My Homework Page

This is where I am putting up most of my assignments for the single subject teaching credential program I am attending at CSUS.  This is mostly here for the benefit of my fellow students should they need it, and to make it easier to discuss material with teachers, friends, family or whoever.  If there are any assignments in here of general interest I linked to them in my musings section.

Anyway, I have space on my web server, so why the hell not?

Assignments

As I start completing assignments, I post them here with a brief description.

Semester 3

EDTE 386 Secondary School Mathematics

Logs on each reading for the class.  May be of interest to math teachers.

Semester 2

EDTE 371C Schools and Community II

Stuff having to do with classroom management and stuff.

EDTE 384 Academic Literacy for Secondary Teachers

My expository reading and writing assignment:

Some logs I have to do on some academic literacy readings.  Very dull.

Semester 1

EDTE 116 - Psychology of Instruction

These are just some odds and ends for class - not much worth seeing really.

EDBM 170 - Introduction to The Education of English Learners

These logs are from the tutoring sessions that I had with a couple of English as a Second Language (ESL) students at one of our local elementary schools.  The logs stand by themselves pretty well, so if you know me and you're wondering what it's like for a 42 year old engineer to try to connect with elementary school kids for the first time ever, you might enjoy reading them.

The prepsheets below are reactions to our assigned readings.  They're supposed to be short but I often go overboard.  My professor told his wife that one of his students writes an extended critique of every reading (yep, that's me).  They aren't very entertaining if you haven't read the material, so everyone but my classmates will want to skip them.

Odds and ends.

EDTE 371A - Schools and Community I

These are reasonably stand alone but maybe a touch clinical.  Have a look if you are really curious about Elk Grove area high schools.  Each observation focuses on a particular aspect of class as well as taking place at a different classroom.

EDTE 372 - Anthropology and Education

The focus of this class was ethnographic studies of the Elk Grove school district.

HLSC 136 - School Health Education

I had to crank out a ton of stuff for this class.  I put a lot of work into the first two, the rest are pretty short.

Useful links

Here are some links that are useful to me at school.  A lot of them aren't really accessible if you are not a CSUS student, but I put them here anyway for the convenience of myself and my fellow students.
