LONG TERM GOAL Adopt 21st century teaching approaches to enhance students appreciation of geography. Fatima Ateeq Qureshi
SHORT TERM GOALS • Change my questionining strategies with students to promote critical thinking on the topic. • Focus on encouraging students instead of praising. • Focus on the geographical process students use to get to answer, not just the answer itself • Encourage collaboration among students • Help students to understand that they can use each other knowledge as resources Fatima Ateeq Qureshi
Instructional strategies and tasks • I will provide more opportunities for students to answer questions that require higher-order thinking • I will provide students with time for group discussion • I will ask questions that require students to explain how they came to an answer • I will allow students to gather in randomly assigned groups or pairs to discuss how to identify geographical features Fatima Ateeq Qureshi
Solutions to anticipated challenges CHALLENGES • The principal may not agree witth my new approach • Parents may not understand my methods • I do not own any multimedia • There may be some students who do not want to work together SOLUTIONS • I will share the course manual and my notes from this course with my principal • I will use my new word processing skills to create a newsletter to inform parents of my new methods • I will make more handouts for my students to understand the topic • I will randomly group students to encourage collaboration with all class members Fatima Ateeq Qureshi
