Students participate in an individualized learning program while aspiring teachers complete their teacher training competencies through knowledge and performance levels at Portal Schools. The children work in open-space instructional areas that utilize diagnosing and prescribing methods, scope and sequence activities, learning centers, learning activity packages, and contracts. Teachers demonstrate their competencies with specific skills, which include the following: motivating and reinforcing students, producing instructional materials, and personalizing instruction. All competencies are completed on-site with the assistance of clinical professors. Two supportive elements of this pilot program are a) using volunteers to tutor children in math and reading skills and to produce instructional materials… Continue Reading →

The stated purpose of this segment was to provide on-the-job experience in the area of elementary school mathematics. The basic program procedure is described as follows: TTT clinicians tried out contemporary teaching strategies and materials while working with fifth- and sixth-grade mathematics pupils; the classroom teachers also became involved in the planning and utilization of the mathematics laboratory; during the third year the mathematics laboratory moved to larger quarters, and the emphasis changed from assisting pupils to assisting teachers. The author defines the centralized mathematics laboratory which was used in this project as a room separate… Continue Reading →

At the federal level and in many states, STEM initiatives encourage hands-on exposure to technologies and open the door for student-led discovery of tools related to robotics, coding, programming, and electronics. Influenced by local STEM initiatives, the Learning Resource Center (LRC) at the University of Wyoming Lab School decided to create a circulating collection of STEM kits. (The UW Lab School is a tuition free charter school with a diverse population selected by lottery.) This school library also partnered with Lab School teachers to explore these STEM collections and to develop programming and a curriculum to teach digital literacies and… Continue Reading →
