THIS SITE IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION
During Spring 2001, as part of a PT3 Grant, preservice teachers enrolled in an
undergraduate course "Human Learning and Instruction" at the City College of the
City University of New York worked in groups on a teaching strategy they selected from
a list of strategies that promote active, meaningful learning. As Part of the PT3 Grant, during Fall 2000,
some of us from CCNY went to Hawaii to learn how to develop such multimedia sites.
This is a link to my group's site: http://t3.thinkquest.org/tempt3/group4/
This experience enabled me to help my students construct their own multimedia sites during Spring 2001.
Each group of students during Spring 2001 developed its own web site on the teaching strategy they selected
for their project. Their projects also included each individual student doing research papers on the strategy,
finding lesson plans on the Internet, developing lesson plans which involve use of the teaching strategy,
and conducting an in-class demonstration of how the teaching strategy works.
Our preservice teachers come from many different countries, comprising a virtual united nations!
Take a look at our Countries of Origin.
Below are links to sites developed by the preservice teachers during Spring 2001.
What do YOU already know about these teaching strategies?
Before going to the web sites on these teaching strategies, please take a few minutes to write down what you already know about each of these teaching strategies. Doing so will make learning about the strategies more meaningful as you can more easily connect new information to your existing knowledge base if the relevant material has been activated. Additionally, describing your current beliefs about the strategies may latter reveal that you have some less than accurate conceptions of some aspects of these teaching strategies, which are also characterized as misconceptions, preconceptions, and/or emerging conceptions.
