TJ-Installment 2

Effective teachers must be aware of and actively consider the many contexts in which learners grow and learn. Context influences learning and learners influence their contexts. Review the big ideas and principles in Chapters 4, 5, 6 and associated module materials. Use the research reported and your own background experience to address the following prompts:

  • Describe some of the wider contextual influences and interactions that impact students’ cognitive, social, and moral development? 
  • What influences or conditions can help or hinder students’ motivation in the classroom? 
  • Consider the developmental trends in social-emotional learning. Describe two or three ways in which you might design your classroom learning environment to scaffold and promote students social-emotional development? Why would they be effective?
  • How can the peer culture in a classroom promote learning for the grade level you plan to teach? What strategies might you use to facilitate peer relationships in the classroom?
