This model gave great insight

in to some of the key

components to a successful

classroom experience

WebQuests!WebQuests are a great activity to get students involved in using the internet for academics.

These often will have a final project at the end that will check student’s understanding of material.

Fires in the BathroomThis textbook gave great insight to the classroom from the student’s point of

view.

“Know and care about the material, treat kids with respect and fairness, and they will pay attention, do the work, give up some freedom, and play by the rules.”

“It’s okay for your teachers to push you – it just shows they care and they want to see you succeed in life.”

GeoGebra & Google SketchUpTwo great pieces of software that can enhance any math class.

Special Ed. Position InterviewsAttending presentations by special education professor candidates gave insight on:

• What employers want to know about you as a person.

• How the interview process works.

• What could I be asked to do on a personal interview?

Glogster Student SampleCreating a student sample:

• Is a great way to see how long it would take students to create.

• Determine if a project is an individual or group project.

• Can show how students get creative using a specific piece of software.
