https://elearninginfographics.com/6-education-theorists-teachers-know-infographic/

It is important that students have a theoretic foundation when creating their own teaching methodology. In class were covered the major theoretic paradigms used in education now-a days.

Hierarchy of Needs - Maslow
Multiple Intelligences - Gardner
Theory of Cognitive Development - Piaget
Zone of Proximal Development _ Vygotsky
Progressive Education (Learning By Doing) - Dewey
Montessori Theory of Teaching (Child chooses what to learn) - Montessori
Theory of Psychological Development - Erickson

Dance And Science: Integrating Math and Biology through Dance Activities

New Research About the Power of Dance to Teach Dance Ruqaya and Ellen taught lessons that proved it is possible to use dance as a way to illustrate science concepts. Ruqaya began with Math signs written on big pieces of paper. Every sign had an equivalent in movement. Once the students were familiar with the representation of the signs in movement, she gave them a new activity. This time they had to solve a mathematical operation and represent it through the body with movement. The result was very effective and demonstrative in terms of how dance can help teachers to make Math fun and easier to understand. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hemoglobin is a transport protein for oxygen found in red blood cells Ellen was equally persuasive about the approach she used to teach about the circulatory system and how important it is for the respiratory system. She took the first part of the class to explain the way O2, carried by the hemogl...
