SUBJECT TEACHING STRATEGIES IN SCIENCE


EDUCATION

COURSE CODE 696

ASSIGNMENT NO. 2
Q1. Explain the major role of teacher while using inquiry approach in teaching of science.Also

prepare does and don’t list for implementation of inquiry approach.

to begin the use of inquiry, instructors have to first be acquainted with the conceptual

frameworks that structure the topics they teach and the "ground rules," or behavior of mind,

which might be critical to particular disciplines. To research more approximately those for

precise problem regions, see the "assets" section for some links with thoughts on in which to

start.
Questions, whether or not self-initiated or posed by using others, are on the coronary heart of

mastering by using inquiry. at the same time as questions are a part of the conventional school

room, the source, the purpose, and the level of questions are quite one of a kind. within the

traditional study room, the trainer is frequently the questioner, and the reason of questions is

often to evaluate whether or no longer students have learned and absorbed particular records.

When the instructor poses questions in an inquiry classroom, the questions are more reflective in

nature. Suitable questioning strategies are important in an inquiry school room -- mainly within

the decrease grades in which guided inquiry serves as a base for later, self-initiated questioning.

Inquiry gaining knowledge of requires being organized mentally and bodily for the technique.

The mental manner might be extra of a non-public philosophical alternate about coaching and

mastering. The physical technique has greater to do with the training of the getting to know

environment.

The teacher's position is crucial in inquiry studying, but the position isn't like that for which most

instructors were organized. The teacher becomes the chief of the gaining knowledge of, or the

facilitator of the gaining knowledge of system. Modeling is extraordinarily vital for more

youthful learners.

Early discussions and thinking before the initiation of a brand new topic or an activity may be

crucial in finding out what the learner knows, what she or he would like to understand, and

perhaps some held misconceptions. The very last step in this manner will be to decide what the

learner found out.


As a way to inspire the procedure of inquiry learning, it's far important that the instructor enables

the learner sense secure in sharing. Misconceptions can be triumph over, however it takes skill to

avoid "setting down" novices who preserve them.

Mentally and physically, the teacher must hold the four vital outcomes of inquiry in thoughts in

designing mastering sports. As mentioned in the "clarification" phase those consequences are (1)

records-processing talents, (2) behavior of thoughts, 1 or "floor guidelines," (3) content

knowledge, and (four) conceptual understanding 2.

These following questions should be requested about the deliberate

Surroundings should be enriched with learning assets in an effort to both stimulate and help

solution the rookies' inquiries. The getting to know surroundings need to contain masses of

reading substances -- books, pamphlets, journals, and magazines -- regarding the topic below

take a look at. If a laptop with CD-ROM access is available, CD-ROMs can be crucial resources

of information and lots of are interactive and encompass simulations. If get entry to the internet

is to be had, it may be a vital source of useful resource materials and resources for studying.

Relying upon the nature of the pastime, it might be important for the trainer to devise to have

components and substances available for the students to discover a number of their own

questions.

Further, to begin using inquiry, you must emerge as acquainted with numerous types of questions

and help your students learn how to analyze from them.

For an in depth dialogue of each of these forms of questions, see "explanation" segment.
Dos of Inquiry based mastering

1. Permit the students be themselves- by means of this, the concept isn't always to spoon

feed the scholars but guide the scholars to perform an assignment on their personal. College

students can have numerous questions in their mind and allow them to carry out most of these

queries and cope with it with vital thinking and evaluation.

It could so occur that at the primary strive they may fail but most importantly they may learn on

their own many stuff out of their failure. Within the second strive, they could now not succumb

to any essential state of affairs however stand up positive.

1. Linking thoughts with possibilities- in the route of discovery, the position of a teacher is

to invite the proper query and help them. Once the spark of curiosity is ignited within the college

student’s thoughts, students get encouraged to meet their interest through learning more. So right

here in an effort to arouse interest, instructors ought to give you many creative ideas with the

intention to cause the hobby in their college students after which instructors can also squeeze

inside the necessary content.

2. Allow students to talk about what worked out and what did not- inside the inquiry based

totally getting to know it's far very vital to allow the scholars to mirror their perspectives. The

concept is not simply to invite them to suppose on their opinion however also replicate upon the

procedure that labored out and what did now not. On this manner they may not just share their

views on what they have found out however how they've found out it.

