Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Proficiency-Based Instruction: Rethinking Lesson Design and Delivery authors Eric Twadell, Mark Onuscheck, Anthony Reibel, and Troy Gobble offer a comprehensive guide in proficiency-based instruction and its implementation. The authors begin with a persuasive explanation of the benefits of changing from traditional instruction to one based on student proficiency. However, they recognize that the process of switching from long-standing, traditional methods of instruction to an entirely new method are both daunting and confusing. Thus, the authors offer a process of five comprehensive steps based on the creative process-(1) preparation, (2) incubation, (3) insight, (4) evaluation, and (5) elaboration-that educators can follow to make the switch to proficiency-based instruction. Moreover, the authors ensure that no instructor will go through this process alone by offering the tools necessary to carry out these steps as part of a collaborative team. Through this book, readers will gain all the tools and strategies they need to make the switch from traditional methods of instruction to a system of proficiency-based instruction.

Download or read book Visual proficiency - A perspective on art education written by Kunibert Bering and published by wbv Media GmbH & Company KG. This book was released on 2015-12-18 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day, over a million images are uploaded to flickr. This is a striking example of the so-called »flood« of images that emerged with the beginning of the digital age. A generation of adolescents has already been socialised with this flood of images and deals with it on a daily basis, both in their networks and elsewhere. Art education thus faces significant challenges: art is the only school subject that deals with the problems inherent in images as images, making them the focus of pedagogic activity. This volume presents both the foundations for engaging with the phenomenon of the »image« in a competent and historically informed manner as well as the perspectives for art education that arise from these foundations. It is based upon the conviction that providing orientation in a world defined by images does not mean following solely a technocratic, functionalist or even neoliberal »concept of education«. Quite the contrary: »providing an orientation« for how to deal with images in a world that is dominated by them is a crucial part of the holistic development of young people's personalities. The volume's main focus lies upon the new functions taken on both by the image and by art more generally. It takes into account aspects of globalisation and participation and also includes more unusual views (often from a cross-media perspective) of art and its historical repertory, which even current image creation is unable to dispense with. The volume also deals extensively with architecture and the images it conveys.

Book excerpt: In this 2nd edition of Focus: Elevating the Essentials to Radically Improve Student Learning, Mike Schmoker extends and updates the case that our schools could be on the cusp of swift, unparalleled improvements. But we are stymied by a systemwide failure to simplify and prioritize; we have yet to focus our limited time and energy on the most essential, widely acknowledged, evidence-based practices that could have more impact than all other initiatives combined. They are: simple, coherent curricula; straightforward, traditional literacy practices; and lessons built around just a few hugely effective elements of good teaching. As Schmoker demonstrates, the case for these practices—and the need for them—has grown prodigiously. In every chapter, you’ll find late-breaking discoveries and practical advice on how to simplify the implementation of new state standards in the subject areas; on the hidden pitfalls of our most popular, but unproven instructional fads and programs; and on simple, versatile strategies for building curriculum, planning lessons, and integrating literacy into every discipline. All of these strategies and findings are supported with exciting new evidence from actual schools. Their success confirms, as Michael Fullan writes, that a focus on the best "high-leverage practices" won’t only improve student performance; they will produce "stunningly powerful consequences" in our schools.

Download or read book The First 20 Hours written by Josh Kaufman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.

Download or read book Defining Digital Proficiency Measurement Targets for U.S. Army Units written by John S. Barnett and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army is exploring the advantages of networked computer systems to enhance battlefield situation awareness and command and control, a program known as digitization. The long-term goal of the present effort is to develop measures of the skills needed to exploit the advantages of digitization. The initial challenge was to identify candidate digital skills, since there was no listing of digital skills available to use as a starting point. This report focuses on the approach used to identify candidate digital skills. First, data from the Center for Army Lessons Learned (CALL) were analyzed to identify long- term, high-profile problems likely to be addressed by the effective use of digital systems. Next, digital procedures that units might employ to address these problems, and the cognitive capabilities soldiers would need to implement these solutions, were described. Through this process, twenty-two candidate skills were identified which could be used to identify measures of skill performance. The findings of this report will be used to help define performance standards and develop after action review aids.
