Teaching and Learning Plan

Teaching and Learning Plan

Teaching and Learning Plan is a broad term that includes a conceptual framework, instructional procedures, behavior Plan techniques, physical organization of the Teaching and Learning, integration of reinforcement and instruction, evaluation activities, and a year-long planning model. How teachers manage their Teaching and Learnings is related to students' performance on academic and behavior measures. Efficient models of effective Teaching and Learning Plan are comprehensive in that instruction and behavior Plan are merged into an integrated system. All aspects of teaching and managing are considered: (a) instructional delivery, (b) curriculum design, (c) grouping students, and (d) use of time for instruction. In addition, an instructional approach to Teaching and Learning Plan is proactive in that before a behavior problem occurs, teachers carefully and strategically arrange their Teaching and Learnings to encourage student participation in all learning activities, as well as to teach students the necessary social skills to behave appropriately. More important, teaching critical social skills systematically sets up numerous opportunities for reinforcing what has been taught and directly communicates to students whether they are meeting expectations. An effective model of Teaching and Learning Plan has the following eight features.

Feature 1: Developing a Conceptual Framework. The basic assumption of an instructional model of Teaching and Learning Plan is that teachers first teach students how to behave in every circumstance for which teachers expect appropriate behavior. Teachers readily initiate opportunities to teach and reinforce new behaviors. Potential Teaching and Learning Plan problems are approached exactly like instructional problems. Teachers must ensure that all students have access to instructional content, evaluate the students' ability to follow Teaching and Learning rules, and teach all skills necessary for learning. Thus, teachers know what behavioral skills have been taught, reviewed, and mastered, just as they know what specific reading or mathematics skills have been taught. Teachers avoid making the faulty assumption that a student who engages in behavior problems has the ability to perform appropriately in the Teaching and Learning.

Feature 2: Being Proactive. One important feature of an effective Teaching and Learning Plan model is that it is proactive, meaning that teachers institute strategies to prevent learning and behavior problems before a problem occurs instead of reacting to problems. A proactive approach to Teaching and Learning Plan typically includes, but is not limited to, the following teaching and Plan activities:

Identify, teach, and post rules for appropriate behavior.

Remind students of the rules for behaving appropriately.

Create and maintain a positive, warm, and supportive Teaching and Learning environment in which students feel comfortable and are academically engaged.

Establish a clear and consistent routine for moving about the Teaching and Learning and carrying out general Teaching and Learning activities.

Implement research-based instructional strategies.

Accommodate student needs by adjusting schedules and lesson demands on a case-by-case basis.

Feature 3: Aligning Phases of Instruction. Teaching unfolds in a fairly predictable direction and comprises three distinct phases: before, during, and after. No one phase of instruction is more important than another, and each of the three phases ...
