Development through Different Forms of Pedagogy

development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...

Partners In Pedagogy: Faculty Development Through the Scholarship of Teaching

A New Interactive Whiteboard Pedagogy through Transformative Personal Development

The chapter aims to identify and describe the professional development critical success factors that underpin the successful implementation of digital interactive whiteboard technologies. It draws heavily on in-depth, government-commissioned evaluations of IWB implementation in England (Somekh et al., 2007) and Scotland (Pearson et al., 2004) in which findings derived from the analysis of digit...

Teachers implementing pedagogy through REDEEM

Previous research has shown that teachers, working in computer supported classrooms, are often unhappy with what they perceive is the diminution of their role as educators. One solution to the problem of loss of control over the teaching and learning process is to provide teachers with tools to develop their own computer-based learning environments. The investigation presented here is a case-ba...

The Development of Expertise in Pedagogy

In this discussion on the development of expertise in teaching, a theory of skill learning is first presented. The characteristics of five stages of skill development in teachers are described: (1) novice; (2) advanced beginner; (3) competent teacher; (4) proficient teacher; and (5) expert teacher. A review of data collected by studies on the subject of teaching expertise points out differences...