Don’ts of Inquiry based learning


1. Never generalize goals- one of the crucial factors to don't forget when proceeding with

enquiry based gaining knowledge of is helping students end up specialists in their self-described

area at their own pace. So if desires are generalized, college students would no longer would no

longer discover it exciting to work upon. The academics should goal to maximize their attempt to

make their students experience the flavor of being an expert.

2. Not misleading the ideas of students- time is converting and so is our wondering

procedure. Subsequently stereotyping wondering capacity might also lie to the scholar from their

point of analysis. This need to be prevented at all cost. ‘Do I Say, No think it continually on this

path’ are certain factors which a very good trainer would never choose.

Three. in no way impose choices on students- pretty regularly than now not, instructors tend to

impose decisions for you to manipulate their school room or if they are shy from taking part in

any magnificence activities. That is certainly incorrect as it imbibes a sense of battle in the

students’ thoughts. As a substitute encourage the students to volunteer in activities and replicate

their abilities in curriculum selections.

Properly, those are few important points to take into account while considering inquiry based

totally learning method. So what are your views on it? Let us know together with your remarks

on this text as its miles only through authentic mastering procedure that a society can progress.

Q2 compare course and lesson planning for science teaching. Identify components that are

compulsory for classroom teaching.

Course plan consists of not best the goals and the content topics, however also how the topics could be taught and

what the scholars will do all through the route. So one can reap cease-of-semester goals, students ought to have

practice all through the semester. If goals focus entirely on mastery of content, then practice in reiterating and
explaining what college students have learned is suitable. Many guides try this, of course, and demonstration of

achievement of these content material mastery dreams generally entails a series of midterm and final assessments

focused largely on lower order wondering abilities inclusive of figuring out, list, explaining, describing,

summarizing, and so on.

On this tutorial, we have requested you to set goals that pass beyond mastery of content and that target permitting

college students to do better order questioning capabilities responsibilities with that content know-how by way of

the cease of the semester. Practice in content material mastery by me gets students simplest part of the way to the

desires. practice in the required higher order thinking skills articulated inside the aim is what's needed to get students

all the way there.

Every now and then it's simpler to understand through examining awful examples as opposed to exact ones. So,

allows start with examples of two courses wherein the direction plan falls short of efficiently merging dreams and

content, making it very difficult for college students to acquire the goals.

Example I: A motive force training path

• Overarching aim: college students will be secure, in a position, and confident drivers who understand and

use the policies of the road.

• content material subjects: making safe turns, backing up adequately, riding in slippery situations, middle of

the night driving, and so forth.

• Direction plan: the teacher plans to divide the path into sections and to lecture and show films to students at

some point of the path. College students will reveal know-how at some stage in the course by taking written

assessments on what is blanketed in the lectures and motion pictures. College students will take a riding test on the

cease of the path.

• Will this direction accomplish the purpose set for the scholars? Every person might agree that that is a

preposterous perception. How ought to students who've been lectured to and watched films approximately riding in

all likelihood be any accurate at driving without having had exercise behind the wheel? On the stop of the route,
college students could have masses of content material information however essentially no capacity inside the stated

intention. What students need a good way to accomplish the purpose is exercise in riding.

Example Iain Introductory Environmental Geology path

• Overarching aim: college students may be able to compare unusual areas for geologic risks and check the

danger of future assets damage.

• Large content subjects (every with imbedded content gadgets): volcanic risks, seismicity, flooding, mass

motion, coastal hazards.

• Path plan: the teacher will divide the direction into five sections that every introduce a subject, cover

associated background content items, and gift particular examples of each the hazard and associated land-use

choices.

• Will this course accomplish the intention set for the scholars?

o On the one hand, the overarching intention is strong, and the content material topics, while conventional

and not mainly imaginative, might be used to acquire the intention.

o alternatively, the course plan itself isn't always promising. The plan indicates that the course will attention

on the instructor supplying the content to the students with the assumption that, filled with a boatload of content

material, college students can be in a position at the stop of the semester to do their personal analyses and reviews of

unfamiliar conditions even though they have got had no personal practice at it in the course of the semester. that is

truely not very specific from the driving force ed route described inside the previous example.

