Teaching Models Information Processing Family of Models. These models include organizing
data, sensing problems, generating concepts and solutions as well as inquiry training. The model is
concerned with social relationships and development of a confident integrated learner. See Part
Two, Joyce, B., Weil, M., & Calhoun, E. (2009). Models of teaching. (8th ed.). Boston: Pearson.
EDU2022 course purposes and topics (see course calendar) as well as the laboratory setting assume
that students will make discoveries, teach each other, and share knowledge and skills to
increase the quality and quantity of class learning, and to better meet the challenge of rapidly
developing technology. The constructivist model as suggested in the Shelly-Cashman textbook will be
utilized.
Live Text Assessment Requirement: For those classes with Live Text or Practicum -- If the portfolio
or LiveText requirements are rated, by the instructor, to have been completed in less than a
satisfactory manner then no more than a "D" may be earned in the class regardless of the number of
points earned.
