A score of 85% or higher must be achieved in order to receive a final grade in the course. The exam is available online and may be repeated as many times as necessary to attain the minimal score of 85%. Questions have been derived from information that would have been included in HLTH 205, 313, 335 and might appear on standardized tests such as Praxis II. The scores for each retake will be posted in Blackboard My Grades. Passing scores must be completed by September 10, 2011. ONLINE QUIZZES (100 pts.): As part of the online part of this course, students will be assigned reading in addition to that schedule for review in class. Fourteen quizzes worth ten points each will be completed online based on assigned readings. The readings will coincide with the topic/s being reviewed in-class during the assigned week. Each quiz will only be available for completion during the period prior to and on the date scheduled for the quiz and is timed to allow 30 minutes to complete 10 True-False, Multiple Choice or Matching Questions. Quizzes will not be reopened after the due date unless except as determined by the HLTH 465_ Comprehensive School Health Education pag: 082611 2 401282215 instructor. It is expected that you will complete all quizzes independent of other classmates. Quizzes will be scored online and available for you to review immediately. HEALTH EDUCATION CURRICULUM OUTLINE (100 pts.): Each student will outline one assigned curriculum content area of health education curriculum or Family Life/Human Sexuality. The outline will be reviewed in class within the first month of class. FIVE – 50 MINUTE MODEL LESSONS (250 pts.). Before and during the Practicum experience, a minimum of five health education lessons are to be written. Each will include the following contents of the Madeline Hunter model of lesson design: 1. Lesson Objective; 2. Anticipatory Set; 3. Teaching/Instructional Process: (Input, modeling, and checking for understanding); 4. Guided Practice and Monitoring; 5. Closure, and 6. Independent Practice. Examples of these lessons will be reviewed during instructor-led classes and previous copies will be posted on Blackboard. Most of these lessons will be based on the needs of the schools where students will be completing your practica. One will include a video clip that you produce. This lesson will use a video clip developed using Camtasia Studio during the course. IN-CLASS MICROTEACHING EXPERIENCES (100 pts.) Each student will be provided multiple opportunities to address classroom behaviors while teaching a brief lesson of his/her choice. Microteaching also provides a number of students an opportunity to address a common student behavior and experiment with different methods of addressing it. SCHOOL PRACTICUM –PEER MENTORING AND LESSON DEMONSTRATIONS (270 pts.): Three possible placements may be available – Prince Edward County High or Middle Schools and one of two local private schools. The practicum may include two responsibilities: assisting the classroom teacher and demonstrating student developed or model lesson. Each student may be assigned to two schools for five weeks each, ten weeks total. You will be teaching one day and observing one day during each of these weeks. Your schedule and assigned placement will determine your responsibilities. Depending on the number of lessons you present, grading will be as follows: 10% - Weekly Reflection paper, 25% - Your Evaluation of the Lesson, 25% - Partner’s Evaluation and 40% Instructor’s Evaluation of the Lesson. Each week you will complete a journal entry reflecting on your experience. These Weekly Reflections will be submitted the Saturday of each week. A minimum of five to a maximum of ten (one per week of the practicum) will be graded worth 100 total points. The remaining entries will be related to other assigned classroom experiences. When teaching you will be paired with at least one other student. You will be video-taped during a minimum of three to five teaching experiences. You will be required to watch the video, evaluate yourself using the rubric provided, write a complete reflection of the teaching experience and submit everything including the lesson plan and any hand-outs that were used to the instructor by 3:00 PM of Friday of the week the lesson was taught or Monday of the following week if you teach on Friday. ONE COMPREHENSIVE EXAM (200 pts.): There will be one comprehensive exam worth 200 points. See the class calendar for the Chapters of the required text and reading assignments. Each test may include a mix of a.) multiple choice, b.) true/false, c) fill-ins, d) listing, e) matching, f) short answer, and g) defining. The Final will be a combination of a take-home and HLTH 465_ Comprehensive School Health Education pag: 082611 3 401282215 in-class paper-and-pencil format. Online quizzes will provide examples of questions that will be used in the final. The exam is scheduled for December 6, 8-10:30 AM. VIDEOTAPES: When submitting the tapes, they should be cued to the beginning of the demonstration. If they are not cued, 10% of the grade will be deducted. Once the instructor views a tape, it will be rewound to the beginning. However, it is the student’s responsibility to make sure they are rewound before next use. Tapes that end early (because they were not rewound) or were not completed because of technical problems will negatively impact the student’s grade. Please use the recording date stamp to identify the date of your presentation. PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE: “Men must wear dress