Utilizing Collaborative Learning To Analyze And Represent Data During A Graphing Unit, Emily Mangano
Utilizing Collaborative Learning To Analyze And Represent Data During A Graphing Unit, Emily Mangano
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
This capstone project reports the effects of various differentiated instructional and assessment strategies that were integrated into a third-grade math unit on data collection and representation. The unit was conducted over 12 days. It consisted of nine lessons, a review lesson, a pre-test, and a post test. I will explain the data I collected, the instructional strategies I implemented, and the assessment strategy used to track student progress. The instructional strategies included collaborative learning, cues and questions, feedback. A pre- and post-test were administered, and the data analyzed. Based on the data I collected, the students improved in their knowledge …

Phonics In Kindergarten: Introducing Digraphs Using Scaffolding And Manipulatives, Courtney Brink
Phonics In Kindergarten: Introducing Digraphs Using Scaffolding And Manipulatives, Courtney Brink
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
In my capstone project, I incorporated multiple strategies that supported students’ learning of and engagement with lessons on three digraphs: sh, th, and ch. My objective was not to teach to mastery, but instead to expose students to higher level literacy concepts and build their background knowledge for future lessons. Based on student artifacts, students gained multiple opportunities for exposure and practice of reading and writing words with digraphs. The assessment data does not directly support an improvement in student performance with independent writing. This capstone will highlight the instructional and assessment strategies I used, the data I collected, and …
This Is Your Life Cycle: Analyzing The Impact Of Graphic Organizers, Collaborative Learning, And Non-Linguistic Representations On Student Learning, Ian Schmidt
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
This capstone investigated the implementation of cooperative learning through turn-and-talks and the use of graphic organizers in a third-grade reading unit. The unit’s topic centered around a story titled “This Is Your Life Cycle” which talks about the life cycle of a dragonfly. Throughout the unit, the students completed a pre-test, multiple summaries using a graphic organizer, multiple formative assessments, and a post-test. Upon completion of the unit, I analyzed the data to determine the effects the strategies used had on students' learning. Student data and performance demonstrated a possible link between an increase in student learning and the use …

Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
Reading skills are difficult to comprehend for student who are English Language Learners, especially in first grade! Like many other majors, education majors have an "internship" called clinical practice or student teaching. This is the most influential time to put our learned skills to the test in the most genuine environment possible: a classroom for entire semester. For my clinical practice, I was placed in a on the English side of a dual-language 1st grade classroom at an elementary school in the OPS School District. I discovered an area where there was struggle for many students. Therefore, I created …
