Respond to the following ....use 200 or more words APA format with one in text citation“I most identified with Watkins qualitative dissertation. Lavrakas and Roller as cited by Watkins (2016) explained qualitative research is conducted to better understand human condition about a research issue that quantitative data does not address and in this case, an opportunity to gather a story and share perspectives, rather than numerical representation was provided. The structures of chapter 4 provided the descriptive data for participates and different sources of data. Watkins (2016) used three forms of data to study, individual interviews, a two-part questionnaire and artifacts from three schools. The questionnaire open response items were listed along with teacher responses. Next the researcher identified the study’s research questions and transcribed themes for all three questions. Chapter five continues the discussion by providing researcher’s explanation of findings, a discussion of the outcomes relative to the literature, limitations, implications of findings, recommendations for future research, and the conclusion of the study (Watkins, 2016).BrandWatkins, T.

Differentiated ActivitiesDifferentiation is one of the most important considerations when preparing a lesson plan for all students. Differentiation guides the teacher in making the instructional modifications required to meet the diverse needs of all students, plan for varying levels of development, and create opportunities for various approaches to learning and performance.This lesson will be focused in the content area of geometry.Part 1: Differentiation Lesson PlanFor this assignment, select a K-8 grade level and state standard in the area of geometry and use the "COE Lesson Plan Template" to design an original lesson plan. Be sure to examine instructional opportunities that can be adapted to meet the diverse needs of students, create learning environments that foster active engagement through supportive, and design assessments that align to learning objectives and support learning needs.Use the “Class Profile” to differentiate to meet the diverse needs of students.Part 2: ReflectionIn 250-500 words, summarize and reflect on your lesson plan and the differentiation strategies utilized to meet the diverse needs of students. How can technology-enriched learning experiences provide various opportunities to differentiate? How can you collaborate with and incorporate the input, contributions, and knowledge of families, colleagues, and other professionals in order to support the diverse needs of students?Support your reflection with at least two scholarly resources.While APA format is not required for this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. Refer to the LopesWrite Technical Support articles for assistance.Clinical Field Experience D: Assessment and FeedbackAllocate at least 1 hour in the field to support this field experience.For this field experience, you will assess students, provide feedback, and reflect on instructional strategies.Part 1: AssessmentIn the previous field experience, you designed and implemented a lesson that provided additional learning support to the selected group of students. In the final piece of the assessment process, you will conduct a final assessment for the group of students. Your assessment should be designed to determine mastery of identified standards. Prior to completing the assessment, review the pre-assessment to determine appropriate concepts are measured in the final assessment. Once your assessment is complete, ask your mentor teacher to review it for approval.Administer the assessment to the group of students. You can provide multiple assessment methods (oral, written, technology driven, etc.), and differentiate assessment based on the needs of the group of students.Part 2: Provide FeedbackIndividually, meet with each student to review his or her assessment results. During each conference, ask the following questions to engage each student:How do you feel about the material?What was challenging?What was easy?During this time, begin with a positive strength of each student. Provide effective, descriptive feedback by identifying instructional goals for the student to continue working on. End on a positive note that shows compassion, justice, and concern.Part 3: ReflectionIn 250-500 words, reflect on the overall field experiences of pre-assessing, implementing instruction, assessment, and feedback. What gaps did you notice in the process? How can this be done on the whole classroom level? Explain how you will use your findings in your future classroom.Support your reflection with 3-5 scholarly resources.Submit a description or copy of your assessment, along with a 250-500 word reflection on providing instructional feedback to the students, as one deliverable.APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. Refer to the LopesWrite Technical Support articles for assistance.Document the locations and hours you spend in the field on your Clinical Field Experience Verification Form.Submit the Clinical Field Experience Verification Form to LoudCloud in the last topic.
