@RutgersAltRoute A6) I would have to say positive reinforcement and trust are extremely important. Once the students can trust you they will open up to you and be willing to advance themselves in the classroom. #AltRtEd#SpEd
@RutgersAltRoute A5) I would like to do a better job of chunking information. I also strongly believe in scaffolding my questions to see the depth of my students knowledge #AltRtEd#SpEd
@RutgersAltRoute A4) NO CELL PHONE POLICY!!! Before class starts each student knows they are to put their cell phone in the numbered shoe slot hanging on the wall. This helps eliminate any temptation.#AltRtEd#SpEd
@RutgersAltRoute A3) I feel that Scaffolding questions has helped a great deal. I also having more of a hands on approach and don't believe in singling out students during class. #AltRtEd#SpEd
@RutgersAltRoute A2) From day 1 I made it clear to my students that I'm not just here to teach them. I'm here to help them succeed in life. I did this by building strong relationships and trust. #AltRtEd#SpEd
@RutgersAltRoute A1) The biggest challenge I find is balancing time and also balancing class structure between my advanced students and special ed students. #AltRtEd#SpEd
@RutgersAltRoute A7: #AltRtEd#Growthmindset I find that by scaffolding my questions it helps the students reach their full potential and reach their goals.
@RutgersAltRoute A6: #AltRtEd#Growthmindset Some feed back to foster growth mindset that I use in my class are: Encouraging peer collaboration, discussion about class topics and the use of a Rubrics.
@RutgersAltRoute A5: #AltRtEd#Growthmindset I like to encourage peer collaboration and learning from mistakes. Since I teach an AP class I like to set high goals for the students, which will give them a sense of accomplishment
@RutgersAltRoute A4: #AltRtEd#Growthmindset Students acknowledge my classroom as a safe place where they will be challenged in a positive way to help them succeed in the future.
@RutgersAltRoute A2: #AltRtEd#Growthmindset It's important for teachers to realize students fear of making a mistake can lead to humiliation. Classroom environment should be inviting& help build on the student teacher relationship. Ability to adapt teaching and material to meet studentβs needs
@RutgersAltRoute A1: #AltRtEd#Growthmindset Molding growth mindset in students is extremely important for students to flourish and succeed in life. As a teacher itβs our responsibility to realize and tap into that.