shirts, slacks and ties. Women are to wear slacks, blouses or skirts/ dresses. Students may not chew gum or wear head gear. Tennis shoes, flip flops and other casual shoes are not appropriate. Men should be clean shaven unless they have groomed facial hair. Identification badges should be worn at all times and the teacher candidate MUST sign-in when entering the school.” – p. 26. Physical & Health Education Teacher Education Program Admission and Retention Handbook 2011-2012 (Rev. 8/11) ATTENDANCE: Attendance will be recorded each class session. Students are expected to attend all classroom and lab classes. For this 15-week class, you cannot miss more than four (4) class meetings. Missing scheduled practicum visits during the semester will not be tolerated. Any student that misses more than 4 classes or one practicum visits will receive one letter grade lower for each absence than the computed average for the final grade (e.g., five absences or one unexcused practicum class – one letter grade lower). If 25% of the scheduled classes have been missed for excused or unexcused absences during the entire course, an “F” will be given. An absence may also be considered excused if deemed so by the instructor. A typed memo/letter (including supporting documentation) should be submitted to the instructor (not by email) within one week of the absence. Should the need arise for a student to be absent from class the student is responsible for the material covered in class as well as any assignments due on the day he/she was absent and on subsequent class meetings. Students are responsible for obtaining material presented during the missed class. Makeup for missed exams and assignments will not be allowed unless prior permission for the absence is provided and approved. In the event of a missed exam the student must notify the instructor within 24 hours of the completion of the exam or the student will receive a zero. Notify both the practicum teacher and instructor if an absence from a practicum class is expected. Preferably, this should be the night before the absence. BLACKBOARD: This course will use Web-based software, which integrates course materials with communication tools. Blackboard will allow students to access all information related to this course including: grades, attendance, course syllabus, online quizzes, and the ability to communicate with other students on topics identified by the instructor. Throughout the course announcements and discussion topics may appear on the Blackboard. Students are responsible to check for these weekly. These features will be discussed in class during the first and second class meetings. COMMUNICATION BY EMAIL: Students are encouraged to utilize electronic mail as the primary mode of communication during this course. However, two very important points must be made regarding email communication. First, all communication should take place using the HLTH 465_ Comprehensive School Health Education pag: 082611 4 401282215 email address provided to you by the university. Second, all email communications to your instructor should include the following information within the subject heading: HLTH465_LastNameFirstInitial_ Content of Message. (Example: HLTH465_GapinskiP_Lesson 1) CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR/DECORUM: Student behavior that interferes with either the ability of the instructor to conduct class or the ability of students to benefit from instruction is not acceptable. Examples include routinely entering class late or leaving class early, use of cell phones and other electronic devices, repeatedly talking in class without being recognized, talking while others are speaking, or arguing in a way that is perceived as crossing civility lines. In the event a student legitimately needs to activate a cell phone or pager during class, prior notice and approval of the instructor is required. The classroom is not a place for children. If children require care, the student is expected to provide that care in an environment other than the classroom. Consequnces for any disruptive behavior will be a grade reduction of 10 points for each occurrence. ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT: The academic community relies on a high standard of integrity. One of the most important aspects of this integrity concerns the just measure of each student's academic accomplishments, typically evaluated through written examination or submitted work. It is essential that instructors be assured the work used to evaluate a student's performance is genuinely his/her own. Cheating on exams, copying the lesson plan of a fellow student or other source, attempting to benefit from the work of another student, or other behavior that defeats the intent of an exam or assignment is unacceptable. These offenses include plagiarism, improper acknowledgement of sources, the submission of a paper, leson plan or project in more than one course without permission, or failing to complete work as assigned (e.g., individually). Penalties for academic misconduct are serious and will result in an “F” in the course and referral to the Honor Board. SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS AND ACCOMMODATIONS: It is the responsibility of the student to inform the instructor of any special educational needs and accommodations that may need to be provided during the first week of class. A student may also be eligible for specialized educational learning services. Contact: The Office of Disability Support Services at (434) 395-2391 to inquire about these services.
