Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)
Group Work/Collaborative Learning: - Organise interactive presentations, video analysis, and debates. - Divide the class into mixed-ability groups and task them with designing and applying programme execution and logic instructions to solve an identified problem. - Ensure the group division promotes inclusivity and equity, considering the needs of learners with visual impairment, dyslexia, dysgraphia, etc. SEL: When teaching students about Programme Execution and Logic Instruction, you can integrate Social Emotional Learning (SEL) principles to create an engaging and supportive learning experience. Here are some SEL features you can incorporate into this specific topic: Self-awareness: - provides opportunities for self-assessment of their skills and progress in applying these concepts to manipulate data. - helps students to recognise their emotions and attitudes towards the topic, supporting their self-confidence and self-efficacy. Self-management: - guides students in setting goals and planning their work. - fosters resilience and perseverance by supporting students in managing challenges and setbacks they may encounter during the learning process. Social awareness: - promotes collaborative learning by assigning group projects or activities to learners. - encourages students to share their knowledge and expertise with their peers, creating a supportive learning community. Relationship skills: - promotes teamwork and collaboration by encouraging students to work together to solve complex problems and share their insights and solutions. - emphasises the value of giving and receiving constructive feedback, Responsible decision-making: - encourages learners to make informed decisions. - encourages critical thinking and reflection. Teaching and Learning Materials: - * Notepad or exercise book * Pen * Smartphones * Laptops - Projector - * Flash Drive * Desktop computers * Tablets * TV and Radio - Open Educational Resources (including YouTube, MOOCs - - Udemy/Coursera, Khan Academy, and TESSA) - * The iBox/iCampus (CENDLOS) * Productivity tools ix. Subject-based application software - Instructional laboratories (with multimedia equipment and smartboards) - Maintenance and repair workshops Assessment (3.1.1.AS.1). The document marks these depth-of-knowledge levels for this indicator: Level 4 Extended critical thinking and reasoning.