• How might we align the direction plan higher with the goals? while the students may well be capable of

reiterate extensive content at the end of the semester, the course as planned does no longer make it in all likelihood

that the scholars will be a success at the goal of unbiased analysis due to the fact the path has not focused on
providing them practice at some point of the semester. Changing the route plan to consist of extra than insurance of

the content material subjects could do the trick.

o suppose, instead of in reality planning to cover volcanic hazards, the trainer selected to introduce the

subject and gift some case research that would illustrate now not most effective the geology however additionally

the technique of risk analysis and decision-making. If college students now not handiest learned about the case

studies but also had a threat to practice through doing quantities of the analyses themselves, they might be organized

to do a final wrap-up evaluation at the end of the section on volcanic hazards. If the teacher actually asked, "What

practice do my college student’s needs, and how can I integrate that exercise into the course?” the course would be

transformed into one that could accomplish the stated aim.

O If the subsequent section of the route constructed on students' analytical and selection-making abilities,

provided them in addition practice, and gave them steadily more independence in their analyses, the path might in

reality prepare them for impartial evaluation of geologic risks in a strange placing on the end of the path.

The message here is which you cannot simply fill students up with content material, Bing them over the head at the

end of the semester with a magic wand, and feature them be appropriate at something they have not practiced. As

you expand your path plan, the critical query to invite is, "What are the possibilities in this segment of the direction

for my students to practice something associated with the goal?"

Plan is an instructor's targeted guide that outlines what college students want to analyze, how the subject could be

brought, and the fulfillment of class desires measured. Regardless of what subject is being taught, having a lesson

plan courses the mastering procedure with the aid of providing a clear outline to follow whilst coaching. Having the

classes planned guarantees each bit of time spent in class turns out meaningful. The instructor and students might

certainly recognize what to do in the classroom.


Details of a lesson plan may additionally vary slightly depending at the situation being taught, the instructor's

choice, and the wishes of the scholars. Not each little bit of the details must be in a lesson plan. It has to be a nice-

tuned outline that builds on every duration and offers a seamless transition from one lesson to the next.

what's blanketed in a Lesson Plan?

Even as lesson plans may also range slightly from each other, there are not unusual components that construct each

one. The additives paintings together to carry out the general first-class of a lesson plan. This can, in turn, decide

how efficiently magnificence time is applied and the learning goals executed.

An awesome lesson plan that would paintings well for each instructors and students has to include the subsequent.

1. Info of the lesson

Suggest what the lesson is set and the class you're going to teach. The details have to consist of the unit, lesson

quantity, elegance duration, and the subject to be dealt with during the lesson.

2. Lesson objectives

The targets of the lesson act like the mainframe of the whole plan. Setting out targets centered through the lesson is

the most crucial element that will guide you to obtain what is predicted from the elegance. Cautiously write down

three or 4 most relevant objectives college students are predicted to achieve by the give up of the lesson. The goals

should be clever (specific, Measurable, workable, realistic, and Time-certain) and written from the learner's

perspective.

Three. Coaching aids

Listing the tools you will use to facilitate learning with the aid of attracting your college students' attention. The

teaching materials should be tailored to the learning surroundings in addition to college students' learning degrees.

From pics, flashcards, drawings, wall sheets, charts, and diagrams to real gadgets, the trainer must best write down

what the lesson will use.

Four. Lesson technique


Stages of the elegance session are just like the framework of the lesson. Lesson manner ought to training session to

harmonize the subsequent predominant degrees of a lesson:

Heat-up stage – In which you ought to share, in a single sentence, how to put together the scholars for the new

lesson.

Presentation – Have at least three focused steps to introduce the lesson's content highlighted within the framework.

The presentation should train session to capture the scholars' interest as you hammer for your lesson objectives.

Exercise – you could divide this degree into controlled, guided, and loose methods. Write one sentence indicating a

way to cowl every kind.

Five. evaluation

The evaluation stage has categories:

Assessment – Write the way to confirm the scholars executed the targets set at the beginning of the lesson. You

would possibly have questions for college students to answer in writing, or orally, give home assignments or

something suitably bringing out to what volume college students have attained the lesson dreams.

Self-evaluation – You, as a trainer, need to take time to reflect for your lesson after ending it. Write out how things

went on in the course of elegance. Have been the lesson targets well executed? Otherwise, what greater desires to be

finished to reap lesson goals?

