Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page report discusses the Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium’s standards and specifically outlines two areas that the writer addresses as the most important of the ten standards. Teachers must do more than merely ‘offer education,’ schools are now expected to ensure that all students learn and perform at high levels. Rather than merely ‘covering the curriculum,’ teachers are expected to find ways to support and connect with the needs of all learners.” Addressing those needs was the key concern of the INTASC.

Motivational Techniques for Elementary School Students
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page paper discussing theory and technique underlying both students' intrinsic motivation and the extrinsic factors of motivation supplied by the teacher and peers. Finally, research has shown what seasoned teachers have known for years—only the students remaining active and involved will retain sufficient levels of intrinsic motivation for enhancing their learning activities. It is essential that teachers maintain an atmosphere of creative expectancy rather than encouraging only learning by rote in the elementary years, particularly for the gifted student. While most students' interest in school subjects wanes with age, allowing a gifted student to languish in boredom ahead of his classmates almost assures losing that student far too early in his age progression. Bibliography lists 23 sources.
