How to connect lessons to S.A.E.?
- Each lesson that you teach should have some connection to a potential S.A.E. This could include research or even job placement, but you should be able to find a connection somewhere within your lesson to S.A.E.
How long can S.A.E. be? (timewise)
- A student could begin the S.A.E. their first year in the program and carry it all the way through their high school career, as well as into college. They would potentially do this to continue towards their American degree.
I am having a hard time finding a group of 2 for the CDE project.
- You will need to be a group of 3 total. Start talking to others in the class. I know there are others that are looking, too :-)
Who is responsible for finding the S.A.E.?
- Ultimately, the student. However, the teacher and parents should be there to guide the student toward potential opportunities.
How do you decide what counts/works for an S.A.E?
- This comes down to the individual teacher to make that decision. You need to know your students well enough to determine if what they are choosing "fits" their future goals. I am sure you will talk more about this on Tuesday in class!
More detail about S.A.E., please!
- Coming to a classroom near you on Tuesday, October 22nd, 2013!
How heavy was the penguin that Ewing held?
- Oh wow, I didn't even think to ask, but I am thinking it was about 10 pounds. It was just a "little guy".
Are AET books the new system for record keeping? Are the old ones not used anymore?
- A lot of schools are moving to the AET system. Some schools still use the old books. You will hear more about both systems when we return from National FFA Convention. We have speakers that present on both books.
How did Kolb develop his experiential learning model?
How do you research the effectiveness of E.L.? (I moved this one, but I felt it fit well here!)
- Through his/his colleagues research. Check some of it out at http://www.d.umn.edu/~kgilbert/educ5165-731/Readings/experiential-learning-theory.pdf
What did you learn?
S.A.E
Experiential Learning (5 part model)
Reflection comes in many forms
The definition of Pedagogy
When students get out of agricultural education they can "do" something, because of experiential learning
How to apply the E.L. cycle
Getting students to reflect is a crucial part of the learning cycle!
"I hear, I forget"; "I see, I remember"; "I do, I understand"
Ewing held a penguin!
That kids must take what they learn, generalize, and then apply it to other situations
What do you want to learn more about?
Research on hands-on learning
- You would be amazed at how much reading/research you will find on the topics of hands-on learning and experiential learning; authentic learning, etc. just by doing a google search
S.A.E. books
- Just keep in mind that there is an S.A.E. program that students complete and they keep records of that program/project in their record book. Don't think that the record book is the only/most important part of the learning that occurs when completing an S.A.E.
The various S.A.E.'s that people have completed.
The different types of S.A.E.
- More to come on both of these next week!
How do you assess S.A.E. with what is being learned in the classroom?
- There are various ways to incorporate assessment of S.A.E. into your program, and you need to be sure to do it. You will have the opportunity to build your own assessment plan for S.A.E. and samples will be shared.
How do we incorporate the E.L. cycle into our classroom if we have limited time?
- Good planning, and you must shorten certain sections to make it happen at times OR you just need to realize that the cycle will span over several lessons.
How to make the S.A.E. component stronger in programs.
- I believe this is up to the teacher. If you make it a priority with your students, then it will be stronger in your program.
