Classroom Community Research Paper

Classroom Community Upon completion of my graduate studies in education I hope to soon begin my career teaching English studies to young adults and a Christian University. In my class, I hope to show my student the importance of reading and writing. I want them to understand the importance of critical thinking and how it can help them become more aware of their inner selves. I believe we should be just as friendly to the Earth as it is to us so I hope to implement my feelings about the environment in each class I instruct. When I enrolled in my first online class, I found it quite difficult adjusting from face-to-face verbal communication with my instructor to a more technologically based means of communication. Though I had
I will treat my student like the college student they are. I will implement on a certain day out of the week in which my student can me for lunch or breakfast to discuss class-related topics. My office door will always be open encouraging my student to drop by with any question on designated times. I will make my self seen on campus at student events and activities to show them that I support the various aspects of their lives. My students will be able to reach me via face-to-face meetings, emails, my home and cell, as well as discussion boards.

Through the use of cooperative learning, I will unite my class and create an overall feeling of acceptance and community for my students that will help the work together more effectively. Sharing completed work give my students a sense of appreciation for the work of others and a sense of pride in their own accomplishments. It will help build self-esteem and a sense of community all at the same time. Think-Pair-share and short collaborative learning technique that is ideally suited for all learners. In think-pair-share, I poses a challenging or open-ended question and gives learner one minute to think about the question. Learners then pair with a collaborative group member or neighbor sitting nearby and discuss their ideas about the question for several minutes. The think-pair-share structure gives all learners the opportunity to discuss their ideas. This is important because learners start to construct their knowledge in these discussions and also to find out what they do and do not know. After several minutes, I ask the comments to be shared with the whole group. The think-pair-share structure also helps to enhance oral communication skills as they
