Contextual Influences on Learning Presentation

 

Contextual factors play an integral role in the learning process. Outside factors, such as families, culture, socioeconomic dynamics, and family discipline routines, can have a profound effect on student development and readiness for learning. Teachers who recognize these factors equip themselves to meet the learning needs of diverse student populations. Additionally, by modifying instruction or procedures to address all of the students’ contextual factors, they will have an increased likelihood of academic success.

Create an 8-10 slide digital presentation for a teacher professional development on how contextual factors affect student learning.

Include the following:

· How social interactions, culture, society, and technology can affect student development and readiness for learning.

· How the contextual factors could be addressed in classroom instruction.

· Two specific examples of how you would modify classroom instruction to address contextual factors (e.g., you provide an Internet-based family activity, but several of your students’ families do not have Internet access at home.) How would you modify the activity?

· A title slide, a reference slide, and presenter’s notes.

The digital presentation should include graphics that are relevant to the content, visually appealing, and use space appropriately.

Support your presentation with 2-3 scholarly resources.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the GCU Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

In other words, explain how this person’s personality would be described by each of those theorists.  Explain how their personality developed the way it did, from Maslow’s  and Rogers’s perspectives.
  4. If the person you described  experiences psychological issues or psychopathology, explain how humanistic theory can be used to restore a state of health and psychological well-being to the person. In other words, if they suffer from anxiety, depression or other disorders, how would humanistic  theorists like Maslow and Rogers help them overcome those disorders?

Include  speaker notes below each content-related slide that represent what  would be said if giving the presentation in person. Expand upon the   information included in the slide and do not simply restate it. Please  ensure the speaker notes include 50-75 words per slide.
