Intelligence Testing

• www.ece353expert.com
• Addressing Bias in Intelligence Testing. Daniel,
  an eight-year-old child from a poor, inner-city
  neighborhood, is given a traditional IQ test. One
  section of the IQ test involves defining various
  words. Yacht is one of the words that Daniel is
  asked to define. Briefly discuss why the test
  administrator should be cautious when
  interpreting Daniels performance on this test.
  How does the triarchic theory potentially counter
  this bias? Develop and share three questions, one
  for each component of the triarchic theory
  (analytic, creative, and practical), that would
  provide a more accurate representation of
  Daniels intelligence

  development. Provide an analysis of his model as
  well as the challenges to it.

• FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT
• www.ece353expert.com
• Cultural Tools. Cultural tools shape cognitive
  development and can include both technical tools,
  which act on the environment, and psychological
  tools, which are tools for thinking. Discuss
  Vygotskys belief that language is the most
  significant of the cultural tools. Do you agree
  or disagree? Examine the given images of other
  psychological tools. Choose one of the given
  tools and discuss how that tool may influence
  cognitive development from the perspective of the
  sociocultural theories. What do you feel are the
  ramifications of your tool on student learning?
  Is your chosen tool an example of the ratchet
  effect? Defend your answer.

• www.ece353expert.com
• Educational Innovations. Many educational
  innovations, such as dynamic assessment and FCL
  (Fostering Communities of Learners) classrooms,
  have incorporated insights about learning and
  development from the sociocultural theories.
  Choose either dynamic assessment or FCL. Define
  your choice, and discuss how it incorporates
  insights about learning and development from the
  sociocultural theories. Develop one activity that
  effectively illustrates your chosen educational
  innovation in practice.

  Patricia Kuhl, entitled The Linguistic Genius of
  Babies.
•  
• How do her findings support language acquisition
  in regard to phonology as it is described in
  Chapter Six of your text? Include a discussion of
  the need for a social context when developing
  phonological awareness and why. How did your own
  social context impact your phonological awareness?

• FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT
• www.ece353expert.com
• Memory Facilitation. Older children typically
  remember more than younger children. Identify and
  describe two strategies that older children use
  to facilitate their memories. Reflecting on your
  own personal experiences, what strategies do you
  employ to improve your memory? Discuss the
  relevance of strategies that facilitate memory
  within the context of classroom instruction.
  Share one instructional strategy that you feel is
  highly effective for most students.

• Connecting to Classroom Practices. In a one- to
  two-page journal entry, write a self-reflection.
  What is the relevance of this course to best
  practices in the classroom? In other words, how
  can an understanding of how children think
  improve your teaching skills, particularly in
  terms of differentiating student needs and
  abilities? Do you feel that you currently utilize
  an understanding of cognitive development in your
  own teaching?

Representation

• FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT
• www.ece353expert.com
• Theories of Concept Representation. Identify and
  describe one of the three major theories of
  concept representation defining-features,
  probabilistic, or theory-based. What is the
  mechanism of conceptual development in your
  chosen theory? Provide an example (not given in
  the text) that illustrates the mechanisms of your
  chosen theory. How would a child likely respond
  to a given scenario from the perspective of your
  chosen theory?

• www.ece353expert.com
• False Belief Tasks. According to your text, the
  gold standard that researchers use to
  demonstrate understanding of belief is success on
  tasks that require understanding of ones own or
  another persons false belief (Siegler, 2005,
  pg. 318). Young children often fail false belief
  tasks. This finding has been interpreted in a
  number of different ways. Give an original
  example of a false belief task that could be
  given to a three-year-old (do not use an example
  from the text). Describe an interpretation of
  childrens poor performance on false belief
  tasks. c on false belief tasks. How can preschool
  teachers utilize their knowledge of student
  performance on these tasks as well as their
  knowledge of performance enhancers when planning
  for instruction?

ECE 353 Week 5 DQ 1 Planning in Problem Solving

• FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT
• www.ece353expert.com
• Planning in Problem Solving. Young children often
  fail to plan, even when doing so would facilitate
  their problem-solving performance. Select and
  describe one of the five reasons that children
  may fail to plan given on pages 357-358 of your
  text. Construct a classroom-based scenario that
  illustrates your chosen reason. What is the
  implication of your reason when considering the
  differing needs of students while planning for
  classroom instruction? What is one strategy that
  teachers can use to mediate the effects of these
  failures and support the problem-solving skills
  of their young students?

ECE 353 Week 5 DQ 2 Learning in Context

• FOR MORE CLASSES VISIT
• www.ece353expert.com
• Learning in Context. Context influences
  childrens performance in mathematics. This was
  illustrated in Carraher and colleagues (1985)
  classic study of Brazilian street vendors.
  Describe the method and results of Carraher and
  colleagues study, and discuss how the results
  support the claim that childrens mathematical
  problem-solving performance depends on context.
  Do you feel that these findings can also be
  applied to other academic areas? Provide a
  specific example of how a classroom teacher might
  use this research to facilitate learning in the
  classroom.
