Download or read book Student and Teacher Perspectives of the Effectiveness of a High School Advisory Program on Sense of Belonging written by Pamela Dawn Borgeson and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In one high school, an advisory program was put into place to promote students' sense of belonging as a main goal. However, the effectiveness of this program had not been evaluated, and research was needed for a better understanding of program outcomes. The purpose of this mixed methods case study was to evaluate one high school advisory program with a special focus on the program's effect on the students' sense of belonging. Tinto's model of student retention provided the theoretical foundation for this study. The research questions focused on perceptions of the process and outcomes of the advisory program from the perspectives of 9th and 10th grade advisees, 12th grade assistant advisors, and teacher-advisors. Two hundred fourteen 9th and 10th grade advisees, 41 12th grade assistant advisors, and 14 teacher advisors completed surveys. Responses to the qualitative open-ended questions on the survey were analyzed using typological analysis, including both predetermined and inductive categories. Findings indicated that the advisees benefited from the interaction with advisors, wanted more time for advisory, and were concerned about academics. Assistant advisors requested larger roles in the program. Advisors felt that the advisees benefited from the interaction of being part of a group and recommended that the curriculum needed continuous improvement. Responses to the quantitative Likert style questions on the survey rating program goals were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results indicated that advisees agreed that all goals were being met. Recommendations include giving the 12th grade assistant advisors larger roles, providing more frequent or longer advisory meetings, and engagement in continuous revision of the curriculum. Social change implications are effective advisory programs may lead to better overall success in high school, thus decreasing dropout rates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This might well be THE contemporary manual for effective education reform. In a world where the future is now, schools are falling behind. It is a lag we can no longer afford." —Sean M. Nosek, Principal Westview Secondary School, Maple Ridge, BC, Canada "This is the most important book about high schools since Breaking Ranks for school facilities planners." —David E. Anstrand, Principal, Education Environment Planning Consultants Board Member, Council of Educational Facility Planners International Discover options for instruction and school design that reflect the needs of 21st-century students! Preparing students to meet the demands of a constantly changing, technology-driven environment presents today′s educators with unique challenges. This innovative resource demonstrates how traditional, industrial-type high schools have become outdated and helps school leaders plan facilities and curriculum in ways that benefit students′ academic development and performance. Teaching the Digital Generation examines how educators can address the learning needs of secondary students immersed in a digital world by designing and implementing new instructional models and technology infrastructure. The authors explore ten alternative high school models that address 21st-century skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, and digital literacy, and pose five critical considerations: What should instruction and learning look like in a 21st-century school? How can technology foster this kind of learning? What noninstructional components are required? How can time be used differently to support our vision? How can new facility design turn this vision into reality? Incorporating issues of facility design with curriculum and instructional planning, the authors offer educational leaders a new vision for schools.

Book excerpt: How can a high school advisory and mentoring program be established? Schools report that more and more students seem to slip through the cracks or are lost in the shuffle. More students fail ninth grade than any other grade level. William Glasser (1986) estimates that schools fail to engage more than half the students because they fail to fulfill four basic human needs for students: to belong and love, to gain power, to be free, and to have fun. Schools are turning to advisory and mentoring programs as a way to insure that each student is known well by at least one adult in the building, an adult to whom the student can turn for help with both school related and personal issues. Its purpose is to personalize the institution in order to better meet the needs of students. Advisors typically serve as the initial point of contact for parents and monitor the student's progress. Most of the literature about teacher advisory programs is written for the middle level, but the concept is gaining acceptance and popularity in high schools, as well. Effective high school advisory programs address the following key areas: (1) Advisory Goals in the Domain of Relationships and Self-Esteem; (2) Advisory Goals in the Domain of Academics; (3) Possible structures of advisory programs; (4) Characteristics of an effective advisory program; (5) Administrative considerations in establishing a program; (6) What parents and community members can contribute to the advisory program; (7) Seven reasons why teachers resist advisory programs; and (8) Five of the most common reasons advisory programs fail. (Contains 7 online resources.).

Download or read book Understanding by Design written by Grant P. Wiggins and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2005 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.
