Student Presentation of Classroom Discipline Models
Each student will prepare (as a member of a small group) a formal presentation designed to comprehensively teach the model to the class. The classroom discipline model presentation should demonstrate:
a) Content: A thorough and accurate understanding and communication of the content t in the text including the basic premise, a thorough knowledge of the model's author(s) as evidenced by information derived from readings and research, discussion of the central features of the model, including contributions to discipline, central focus, principle teachings, analysis/views on discipline, reflections, strengths, and terminology.
You will be required to disseminate at least one journal article for your peers to read about your discipline model. It is to be uploaded to D2L a week prior to your presentation.
b) Accuracy of content: Make sure that information is obtained from legitimate and reliable sources (as opposed to advertisers or manufacturers of the products).
c) Organization of information and quality: The ability to organize and present the information to the class in a thorough, meaningful, and interesting manner. Handouts will be a required component of this activity, but no formal paper is required. You can upload your handouts to D2L, but it must be at least 12 hours in advanced.
d) Presenters' evaluation and learning experience: Evaluative information and learning experiences based on the presenter's actual use of the components of the model in a classroom/school or other applied setting.
e) Presentation method and visual aids: A formal presentation normally includes visual supports but make sure that you do not read everything from your visuals. If using a Power Point, make sure that they meet the criteria for effective presentations to enable distance site learner read the materials easily.
f) Team work: All students who work in the group together need to collaborate and complete their fair share of work. They all will receive the same grade of the group presentations. If there are any problems or concerns regarding any aspect that would affect presentation quality, please speak with me.