6. Timing

During your lesson, for efficient time management, specify what time each stage will take and commit to the time-

frame. If viable, have a specific time beside every stage, undertaking, or pastime.

Q3 Describe criteria for measurement of performance of learner in laboratories. Assign weight-

age to each component with justification.


Ass segment methods ought to help the teacher solution the questions, “How do I understand the desired

gaining knowledge of has taken area? What might I need to modify about the direction to first-class support

scholar getting to know?”

Data about scholar learning can be assessed through each direct and indirect measure. Direct measures may

include homework, quizzes, assessments, reviews, essays, studies projects, case observe analysis, and rubrics

for oral and other performances. Examples of oblique measures encompass path opinions, scholar surveys,

direction enrollment information, and retention inside the fundamental, alumni surveys, and graduate school

placement rates.

Processes to Measuring scholar studying

Strategies of measuring scholar gaining knowledge of are frequently characterized as summative or formative

tests:

• Summative checks - tests, quizzes, and other graded route activities which are used to measure pupil

performance. They cumulative and regularly screen what college students have discovered on the give up of a

unit or the quilt of a course. Within a direction, summative evaluation includes the gadget for calculating

character scholar grades.

• Formative assessment  - any means by means of which college students get hold of enter and guiding

feedback on their relative overall performance to assist them improve. It could be provided face-to-face in

workplace hours, in written feedback on assignments, thru rubrics, and through emails.

Formative assessments can be used to measure pupil gaining knowledge of on a day by day, ongoing

foundation. Those tests reveal how and what students are gaining knowledge of in the course of the direction

and often inform next steps in coaching and studying. In preference to asking college students if they recognize

or have any questions, you could be greater systematic and intentional by using asking college students at the

give up of the elegance period to write down the maximum vital factors or the most difficult aspect of the
lecture on index cards. Gathering and reviewing the responses provides perception into what issues students

have retained and what your subsequent teaching steps might be. Presenting feedback on those topics to

students gives them perception into their own mastering.

You can also ask students to reflect and record on their own gaining knowledge of. Asking students to price

their knowledge approximately a topic after taking your direction compared to what they believe they knew

earlier than taking your route is an example. 

Issues for measuring scholar studying

As you expand techniques for assessing your college students recollect the subsequent:

• consist of oblique and direct exams in addition to formative and summative assessments.

• evaluate whether or now not the evaluation aligns without delay with a learning final results.

• make sure the measurement is sustainable and reasonable in phrases of time and resources, both for

the scholars and the teachers (e.g., grading, response time, and strategies). To estimate the time that scholars

need to complete one of a kind assignments, see the Rice university workload calculator.

• thinking about the usage of a mid-semester pupil survey, through the center's Mid-Semester feedback

software.

• Use the consequences of the tests to enhance the path. Examples include revising path content

material in terms of intensity vs. breadth, realignment among desires and coaching strategies, employment of

greater suitable evaluation methods, or effective incorporation of learning technologies.

Getting commenced with measuring pupil learning

At the route stage, it is helpful to review direction assignments and checks via asking:
• What are the students alleged to get out of each assessment?

• How are the exams aligned with studying effects?

• What is its intrinsic cost in terms of?

O expertise obtained?

O talent improvement?

O Values rationalization?

O performance attainment?

• How are homework and problem units associated with assessments?

• How are the tests related to each other?

• What different styles of assessment (besides checks) may be used as signs of scholar gaining

knowledge of?

• If writing assignments are used, are there sufficient of them for college kids to develop the considered

necessary abilities embedded in them?

• How is feedback on student paintings supplied to assist college students improve?

• Are the checks established in a way to help students verify their very own work and progress?

• Does the task offer proof of final results that turned into communicated? Is the proof direct or

indirect?

Q4.Discuss the role of radio and t v programs while science instruction to distance learner.
Immunization medium like TV, films, charts or other illustrations play a very important role in

promoting education. Knowledge from one person to another can be transmitted through these

mediums. Let us now briefly study some of these mediums.

Media and Educational Environment: Media like TV and Radio have led to an expansion in

education, thereby creating an educational environment. People who were deprived of formal

education can get lot of information through these media.

