Respond to 8 students - due in 2 hours - 50 words each - I have put a guided response for each set to help with the response:
Guided Response:
Review several of your classmates’ posts and respond to at least two classmates. Offer an additional example of how development of the age groups your classmates selected influence curriculum decisions.
Student 1: Tracie:
The age group I chose is 3-5 years of age. The physical development of children in this age group is movement and coordination which can also influence the curriculum. During this time, children’s’ brains are like sponges. They are watching and learning everything in their environment. This age group brings a “wide variety of experiences to the preschool setting, which should serve to inform curricular decisions (Jaruszewicz, 2013). The social and emotional aspect of this age group is that of caring, understanding and many more. Three to five-year old’s need the aptness to proceed around and we as teachers should promote physical development. A great way of doing this is consistently doing active play inside and also outside of the classroom. Teachers should label bins and shelves that have objects such as toys and the areas they are playing/ working in. The children will be able to independently pick them up and return them as they play. Incorporate games in the curriculum that lets them move free and easily within the game.
Cognitive aspect of a 3-5-year-old is that their brain functions are learning things on a daily base to help the child. In the newsletter by Paraskevopoulou it was written: “Curriculums that include topics such as appropriate scheduling, creating a developmentally appropriate classroom, and making the most of learning centers, will help create a classroom environment that actively engages the child and keeps his or her attention. When implemented in the classroom, these components contribute to less discipline problems and a smoother day” (Paraskevopoulou, F, (2008).
The key to successful learning, especially for children ages 3-5, you must have a classroom environment that’s design especially for them. The environment should be one where they able to move around freely with no obstacles in their way. The curriculum must be on the preschool level for the students to understand.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

- SPEAK UP AND REACH OUT -
As students, you may sometimes face problems in school, be it with your friends or with
your schoolwork. Here are some groups of people that you can turn to for help.
PARENTS
Parents are the people that are closest to you. So, when you face problems, you should
pour your hearts out to your parents. You should tell your parents about what is troubling
you. Your parents will be eager to help. They often offer advice, provide support and show
their understanding based on their own experiences.
SCHOOL COUNSELLORS
There are counselors in every school. Counselors are trained to help students overcome
their fears, anxieties and worries. They are qualified to give professional help to students
to deal with personal, social and even problems related to school work. Sometimes they
offer students career guidance. To do this, the counselors help students identify their
personalities and attributes so that the students can choose the right career path.
VOLUNTEERS IN HELP CENTRES
There are many volunteers who work in these help centres. They are trained to talk to
troubled students through phone cells. Some students prefer to talk about their problems to
someone they do not see face-to-face. One help centre that offers this service is
Befrienders.
PEER FACILITATORS
In school, there are peer facilitators who assist the counselors. These peer facilitators are
selected by students themselves, and they are interested to help other students. They are
given training on how to be a good listener. Some students find it easier to talk to someone
of their age group. They think that peers understand them better than adults especially
when it comes to issues such as peer pressure, schoolwork and the challenges of being a
teenager today.

No Gain”. A student has to work hard in all aspects ofhis or her life. Only then the student will
achieve the intended goals. Ifyou want to score A’s,then you will have to put in 4 to 5 hours of
study daily at home apart from studying in school.
In addition, being disciplined is very important. To be hardworking, you need to be
disciplined, in terms ofbeing punctual to school, being attentive in class, finishing up homework
and doing eraly preparation for tests and examinations. To be able to do all tehse,having positive
attitudes and values play important roles. The never give-up attitude should be instilled in you.
Only then success will come your way.
Besides, time management is important. A student has to study, doesschool work,
homework, faces examinations and also needs to cope with extra-curricular activities. It is also
equally important to spend leisure time with family and friends. So, the student has to manage his
time wisely. A personal timetable can be very useful.
