Assignment #3 Virtual Field Experience (20 points)
The purpose of this assignment is to develop a better understanding of the teaching, learning and assessment processes as well as teacher effectiveness through observation, reflection, and teaching of a physical education or health education lesson.
The focus for the observation is the effective use of a variety of assessment strategies in the elementary classroom for PE.
For example, it focuses on the use of effective and varied communication strategies with students, specialist teachers, and support personnel in physical education and the use of effective teaching strategies for grouping, adapting existing materials and technology, and designing appropriately sequenced learning activities based on the Florida State Standards.
This assignment includes the following:
1. View two videos:
Title: Elementary PE Dribbling with Basketball Lesson (20 Min.)
Title: Teaching Expectations in Elementary PE Through Movement
2. Write a descriptive summary for each of the two teaching experiences demonstrated in the videos.
Include:
· The use of direct teaching or media in physical education and health education instruction.
· Various teacher roles, school organizational patterns and philosophical variants in the school system’s physical education and health education programs.
· Organization and management of varied learning groups in teaching physical education and health education to address elementary (K-6) student needs and interests.
· Use of systematic feedback and coaching to promote learning in the areas of physical education and health education; and
· Content and skills taught in physical education and health education and their correlation with the Florida State Standards.
· Compare and contrast the strategies employed by the two teachers observed. To what degree did they utilize these strategies, if at all? How effective were the strategies used with English language learning (ELL) students or students with other special needs? Were these students evident in the videos? How effective were the strategies used with students of different ability levels? Were strategies, materials, and technologies modified to accommodate individual student’s learning? If so, in what ways were the strategies modified? How were the Florida State Standards addressed through the strategies used?