Media and Distance Education: When an education is important through correspondence, audio-

visual ads, like radio, telephone, or television, it is a distance education. People who want to

study with employment or while working at home can be benefited with number of open

universities which provide distance education. Broadcast of Lessons by AIR and Doordarshan

AIR and Doordarshan has organized many enrichment programmes which supplement the

classroom teaching. The TV medium is more effective than AIR as the former provides us with

the visual presentation of the study material.

Education and the Media in Future Plans: Government of India has, approved many educational

plans through radio, television and video. More Radio stations and separate educational channels

will be provided. Even a dedicated satellite system will be provided for the educational needs

of people. Lastly, a National Center of Educational Information will be established.

ROLE OF COMMUNICATION IN CULTURAL UNDERSTANDING: Communication

medium like radio, TV and cinema can help in understanding the culture of a particular

community. The characteristics like Music, dance, literature, traditions, etc. of a community can

be learnt through mediums.


Media, Religion, Language and Culture: In India people differ largely in their cultural activities.

The religion and the language of one person differ from the other. But living in the same

environmental conditions, all believe in humanism, tolerance, justice and other. Values. Media

helps in carrying messages to all these communities and plays an important role in unity and

progress.

Media and Scientific Outlook in Culture: Our leaders like Gandhi jig and Nehru jig believed in

scientific outlook in culture. Communication medium has helped us to have a belief in these

ideas, in believing the common bonds of history and in developing an objective.

Media and General Cultural Awareness: General cultural awareness of different places f India is

an easy task now-a-days through all the communication mediums. TV has helped us in knowing

the climatic conditions, the road link and in understanding the cultural mosaic of the entire

people. Evolution of Composite Culture

Media is slowly influencing the evolution of a composite culture. All the mediums like TV, radio

and cinema support the concept of composite and of exchange of literary and artistic forms

between one region and another.

IMPORTANT ARE RADIO AND TELEVISION IN EDUCATION This present age is fondly

described by many as the age of information. The fastest agents to bring the information from

place to place are radio and television. No doubt the main function of the two transmitting media

is entertainment, but their most important function is education. With radio and television, the

world itself has become a large school of formal and informal education. As far as formal

education goes, radio and television programmers go a long way to broadcast programmers to

supplement the school syllabus. In many countries there are even channels which are exclusively

for students. ... read more.


Middle

The book medium is primitive when compared with television. Through television, it is possible

to give the viewer a realistic experience, which is next in quality only to a real experience.

Certain events which cannot be seen in real life can be shown over television. It is not possible

for students to go into a volcano to see how it functions, but over television, this becomes a real

experience. Other experiences like the opening flower can never be seen except through

television or the movies. It has long ago been established by educationists the world over that

student learns better if they see rather than just listen. ... read more.

Conclusion

Besides education of children in schools, the media brings informal education to adults and

children all over the world. Musical and other cultural programmers can be seen in the privacy of

one's home. The scientific world is moving ahead in leaps and bounds. A lot of information is

getting outdated almost daily and new information is added in its place. It is the speed of radio

and television which educate people in time, so that the new information can be put to use. Such

information includes economic news and financial trends. Radio and television are certainly very

important means of education, though it can be said that because of the added factors of pictures

and movement, television is the more important of the two.

Q5. Elaborate different strategies to cope individual differences in science classrooms. Which

strategies should be adopted to teach visually impaired students?


Because all students are capable learners, you as a teacher must demonstrate that all students

are expected to fully participate in all activities. Sometimes you will want to offer options for

students to choose from, but everyone should be involved in learning.”

The following are some creative teaching strategies you can use to teach students with different

needs in the ways they learn best. It summarizes some of these methods that help to better

understand and respond to these students

Differentiate instruction. It’s important to recognize that “fairness” in education doesn’t mean

that all children are taught in the exact same way. Instead it means accounting for the needs of

individual students and adjusting the curriculum accordingly. Differentiation allows you to

provide individualized instruction by changing the pace, level, or style of teaching to engage

student strengths and interests. Students with mental health and learning disorders are not the

only children who benefit from this instructional philosophy—all children in your classroom can

achieve at higher levels when you are conscientious about providing instruction that fits how

they learn best. Differentiating instruction includes, when appropriate, reducing assignments or

extending deadlines to accommodate a child’s abilities.

