CATE 4013: Teaching Strategies

University of Arkansas
I. Unit Context

Fayetteville is a city located in Northwest Arkansas and is part of Washington County.


As of the 2018 census, Fayetteville has a population of 86,751 people. The student population at
the Fayetteville Public Schools represents over 10,017 of 86,751 total population. Population
rose % from 2017 to 2018. As of the 2018 census, 67.9% of the population is white, 12.2% is
Hispanic or Latino, 9.3% is black or African American, and 3.6% is Asian. The median
household income between 2017and 2018 was $37,350. The percent of people living below
poverty level between 2017and 2018 was 38% of Fayetteville’s total population.

Fayetteville Public Schools budgeted $110,873,445 total expenditures for the 2017-2018
fiscal year. The Fayetteville Public Education Foundation raises private funds for resources,
programs, and other opportunities that students would not otherwise have available to them
through the district’s budget. The foundation offers grants to community members, businesses,
and organizations that propose a project to support resources, programs, or other opportunities in
support of Fayetteville Public Schools. The Arkansas Department of Education’s Arkansas
School Recognition gives WJHS a public-school rating “A”. To have an “A” school rating is
dependent on the state accountability.

Woodland Junior High School currently serves 746 students in the 7th and 8th grade. The
student-to-teacher ratio is 14:1students for every one teacher. The average class size is 19. 5% of
WJHS are English learners. 13% of students are eligible to receive special education. The 2017-
2018 school year student population was represented with 73.1% white students, 10.5% Hispanic
students, 5.8% Black/African American students, 3.2% Asian/Pacific Islander students, and 0.3%
American Indian/Alaskan students. Woodland Junior High School offers a breakfast/lunch
program that allows students to pay with no cost. 25.7% of students are eligible for free and
reduced meals. Students are offered a variety of courses to choose from in art, music,
engineering, journalism, technology, and business. Woodland Junior High School provides
academic and enrichment programs that include archery, chess club, anime club, robotics, and
quiz bowl.

1
I have selected second hour KeyCode class to plan a unit of instruction. This is a diverse
class of 7th grade students. The class has 14 students total, 4 females and 10 males. There are 12
white students and 2 Hispanic students in the class. The class has two students who receive
special education services in school.

II. Design for Instruction

2
My Design for Instruction is centered around KeyCode for grades levels 7-8 from the

Arkansas curriculum frameworks for BUED. For my planned instruction, I will cover Standards

1.0 and Standard 4.0. In Standard 1.0, performance indicator 1.1, recognizes and discusses the

academic and professional benefits of participating in a CTSO. In Standard 4.0, students will

create simple documents using proper formatting techniques. These standards follow the

Arkansas Department of Education Division of Career and Technical Education and aligns with

standards for Arkansas Computer Science Coding Block, Common Career Technical Core, and

National Standards for Business Education. This unit is focused on creating simple documents

using proper formatting techniques as well as incorporating the investigation of Career and

Technical Student Organizations. My learning goals are for students to be able to use simple

formatting techniques on different programs. I have planned for six days of lessons each

building up to our exam day.

Introduction to the Lesson/Hook:

Today we are going to focus on discovering the world of CTSO’s . Can anyone tell me

what CTSO means? (Wait 15 seconds) . I want you guys to take a look around the room

at the logos that are placed around the room. Go ahead take a piece of paper out and walk

around quietly to check out all the CTSO’s that are at our school and Fayetteville High

School. On your piece a paper I want you to write down which ones stuck out to you.

Learning activities/procedures:

● Gallery Walk

● Unit 4 Pre-Assessment

● CTSO investigation worksheet (work independently)

● Venn Diagram

● Think pair share: Find a person who has a different CTSO

Higher Order Thinking (HOT) Questions:

● Can anyone put into their own words what a CTSO is?

● Differentiate between DECA and FBLA?

● What can a CTSO do for you?

Summary of the Lesson:

In this lesson students will define, describe, discuss, interpret, organize, and design ways in

which CTSO is can be incorporated in and outside of the classroom. By doing this they will have

researched the different CTSO’s and created a Venn diagram with the class. They will have

investigated the similarities and differences. Closing the lesson I would like for them to Think-

Pair-Share.

5
In addition to have learned about CTSO’s they will have taken a Unit 4 Pre-Assessment which

will help them evaluate the skills they are struggling to learn and the content they will be

learning.

