MAT 697 Florida Atlantic University Applied Mathematics Problems

Directions:

In this activity, you will be completing a teacher work sample* which is a well-established way to document your ability to plan, implement, and assess learning outcomes to improve student performance.
Your task as a teacher candidate is to: collaborate with your cooperating teacher or education professionals to identify a topic for which to plan and teach a unit that fits into the scope and sequence of the curriculum for your placement/grade level.

Differentiation must be provided for children with diverse learning needs. Appropriate state standards (e.g., Florida BEST Standards or Nevada Academic Standards) must be incorporated into the instruction.

To measure the impact on student learning, you are expected to:

• collect and analyze student data to support instructional decisions.
• provide assessment data in a graphical format that allows comparison of the student performance before and after instruction.

Context: This assignment is linked to the interdisciplinary unit plan as the structure to organize the learning activities of students, discuss the assignment with the cooperating teacher, mentor teacher, or other appropriate professionals. After identifying the topic to teach, follow the instructions in parts 1-6. Refer to the following rubric to complete each section:

1. Introduction

2. Develop the context for instruction… what does the research say about assessing student learning

3.Establish learning goals and objectives

4. Develop assessment plan elements that address pre-assessing and post-assessing student learning

5. Design and deliver instruction that includes instructional plans (Unit of work) based on the results of the pre-assessment

6. Analyze student learning and measure learning gains

7. Reflect on teaching and learning based on outcomes of measurement

8. Conclusion
