My Practicum Philosophy

There are many changes that can be done to implement different goals and developments. One can start by trying to humanize physical education. A truly humanistic approach to physical education embraces both formal programs and the physical activities that people typically engage in, and has a number of specific goals, all of which are under the objective of moving each individual toward social and emotional well-being. Once again there are four goals to try to humanize physical education, these go along with the other humanistic theoretical goals. The first goal involves elevating students’ self-perception of one’s physical ability to the point that self-esteem is improved, at least in relations to physical ability. A student’s physical ability is related to how they feel about themselves, which means a student that is actually winning or doing well is feeling better about themself, and if a student is not doing good then they would feel worse. The second goal is self-actualization in those dimensions which can be influenced by physical education experiences. In this goal a student is figuring out what they can do, and trying to actualize their own potential through physical education. The next goal is self-understanding, which is the process where ones physical

My philosophy of professional practice statement is to give the maximum in work not only for the students but also for those that surround me. My philosophy is very simple to respect all people to respect me.Strive to help students think critically, facilitate learning with customized modifications, and help students use problem-solving strategies. My personal core of belief is always practiced active listening to assist the students better. It is vital to remark the importance of understanding the student 's development theories and how can be applied. I believe a professional in the higher education system should be using developmental, intellectual, cognitive methods into practice to

My practicum was a good learning experience of practical public health work and exposure to how zoonotic disease is handled by multiple public health departments. I appreciated my experience giving me the knowledge of day-to-day public health work and what it means to be epidemiologist. My classes in epidemiology prepared me well for understanding terminology and the process of outbreak response. Particularly, my Applied Epidemiology course provided me with the critical thinking skills to evaluate published literature. In reviewing my work I used multiple public health competencies including biostatistics, epidemiology, communication and informatics, leadership, professionalism, and program planning.

Higher education is a daunting challenge that everyone goes through. It’s the type of challenge that can lift your spirits, but at the same time it can bring you down. When I think of higher education I think of one word: stress. Where does philosophy fit in? First off, what does philosophy mean? Philosophy can mean many things to different people. It can be a belief. It can be an attitude. It can be whatever you want it to be. For me a philosophy and higher education go hand in hand. I’m very committed in my career. I have a passion for it. I have obtained valuable knowledge over the years. My philosophy of higher education fuels my passion. My philosophy helps me manage my emotions. That is why having a philosophy of higher education is important.

However, there two articles that I have chosen as my preference to look at the in depth of inclusive classrooms. The two articles include; “Improving Student Outcomes: Data-driven instruction and fidelity of implementation in Response to Intervention (RTI) MODEL” by Sharon Davis Bianca. And the next article is “A continuum of Paraeducator support for utilization in adapted physical education by Justin A. Haegele and Francis M. Kozub.

2) I believe sharing support of ELLs and ensuring an inclusive approach relies greatly on the teachers themselves, specifically the classroom and ELL teacher. Fairbaim & Jones-Vo mention two things that I believe would work these are collaboratively planning lessons and co-teaching. By planning lessons together, both teachers are on the same page, They each understand the respected needs of their students and able to work together to create ways in which lessons are excited to optimize student success. I also think having another person perceptive is beneficial as their teaching experiences may offer you some guidance. In terms of co-teaching, I think this directly benefits the students. We all have different ways of teaching and I think students

Reform for physical education

Just like any individuals in our society, the needs of students with a disability also differ. As a future educator and specifically a physical education teacher, I believe inclusion is at the utmost importance within a school setting in both theory and practical lessons. It is disheartening to know that students in particular those with a disability are often excluded due to their needs and that a number of teachers are not educated with the right skills in a way that they know how to plan their lessons effectively enough that all students are able to participate and feel comfortable doing so. According to the ‘Inclusive Education for Students with a Disability’ (2013) report which was commissioned by the Australian Research Alliance for Children

Whether a child has a disability such as blind, deaf, one-arm, in a wheelchair, autism, or FXS, they still should have the same opportunities as all other students. However, when including a child with a disability, it is important to note each child’s difference and how each one learn and communicated to be able to work with each individual and meet their needs. One must know the many ways to prepare a physical education program for inclusion and appropriate modifications and motor movements for the

My personal philosophy its important for me that I stay true to my personal, moral and ethical values that has followed me throughout my life. The American Nursing Association stats “ The nurse owes the same duties to self as to others, including the responsibility to preserve integrity and safety, to maintain competence and to continue personal and professional growth”. (American Nurse Association, 2011, p. 7)

# 1 Identify and discuss four dispositions/characteristics you feel an effective teacher MUST possess and provide justification for your thinking using scholarly knowledge from texts, experiences, and classroom discussions. Then, explain which philosophy of education your four chosen dispositions describe. A deep understanding and grounding in the philosophy must be evident in your answer.

The special needs children I was working with struggle to stay focused and sit still during class time. The addition of school based physical therapy helps to control their focus and allows them to keep up with the other students. A lot of the students I observed in this setting lack genuine human contact outside their home. Physical therapy gives them a place where they are they are most important and everything is individualized to their needs. Working with these kids was exceptionally rewarding and sparked so many ideas on how to incorporate the things that kids love and get excited about into their treatment. Making an effort to be available for my patients with questions and concerns is important. I will do my best to ensure that my clients and patients are interested in the exercises I give them to promote adherence and importantly,

The learning experience should be that of a collective nature where students are able to indiscriminately relate to the information, re-teach the information and have a balanced incorporation of all the learning centers in society; including the home and the church. The goal of this incorporation is to create a balanced learning environment that facilitates holistic development in the young mind. As professionals entrusted with the shaping of young minds, teachers must facilitate learning and personal, spiritual, ethical and academic development. My philosophy for education is a multi-part philosophy that encapsulates the idea of holistic and inclusive learning. The philosophy caters for the overall shaping and development of the young mind and includes aspects of balanced training, incorporated teachings and it generally focuses on training students to become teachers.

When understanding education there are many different ways which the purpose of education may be applied and defined. My personal philosophy of education is, 'educators must nurture/guide students within the academic field, to that the aims, goals and results during this task of educating or being educated are achieved '. This philosophy is used to understand that both teachers and students play an integral role in education. Academic performance, classroom methods/practices and also meeting the requirements of both the senior secondary Australian Curriculum Framework and the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers Framework are examples of these roles. This essay will discuss in detail how my personal philosophy of education, reflects on the role of teachers and learners, the aim of education and the methods and practices used in the classroom. Jean Jacques Rousseau, Paulo Freire, Locke, and Plato/Socrates are the four theorists that shall be used within this essay, to support claims and justify statements regarding this philosophy. John Dewey and A.S Neil are two non-supporting theorists that shall be used in contrast to justify this philosophy.

My teaching philosophy is to create an environment that stimulates learning so that students gain the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities to become proficient professionals. While teaching foundational knowledge is important, there are other essential skills and abilities that students must acquire in order to successfully transition from being a student to becoming a physical therapy professional. These skills and abilities include thinking critically as well as interacting and communicating effectively with patients and other health care practitioners. I emphasize to students that it is imperative to realize the impact of developing a therapeutic rapport with patients while providing quality, patient-centered care to optimize the healing process. Therefore, when deciding what to teach, I not only consider the content presented, but also how I can foster discussions with students so that they can apply information based on varying contextual factors. I also attempt to provide students a framework for how to achieve professional excellence, which I aim to model as I fulfill my roles and responsibilities as a teacher and provider of clinical instruction. This framework is rooted in five central tenets:
