Introduction/Thesis

Write an introduction that lists what your paper will be about. An easy wat to do this is to start with a topic sentence, then write one sentence summarizing each of the three sections below. Then create a final sentence that transitions to the next section. This will give you a total of 5 sentences for this paragraph.

Professional Dispositions of Learners

In this section, answer the following question: Why are Professional Dispositions of Learners important in educational settings? Provide examples from your past educational experience. Make sure that you use at least one in-text citation in this section, formatted like this (Example, 2019).

Application of Model Code of Ethics for Educators

In this section, answer the following question: From your past educational experience, how have the Model Code of Ethics for Educators been applied to classroom practice? Again, make sure to use in-text citations. Make sure each paragraph in your essay is 3-8 sentences long. If your paragraph is longer than that, split it into 2 paragraphs.

Skills, Traits, or Attributes of Effective Teachers

In this section, answer the following questions: What skills, traits, or attributes have you seen demonstrated by effective teachers from your past educational experience? What skills, traits, or attributes do you believe you need to develop to be an effective teacher? Make sure you are paraphrasing information from your sources-don’t use direct quotes if you can avoid it. You need to have at least one in-text citation in this section.

Conclusion

Wrap up your paper with a summary of what you wrote. Your conclusion will be basically the same information as your introduction but use different words and phrases. Simply remind your reader of your information and point of view.
