Meeting Standard Four:

The student teacher exhibits confident control over a variety of approaches to classroom pedagogy.  In direct presentations, s/he demonstrates sensitivity to pacing, timing, amount and sequencing of material, and form of presentations, as well as inviting student contributions and interactions.  Questioning strategies are thoughtful, considering a range and arc of questions that develop logically from simple to complex.  Group work is used effectively and students are carefully coached on the purpose and strategies for collaboration.  Work required of students clearly reinforces basic skills (reading, writing, note-taking, oral presentation, listening) and builds toward more complex mastery (critical thinking, problem-solving, analysis, and synthesis). Technology skills are incorporated into lessons as frequently as possible, with the student teacher modeling the use of technology whenever possible.
