As its title suggests, Learners and Learning is a module that addresses most directly the central, core business of schooling. The aim of the module is to improve the teaching abilities of teachers. It accordingly promotes a theoretically informed understanding of what learning is,how it takes place, and how teachers may go about organising systematic learning. The module enables teachers to analyse learning, and, in so doing, to reflect on what they can do to improve it. Thus, while the module draws on the learning theories of writers like Piaget and Vygotsky, it grounds these examples, practical exercises, and case studies drawn from schools.

This one-period lesson begins by discussing case studies and how they are beneficial in social science research. The two case study examples come from the sociology discipline and relate to subject matter on power, division, and protest, as well as socialization, identity, and interaction.

This literature review looks at the impacts of game-based learning in the classroom, specifically how it impacts student engagement and student achievement. 

This literature review explores the use of technology and the pedagogy behind implementing digital portfolios.

In this paper I have researched the application of game based learning in the classroom. Game based learning is a concept that is designed to target various learning styles through interactive activities. This review will analyze how game based learning can be incorporated into the classroom and the appropriate games to be used based on grade level and academic content. This review also analyzes the support and skills educators need in order to implement game based learning into the classroom and determine the impact game based learning has on a child’s understanding of new concepts and skills and the effectiveness of using game based learning in the classroom. This review covers the importance of game based learning for student comprehension growth and include studies on the effectiveness of implementing game based learning in any grade level classroom. I have research specifically MinecraftEDU and how it can be used as a teaching application in game based learning.

The stories in Living Proof are intended to provide support and inspiration for mathematics students experiencing struggle and despair. If students keep working, if they keep seeking, they’ll be rewarded by serendipity, which is really just, as these stories remind us, the habit of mind to be engaged and to notice when something good has happened.

Students are given a brief scenario based on an actual event, designed to illustrate specific ethical issues associated with science. After reading the scenario students, will individually and in cooperative learning groups, respond to questions designed to probe their ethics and values. In this scenario, sinkhole development and the relationship between groundwater levels and karst geology are examined. Knowledge is then applied to a lawsuit filed by a family who lost a member in a sinkhole accident.

This activity introduces students to the interdisciplinary field of geoarchaeology through a case study of the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 CE. It combines short lectures with questions requiring analyses of a variety of data sets relating to volcanic hazards. It requires no background in geoscience or archaeology and is aimed at students from both the physical sciences and the humanities, from high school through freshman year.
