· Study Plan
A MyEducationKit Study Plan is a multiple-choice assessment with feedback tied to chapter objectives.
A well-designed Study Plan offers multiple opportunities to fully master required course content as identifi ed by the objectives in each chapter:
o Chapter Objectives identify the learning outcomes for the chapter and give students targets to shoot for as they read and study.
o Multiple-Choice Assessments assess mastery of the content. These assessments are mapped to chapter objectives, and students can take the multiple choice quiz as many times as they want. Not only do these quizzes provide overall scores for each objective, but they also explain why responses to particular items are correct or incorrect.
o Study Material: Review and Enrichment gives students a deeper understanding of what they do and do not know related to chapter content with text excerpts connected to chapter objectives.
Assignments and Activities
Designed to save instructors preparation time and enhance student understanding, these assignable exercises show concepts in action (through video, cases, and/or student and teacher artifacts).
They help students synthesize and apply concepts and strategies they read about in the book.
o Videos. The authentic classroom videos in MyEducationKit show how real teachers handle actual classroom situations. Discussing and analyzing these videos not only deepens understanding of concepts presented in the text, but also builds skill in observing children and classrooms.
o Web Links. On MyEducationKit you don’t need to search for the sites that connect to the topics covered in your chapter. Here, you can explore web sites that are important in the fi eld and that give you perspective on the concepts covered in your text.
