4. Teaching and Relationships Microteach –Did you do this? – Focus on teaching students; What are they interested in? – Teach just a few concepts per class; Specify objectives – Provide overviews/reviews for students – Find meaningful connections (real-world & personal) – Plan accommodations; Differentiate – Check & assess student learning frequently – Use multiple assessments – Inform your teaching effectiveness with student performance – Engage students to think; Question them! – Allow students to create questions & disseminate findings – Ask students to explain thinking; “How? & Why?” – Use different teaching strategies – Provide opportunity for inquiry – Encourage students to make & follow rules

6. Peer Critique and RTOP Peer critique – detailed analysis of something (like the videos you made) Analysis – examination of the elements (what constitutes good teaching?) Why would you use peer critique – Explicitly promotes and allows for reflection How could you let students critique peers – YouDemo, post-its, other… What characteristics would you rate? Planning, Implementation, and Assessment (Look at the “Teaching and Relationships” page) RTOP – Revised Teaching Observation Protocol (It is only useful for non-traditional lessons. This will be used for you during student teaching residency evaluations.) Two effective questioning strategies: “Why?” and “How?” Video qualities – above and beyond teaching qualities – – Picture, Sound, Stability, Lighting quality So, the big question is what did you do well in your videos? Did your “students” collect and analyze data?