Summary/Closure/Review of Content:

Think-Pair Share with a person who has the opposite CTSO as you. Share something you found

interesting. Today we learned about different CTSO’s and their similarities and differences.

Why do you think having similarities are important? Why do you think the differences are

important?

In life you are going to find that the best way to connect to people is finding commonalities and

celebrating your differences. CTSOs allow you to build relationships with others and a

community.

Objectives: The learners will be able to…..

● Discuss Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSO) such as

FBLA and DECA

● Define a CTSO

o This is where you can find anything that is related to fonts i.e. font style,

font size, decrease font, increase font ……..

o Who has a favorite font style?

o Which one do we use a lot in school?

10
- Font style

o Type Pumpkin and change it to Goudy Stout

- Font size

o Type scarecrow size 32

§ Increase and decrease

- Decrease font

- Increase font

- Bold

o Type the word spooky and bold the “o” in spooky

III. Assessment Plan

Pre-Assessment:

In my pre-assessment I have attached the physical layout of what it looks like along with
the unit of instruction. It is aligned with the learning goals and objectives of Unit 1 and Unit 4.
The pre-assessment and post-assessment are identical to each other. The pre-assessment will set
the tone for my weekly lesson pinpointing the weak and strong points of their prior knowledge.

Formative Assessment

For each lesson during the week, I have provided different formative assessments to
evaluate their skills and techniques correlated to their objectives. In these assessments, they will
act as an indicator of how well the students will progress throughout the week while learning
new information. The majority of my assessments will be a mixture of independent instruction
and interactive instruction. In business education, it is important to create your own personal
work and collaborate with others.

In my pre-assessment I have attached the physical layout of what it looks like along with
the unit of instruction. It is aligned with the learning goals and objectives of Unit 1 and Unit 4.
The pre-assessment and post-assessment are identical to each other. The pre-assessment will set
the tone for my weekly lesson pinpointing the weak and strong points of their prior knowledge.

For my first lesson, the students will investigate different CTSO’s. Alongside this lesson
I will provide them a worksheet to follow along to search for important factors relating to their
organization. The main objective for this lesson is the define CTSO’s and analyze the differences
between FBLA and DECA. For their assessment I will have them use their research to create a
classroom Venn diagram of the similarities and differences of the two organizations. For my
closure, I will ask for a $2 summary correlating to which CTSO they think best fits their goals.
For my second lesson, my students’ objectives will be to demonstrate simple formatting
using Microsoft Word. An assessment I have planned will be to use a quizizz to test their prior
knowledge of using Microsoft word techniques. The quizizz is set up to be played as a an
individual but each point scored is counted as collective team based off of which team the
website put you in. This assessment gives me a detailed statistic on students who are answering
correctly and which students are struggling.

In my lesson on Wednesday, I plan on playing four corners to get my students walking


and engaged. My main objective for this assessment to see how they are doing in the middle of
week and how much knowledge they can recall from the past two lessons. I will ask them a
series of questions about CTSO’s and formatting techniques. Based off of their listening skills
and knowledge they will decide which corner suits the best answer for the question. This

23
assessment will show me who understand the content as well as I can see who are leaders and
followers of my class.

In my lesson on Thursday, we will create a flyer about DECA or FBLA to put our
knowledge to the test by performing the techniques learned in the past week. On the flyer, it will
require four facts about the CTSO’s researched and four simple formatting techniques used.
They will then print out the flyer and annotate their work describing what formatting technique
was used. This assessment shows that the student understands what they are creating and can
produce a finished product indicating their techniques.

Post-Assessment:

In my lesson plan for Friday, students will take a post assessment that will show
academic progress from the beginning to the end of the week. The pre-assessment and post
assessment are identical to one another. By the post assessment, my goal is for students to score
higher than their pre-assessment. The format of the post-assessment will look like a traditional
test with multiple choice, matching, short answer, and an essay question. The post-assessment is
slightly different because since the first lesson they have researched and analyzed CTSO’s hence
the addition of the essay portion that is not on the pre-assessment. I want the last portion of the
assessment to let me as a teacher to read my students interpretations of their investigated
organizations. Learning and understanding the importance of competitive events and what
CTSO’s have to offer are part of Unit 1 in KeyCode the framework.
