Curriculums are the roadmaps for schools which provide purpose and direction for administrators, educators, parents, and students. Curriculum typically refers to, “the knowledge and skills students are expected to learn, which includes the learning standards or learning objectives they are expected to meet; the units and lessons that teachers teach; the assignments and projects given to students; the books, materials, videos, presentations, and readings used in a course; and the tests, assessments, and other methods used to evaluate student learning.” (Curriculum, 2015, para. 1) Curriculums may come in many shapes and forms, whether they’re purchased as a package at the school or district level or they’re created or refined by educators and …show more content…
In many instances, that answer will vary from school district to school district. In my district, the superintendent and curriculum coordinator will pass on their expectations and goals regarding any particular curriculum to each individual principal. During this process, the principal will also have the opportunity to share their goals and expectations for their respective schools. If either the school or district have more than one curriculum in which they’re looking at, the principals will then take those recommendations to their respective schools. There they’ll seek collaboration from the school’s leadership team to determine possibilities and implementation strategies. However, if there is just one curriculum which they’re interested in, the superintendent may choose to skip the last step, as long as everyone is in agreeance. Once all parties are satisfied, the superintendent, along with the curriculum coordinator will then take their recommendations to the school board for approval. With regards to public schools, this type of process seems to be the norm. In a study conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics, which asked principals who they believed had the most influence in curriculum decisions, they reported that, “about half of these principals also reported themselves, teachers, and school boards to have ‘a great deal’ of influence.” (para.

I was wondering if you can call Deanna Strong and explain to her, we have a balance of $9.30, which is over 120 days and is not covered under her T&H. It is for unleaded gas, and we need payment for it. I told her a couple of months ago, and she said she was going to pay but I think she got confused. I will spread the T&H credit to the open invoice 2380625.
I wanted to take a minute to send you a summary and timeline of the events that took place on Tuesday, July 28, 2015 where voice and data services were unavailable for approximately 1 hour.
On Saturday, September 12, 2015, I was assigned to the 6 Northwest as the security officer. At approximately 0500 hours while breakfast trays were being distributed in pod 100, an inmate, later identified as Kimmie Hawkins became insolent and advised me to get out of the pod. I immediately asked him whom he was talking to and simultaneously walked over to him to view his armband. As I reached for Inmate Hawkins’s left wrist, he snatched away from me, got in a boxing stance, and began bouncing rhythmically on his toes. Therefore, I retrieved my T.A.S.E.R. from its holster and gave Inmate Hawkins loud verbal commands to get on the floor. However, he refused to follow my orders; therefore, I pushed him toward the wall and continued to instruct
Melissa is driving through her neighborhood, talking on a cell phone. Because she is distracted, she missed the new stop sign that was put in at an intersection. A police officer sees this and promptly pulls her over. When asked why she didn’t stop at the stop sign, Melissa replies that she didn’t see the sign. Melissa most likely did see the sign, her brain just didn’t process it correctly.

First off, I have to say in my ENTIRE professional career, I've NEVER seen such a creatively powerful professional profile picture than what you are displaying! "HATS OFF TO YOU"
Reading Decoding Composite: There were two different tests in this section. The first one required Lisa to read actual words, and the second had her read made up words that followed phonics rules. Lisa scored below average on each of these sections, but she has started to obtain a basic understanding how to decode words. Due to her difficulty in being able to read, Lisa will have difficulty reading and completing assignments in the classroom.
It was just a typical night on April 20th, 2015, that I was on my computer talking with my friend through Skype who gave me the idea to make an account on Skout because I was stil trying to get over the break up with Chris. And that's how it all started.... I was just scrolling down then I noticed a certain picture of someone that caught my attention. And it was YOU. I knew from the moment I saw your picture on Skout I know you were gonna be someone special in my life. I didn't know wether or not to message you first or wait and see if you were to ever message me first. But my friend told me to take the courage to send you a simple message to see if you would even message.The next day to my suprise to see that you had actually replied. You
Understanding the way A.I. works is crucial to understanding A.I. goals. There are several traits that separate Artificial Intelligence from regular machines. One such trait is an A.I.’s ability to “think” through Neural Networks, which are networks made of simulated neurons and neuron layers designed to process and evaluate data. The simulated neurons are individual receptors designed to process and evaluate inputs. Following their evaluation, the neurons send an output to another simulated neuron in the next neuron layer. These neuron layers are layers of simulated neurons grouped by what type of input they receive and output they produce, that scales in complexity (Knight). MIT tech review senior editor Will Kight provided the example of
Being able to compress indexes and dictionaries and yet still use them functionally is very worthwhile. Given my own experience with information retrieval and my understanding of how internet 4.0 is developing this type of function seems like a key feature to achieving a functional system. I’m looking forward to what we are doing with our own project going forward.
While preparing for this particular assignment I was able to examine and learn about FEAP standards, read chapter 1 of Integrating Educational Technology for Teaching and Take the Tech Survey to self-assess myself as a future educator. While completing the requirements of this week I learned the importance of technology regarding education. Even though I knew the importance I don’t think until completing the survey I really understood how much technology is integrated into the educational experience. While taking the survey I realized that there were different categories of technology within education. The fact that there were many different categories within this subject shocked me. When I first signed up to take this course I didn’t think
Lesson Standard- Grade 1: Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrases based on grade 1 reading and content, choosing flexibly from an array of strategies.
Brady and Kennedy (2010) define the term curriculum as ‘the means by which young people and adults gain the essential knowledge, skills and attributes they need to be productive and informed citizens in a democratic society.’ However the term has many varied definitions, it can be described as being the subject matter, the overall plan for teaching or the outcome of what is taught (Wiles, 2005). Marsh and Willis (cited in Marsh, 2009, p. 3) break curriculum down into three individual areas of ‘planned curriculum’, the objectives and aims, ‘enacted curriculum’, how the objectives are
Although it is impossible to agree on just one definition of curriculum, one can understand the idea based on how it functions in relation to education practice by aligning the three major types of curriculum, which are intended curriculum, implemented
