General Education Information Approved College Associate Degree GE Applicability CSU GE Applicability (Recommended-requires CSU approval) Cal-GETC Applicability (Recommended - Requires External Approval) IGETC Applicability (Recommended-requires CSU/UC approval) Articulation Information CSU Transferable Methods of Evaluation Essay Examinations Example: Students will write an essay to explain the steps to effective problem solving based on the age group of their lab placement. Instructor will evaluate according to a matrix. Problem Solving Examinations Example: Student's practical skills and abilities will be evaluated through a quiz that provides typical classroom problem vignettes and requires students to write a plan of action. Projects Example: Students will write lesson plans throughout the time of their placement. These will be compiled throughout the semester and submitted as a resource binder at the completion of their laboratory hours. Graded using a rubric that measures quantity of lesson plans as well as the completeness of each plan. Skill Demonstrations Example: Students will record themselves as they implement a lesson plan and submit for effectiveness evaluation by instructor. Students will be evaluated on the thoroughness of information provided to children as well as the way in which they hold the attention of the classroom (affect, voice tone, eye contact, etc.) Repeatable No Methods of Instruction Laboratory Lecture/Discussion Distance Learning Lab: Students will create lesson plans and submit for approval. Upon approval, students will implement plans with students in their lab placements and write a reflection on how the lesson went and what could be improved. Lecture: Instructor lectures from the text and then assigns students to write an essay evaluating a child development program for school age children and proposing steps to improve its performance on six key indicators of quality; Instructor requires students to research social issues that are affecting school age children today. Students are divided into groups to debate various issues of race, gender, sexual orientation. Teacher will act as a resource for questions, facilitate the debate, and pose analytical questions for discussion. Distance Learning Students will film themselves as they give a lesson in their lab placement and post to a discussion board for class feedback. Typical Out of Class Assignments Reading Assignments 1. Read "Teachers Weigh In on Common Core" (Will, 2016) and have students work in a small group based on lab placement to identify what aspects of common core they have seen in their placement settings. 2. Read "The Art of Comprehension" (Bryan, 2014) and have small group discussions about how this concept can be used with students in lab settings. Writing, Problem Solving or Performance 1. Write weekly reflections on events that occurred in the lab setting. 2. Read "Schools Combine Meditation and Brain Science to Help Combat Discipline Problems" (Cavazos, 2016) and write lesson plans that could be implemented in lab placement. Other (Term projects, research papers, portfolios, etc.) 1. Read "The Project Approach" by Katz and Chard. Plan and implement a project with a group of children. Document the project with the children and present documentation to the class. Required Materials Classroom Teaching Skills Author: James M.