Capitalize on learning styles. Students learn in a number of different ways. Visual learners learn

most effectively from visual information, while auditory learners learn best from verbal or audio

presentations. Tactile-kinesthetic learners do well when touching or moving in some way as they

take in information (experiential learning). While students can often learn to some degree in all

of these different ways, many excel in one area so that instruction based on a particular style is
much more effective than that of another. Deficits in one or more areas of learning can be

particularly common in students with learning disabilities.

Incorporate multiple intelligences into curriculum. Students often have areas of learning in

which they are particularly strong. These learning strengths can be engaged to help students

succeed in the classroom and reach their full potential. The multiple intelligences are a

framework of strengths outlined by Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner. They are linguistic,

logical-mathematical, visual- spatial, musical-rhythmic, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal,

intrapersonal, and naturalist. Most students have strengths in one or two of these areas.

Capitalize on student interests. One of the best ways to motivate students is to incorporate their

interests into the curriculum. As much as possible, allow students to choose the topics they’ll

report on in a paper or project. Also look to include interests in other smaller ways—such as in

math word problems. Tying learning to interests is a potentially powerful way to reinforce core

curriculum concepts.

Involve students in educational goals. Students perform best when they feel they are active

participants, as opposed to passive subjects, in learning. Try to involve students in creating goals

related to learning activities. Children with mental health and learning disorders may have a

negative attitude toward schoolwork so incentives are required at the outset. Your goal ultimately

should be to have students genuinely engaged in learning so that rewards become less important.

Use computerized instruction. Most students enjoy working with computers, which can stimulate

their interest in schoolwork. A wide assortment of available programs from reading instruction to

voice recognition software makes computerized instruction very relevant in helping students
with special needs. Activities and games that incorporate material from content themes can

reinforce concepts for visual and tactile learners.

Group students effectively. Group projects provide great opportunities for you to put together

the talents of students in complementary ways. A child who struggles in one aspect of a subject

may excel in another. Group students so that they can both showcase strengths and learn from

peers. Also give careful consideration to the social dynamics of groups. Children who have

mental health and learning disorders benefit from working with students who are especially kind,

patient, and empathetic.

Consider outside placement options. Some children may have needs you simply cannot meet in

the regular classroom. At these times, work with your school’s specialists to ensure skills are

developed in other settings. A child with a communication disorder might require intensive work

with a speech language pathologist. An extremely disruptive student may need to spend part of

the day in a program set up for children with serious emotional disorders.

Strategies for visual impaired

(Teachers should note that the Visiting Teacher Service for children and young people with a

visual impairment supports parents/guardians, teachers and other professionals involved with the

student. Encourage the student to use visual aids/resources that have been prescribed (e.g.

glasses, magnifiers, big-print books, etc.).

• Seat the student appropriately in the classroom (e.g. in the middle towards the front).

• Make sure lighting is suitable.

• Make efforts to eliminate the risk of glare from the desk and whiteboard.
• If possible ensure lights are coming from behind or to the side of the student.

• Give clear instructions as the student may misinterpret gestures and facial expressions.

• Consider the use of enlarged print/magnified worksheets.

• The less configurations on a page the better (worksheets can be cut in strips and stapled

together to present less work at a time).

• Print materials need to be clear and dark.

• Have lined paper for assignments (the darker the lines the better).

• Near point work should be limited to fifteen minutes or less. The student should be

encouraged to look away from his/her work, sharpen a pencil or participate in another

activity as this will allow the student to refocus his/her eyes so that the student is less

likely to become fatigued.

• Have students measure from their elbow to their fingers and tell them they need never get

closer to their work than that distance.

• Slanted desks may be of benefit to individual students.

• Provide contrast on any visual materials used: black and white is best.

• Avoid italic or ornate script. Remember that lower-case letters are easier to read than

capital letters because they have a greater number of ascenders and descenders, making

them more visually distinctive.

• Supplement visual material with clear verbal explanation.

• Require less copying from the board or elsewhere.

• Increase oral activities.

• Use concrete material and hands-on experience whenever possible.

• Allow more time to complete tasks and provide breaks to combat fatigue.
• Do not lower expectations because the student has a visual impairment.

• Provide mobility and orientation training as students with visual impairment experience

great difficulty in acquiring skills in direction, mobility and travel. This is particularly

important at post-primary level where the student may have to move for individual

subjects.

• Arrange for other students to act as buddies and use peer tutoring. Peer-groups should be

encouraged to include and support the student.

• Use the student’s name when seeking his/her attention.
