclusion in which you summarize the main points of your

paper. I wrote an intro but you can change it

A graphic organizer such as a map or web that illustrates your key learning(s) from the
course.

A written narrative highlighting 4-6 key concepts(I wrote six concepts but you can change it)ideas and strategies related to 
teaching. The articulation should align with your graphic organizer. It will give detail to
your visual depiction. Emphasize the content and themes that emerged from your
reading of the text, discussion board participation, mentor chats and synthesis papers 
that you wrote throughout the course.
A reflection of how you will use some of these strategies in your own teaching and how
using the strategies will impact your effectiveness as a teacher.

A statement on an area or areas that you feel you would like to know more about to enhance your role as teacher.

References to the course text and any outside sources you use must be done using the format specified in the American Psychological Association manual. This includes
citations and a reference page.

 If your Illustration/Graphic Organizer is not done using the computer, (i.e. a sketch that you did or an actual object), you may take a digital photo or scan it for upload along with your paper.

A Mosaic

Introduction

Every teacher and education major knows there is a lot that goes into teaching and that meets the eye. A teacher’s classroom can be affected by several internal and external factors that can make teaching challenging, but what exactly goes into a successful classroom? The way I see teaching is kind like a mosaic of different pieces: cognitive development, learner differences and needs,

learning and motivation, learner Environment, and social influences. When put together all of these pieces become a beautiful classroom.

Cognitive development

Learner differences and needs

Learning and motivation

Learner Environment

Social influences

Culture and diversity
