Standard 4: Instructional Delivery and Management
“A physical educator uses effective communication and pedagogical skills and strategies to enhance student engagement and learning”
Element 4.2: Implement effective demonstrations, explanations, and instructional cues and prompts to link physical activity concepts to appropriate learning experiences.
Artifact: EDU 256 Bulletin Board
Date: Fall 2010
Reflection
In EDU 256 Seminar for Field Experience, each student was required to design a binder that highlighted the experience at a local middle and high school over winter break. The binder included specific modules such as interviewing students in the district as well as leading a lesson that was created by both the student and the host teacher. Part of the experience was to create a bulletin board in either the middle or high school that focused on a lesson that the students were involved with at the time. The bulletin board was located in a common spot where all of the students would be able to view it at their disposal.
My bulletin board highlighted the importance of personal fitness and how to maintain a healthy level of personal fitness. The unit that the class was working in at the high school was personal fitness, so the bulletin board that was created educated the students a little further about personal fitness and what it is all about. The students were involved with exercises that required resistance bands, cardio kickboxing, and Zumba. As a physical educator, students respond best to demonstrations, cues, and prompts that help them remember what they are learning about. The cues and visual demonstrations are used to help the students learn a different way rather than being lectured all the time. If students have a visual aid such as a bulletin board that highlights ideas that they are learning in class, they will be more engaged in the class and will be able to take these learning experiences with them for the rest of their lives.
