This book was released on 2017 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lack of published research on student perception and understanding of differentiated learning hinders educators attempting to diversify learning for individual students. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to investigate the perception and understanding of differentiated instruction of middle school students in a charter middle school in central Florida, as a review of literature reveals limited research conducted from a student perspective. The study will broaden existing educational practices in relation to individualized student differentiated instruction and suggest a relationship between differentiated instruction and student understanding of educational material. The brain-based theories guiding this study are Piaget’s theory of cognitive development, Vygotsky’s theory of social constructivism, and Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, as each of them support the necessity for differentiated instruction within the classroom. The participants were selected from a public charter middle school in central Florida. The researcher used a sample size of 10 students to achieve saturation of themes for purposeful sampling to identify middle school students from classrooms where differentiated instruction practices are the documented norm. The researcher used intake surveys, face-to-face interviews, student engagement observations, and reflective notes to collect data and answer three research questions: RQ1. How does the participating middle school student describe his or her perception and understanding of differentiated instruction?; RQ2. Which, if any, specific differentiated practices do students think are best utilized by teachers to enhance individual perception of academic achievement?; RQ3. What changes do students perceive as necessary for successful individualized instruction? The data was organized, analyzed using a phenomenological reductive method, and amalgamated to extract, compare, explore, and reassemble significant segments and themes of collected data. According to the participant research, two themes, student mindset and presentation of the material, were at the forefront of the student discussion; there were two underlying sub-themes which included life connectedness, and small group, project-based work. The research showed that students are aware of their educational environment and crave an academic environment which allows them to connect with the material through interaction and manipulation. Recommendations for future research include: expanding the participant pool through the inclusion of high school age students; expanding the study to include both area public and private schools; varying the regional areas in which the study was conducted; using the same grade level but expanding to varying middle schools across the country; including teachers and administrators to gauge their understanding and perception of differentiated instruction; broadening the study through quantitative research; and exploring the varied instructional strategies within the classroom to determine effectiveness.
Download or read book The Science of Learning and Development written by Pamela Cantor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential text unpacks major transformations in the study of learning and human development and provides evidence for how science can inform innovation in the design of settings, policies, practice, and research to enhance the life path, opportunity and prosperity of every child. The ideas presented provide researchers and educators with a rationale for focusing on the specific pathways and developmental patterns that may lead a specific child, with a specific family, school, and community, to prosper in school and in life. Expanding key published articles and expert commentary, the book explores a profound evolution in thinking that integrates findings from psychology with biology through sociology, education, law, and history with an emphasis on institutionalized inequities and disparate outcomes and how to address them. It points toward possible solutions through an understanding of and addressing the dynamic relations between a child and the contexts within which he or she lives, offering all researchers of human development and education a new way to understand and promote healthy development and learning for diverse, specific youth regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or history of adversity, challenge, or trauma. The book brings together scholars and practitioners from the biological/medical sciences, the social and behavioral sciences, educational science, and fields of law and social and educational policy. It provides an invaluable and unique resource for understanding the bases and status of the new science, and presents a roadmap for progress that will frame progress for at least the next decade and perhaps beyond.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This phenomenological research study, using three tiers of interview and focus group data, described the attitudes and perceptions of middle students towards the Character, Advisory, Remediation, Enrichment, and School Spirit (CARES) program implemented at a rural middle school in north Georgia. The CARES program is a middle school advisement program designed to better meet the needs of the adolescent learner with the intent of creating a caring learning community which supports the social, emotional, and academic needs of middle school students. Results of the study showed that the students perceived the CARES program positively. Specifically, students communicated high levels of listening, advisory, and academic support from their teachers during the CARES program. Furthermore, students felt as if the program allowed them to socialize with their peers as well as assist them in the development of good character. The students expressed a desire for higher levels of autonomy and independence, and also welcomed more opportunities to know their teachers and increase levels of trust within the teacher-student relationship. There were no significant differences in attitudes and perceptions between grade level and academic eligibility (general, special, and gifted education).
