2. INTASC Standards, Description and Rationale
Communication Skills: The teacher uses knowledge of effective verbal, nonverbal, media communication techniques to foster active inquiry, collaboration, and supportive interaction in the classroom.
For this assignment I created a PowerPoint to highlight the important information about the current issue of dating violence. Also, at the end of the presentation, I created two questions to further the discussion from my classmates.
To document my understanding of standard six (communication skills) I selected to include my contemporary issues PowerPoint. This assignment documents my knowledge of both verbal and media communication techniques in order to teach a group of students a topic that eventually ends with a question and answer session to further their understanding.
