Methods of Instruction. All courses of instruction will comply with state statutes and the rules of the Idaho State Board of Education.
1. Traditional Face-to-Face Instruction
a. Traditional face-to-face teaching means a course taught by a person who holds a certificate pursuant to Idaho Code § 33-1201 and 33-1207, and where the students and teachers are not separated by distance or time.
b. Teachers will be engaged in the act of face-to-face teaching throughout the day using a variety of proven teaching techniques including: tactile, visual, kinesthetic, auditory, group, and independent approaches. By taking into account and addressing the varying developmental rates and learning modalities of the student population, it is possible through this direct-teaching and monitoring approach to keep curricula challenging and the expectations for learning high.
Methods of Instruction. A. Multimedia Presentations
B. Lecture
C. Discussion
D. Homework: Students are required to complete two hours of outside-of-class homework for each hour of lecture
Methods of Instruction. In the event the credits in question are in courses which are in "methods of instruction" in the teacher's current teaching assignment, the teacher shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Credit Evaluation Committee the need for such further preparation and training in such teacher's "methods of instruction" in his or her current teaching assignment.
Methods of Instruction. Methods of instruction shall mean professional education preparation designed to prepare the individual as a teacher in his or her field of academic preparation.
Methods of Instruction. The instructors will use a variety of instructional methodologies to teach theory and skills required to provide care for residents/patients/clients in the clinical setting.

Methods of Instruction. Presentation and demonstrations of software and hardware will be given on-site or online. Discussions will be used to support critical thinking, exploration and reinforcing students foundation knowledge. Project-based assignments will implement software tools and use the Internet for research and exploration of open-source tools and database research. Students will apply using productivity software to illustrate proper use of file management, locally and in the cloud, use appropriate software for generating documents, spreadsheets, presentations and other file types to illustrate a broad understanding of using these tools.
Methods of Instruction. The teacher will work with the multiple learning styles of their students by using interactive and multi-media content. Blackboard School Central™ will be used, which is a fully-hosted and secure learning platform. If appropriate, the student will initially receive a nationally normed placement test called the BASI, Basic Achievement Skills Inventory. This 2.5 hour computer provided test, along with measuring annual progress, will assist the teacher to determine educational placement. The teacher, with the full support of the curriculum and the curriculum coordinator, will create assignments, projects and assessments that are aligned with Idaho standards and congruent with the student’s way of learning. If the student qualifies for special education services, the special education teacher will also be a part of this process. The teacher will utilize synchronous and asynchronous tools specifically through Xxxxx’s Collaboration Suite Express which provides instant messaging, virtual classrooms, blogs and discussion boards. Teachers will be able to provide lessons that are digitally recorded, with both audio and synchronized visuals. Teachers will use observational data, such as traditional grading mechanisms and tracking data via e-mail and log in’s. They will also have access to Blackboard Grade Center™ which assists teachers to create assignments and assessments with the capacity for instant feedback. Assignments have the potential to be automatically graded and recorded in the integrated Grade Center. Parents can greatly benefit by being provided with a parent login that will provide access, in real-time, to their student’s grades, assignments, tasks, and upcoming tests, making them a vital part of their student’s education. Teachers will receive in-service training on the curriculum prior to school beginning. Additionally, they will continually develop their skills in both teaching and on-line teaching through a variety of in-service opportunities. ACVS has a relationship with two community partners Northwest Nazarene University, NNU and Boise State University, BSU. Both universities are interested and able to provide all our teachers with a variety of course work that will develop their capacity to provide on-line instruction. Additionally, teachers will be engaged in the act of direct and indirect teaching throughout the day using a variety of proven teaching techniques including: tactile, visual, kinesthetic, auditory, group, and independent approache...
Methods of Instruction. Heritage Academy will use a variety of methods to help our students become confident, competent, productive and responsible citizens. The Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM) will assist us in designing a program to help our students reach their potential. Through his studies of the challenging, creative lessons developed for gifted students, Xx. Xxxxxxxx became convinced that this type of learning could benefit all students. Over 20 years of research led to the development of this model to improve instruction for an entire school. SEM applies the “a-rising-tide-lifts-all- ships” theory by integrating high-end learning into the total school program. SEM consists of three interacting dimensions. The first component, The Total Talent Portfolio (TTP) involves systematically gathering information about student’s abilities, interests, and learning styles and then utilizing this information to help students set personal goals and design enrichment activities. The second component involves Curriculum Modification Techniques. A student’s mastery of specific curriculum is assessed, and when mastery is achieved students are provided with alternate activities such as group or individual projects, peer teaching, or more in-depth study of curriculum material. Curriculum Modification may also include ability grouping, so that students’ learning is based on capability. As students are assessed to determine understanding and ability, teachers will have the information they need to teach more effectively. Students who have not mastered material will also be identified so that their needs can be addressed. Teachers will be able to re-teach the material in a different way, provide extra support or practice, utilize a peer teacher or adult mentor, and/or work with these students more closely. This will help teachers identify and resolve potential problems quickly. The final component involves Enrichment Learning and Teaching. This program consists of forming Enrichment Clusters. The goal is to apply knowledge and skills to produce a product or deliver a service for a community audience. Enrichment Clusters are facilitated by teachers, parents or community resource persons who share the same interests of the students and have some degree of expertise in the subject they are facilitating. Enrichment Cluster sessions will take place at least one time during each school year. Enrichment Cluster sessions will be approximately six to twelve weeks in length. The Enrichment Clusters off...
