1) Choose one of the Primary or Secondary Source Readings we have read so far this quarter, and one of the Theoretical lenses we have discussed from the readings and in class.  Clearly identify both sources by title and/ or author name, and include clear page number citations when appropriate.  Write a paragraph introducing the theoretical lens you chose and why you believe it is an appropriate lens for viewing the historical moment you will introduce with your primary or secondary source reading.

2) What do you believe was the most effective strategy people used to combat the type of injustice described in this reading and why? Make sure you refer to specific passages from the reading.  Give plenty of contextual details of time and place (with appropriate page number citations to prove to me that you read the text closely and understand it deeply).  In other words: you must use specific historical evidence to support a main thesis statement claim.

Indirect assessments derive from recollections, reconstructions or subjective ratings of events. Examples of indirect assessment's could include interviews, checklists and even rating scales. This discussion encourages you to explore behavioral interviews and the best practice necessary for effective implementation. For this discussion, post a substantive response to the following discussion question:

Discuss at least three necessary interpersonal skills for an interview and why these are important for effective implementation.
Why do practitioners typically avoid 'why' questions in a behavioral interview?

Directions: Synthesize all of the information you have read on culturally-relevant pedagogy to answer the following questions: (Copy the questions onto your response. Use complete sentences, professional language and grammar.)

What is culturally-relevant pedagogy?
Some would say culturally-relevant teaching is about best practices. Do you agree or disagree? Why?
What mindsets and behaviors would increase culturally relevant practices in the classroom?
Is culturally relevant teaching necessary for all groups of children? Explain.
Did any information bring up more questions for you?
Did you disagree with any information you read?
Use the Culturally Relevant Pegagogy: Writing Rubric as you write your responses. Self-assess your work with the rubric prior to submission.

The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County

Apply skills and strategies presented in this lesson to develop a plan for teaching from The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County (reading level 7.4 and interest level 9-12).  Your plan must involve a minimum of 4 reading comprehension strategies.

PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!!

reading summary

Your post should be thorough yet concise ranging between 500-700 words (1-1.5 pages, single-spaced). You may also connect your response to previous lectures and readings, or build on other classmates posts to further enrich your argument. These low-stakes writing assignments are designed to facilitate reflection on your learning and deepen your conceptual understanding.

1.  A summary in no more than three sentences of the main points of each assigned reading.
2.  2-3 direct quotes from the readings that you found most compelling, thought-provoking, controversial, or perplexing. Explain why.
3.    2-3 questions arising from the reading. These should be questions that emerged for you while reading or in connection to class discussion. Describe how you came to raise these questions and make direct references to the readings (direct quotes and/or page numbers).

Any topic (writer’s choice)

decide how to best measure the behavior that you have chosen. For example, how much time, in minutes, do you study per day?  How much mountain dew, in ounces, do you drink daily?  In your writing assignment, discuss how you think you could measure the behavior.  Your professor will let you know if this way would be effective for your project.  Once that is approved, you will begin to measure the behavior every day for two weeks WITHOUT making any changes to the behavior.  This will provide you with a baseline for your behavior so you know where you are before you change things.  You will be measuring your baseline during weeks 3 and 4 of this class.
In addition to how you will measure your behavior, discuss at least 5 positive reinforcers that would be effective for you (or your child, if you chose that option) personally.  Remember that a positive reinforcer is something that you add in your environment that increases your behaviors after you meet

Evaluating a Program

This first assignment requires students to compare and contrast evaluation approaches as described in Fitzpatrick, Sanders & Worthen  (2011; FSW hereafter). On page 123 of FSW the authors classify several evaluation approaches into four categories based on the identification of essential factors that guide the evaluation. Each of these approaches is then expanded in subsequent chapters.
Select 2 of these evaluation approaches (these can be under the same factor or under a different factor) and compare and contrast these 2 approaches. Identify the essential common elements of each approach as well as the key differences between these.
Also, identify a program that could be evaluated (ideally, this should be the program the student intends to evaluate as part of the Strategic Research Project), and using the definition of program provided on page 8 of FSW will provide a brief description of the program; in addition, using one of these evaluation approaches, explain why the
