Teaching of diverse learners

Teaching of diverse learners

Search for relevant literature on exemplary teaching in early childhood. You will need at least 7 literature sources all published within 5 years
Select three practices that demonstrate exemplary teaching.
Search for relevant literature around teacher professional identity related to these exemplary teaching qualities.
Critically review the literature – what does the literature say about the exemplary teaching aspects and how does it / doesn’t it relate to diverse learners? What is the context of the research? What are the strengths of the literature? Were there any limitations e.g. the population researched, the sample size, the context, the age group of participants, the background of participants. Were children included in the research or only adults?
Identify and summarise the key arguments across the literature that you have reviewed. What are the main findings that you have discovered from the literature reviewed? This will require you to compare and contrast the literature to identify the similarities and the differences in what the literature is discussing. How do the literature sources relate to one another? Be sure to review a wide range of literature sources (a minimum of 7) to write an integrated / synthesised discussion of your findings, and NOT a review of each literature source independently.
Critically think about the implications of what you have discovered – your key findings. What do the findings mean for the development of your own professional identity and practice working with diverse learners? Give examples of how you will implement the findings in your future professional practice.
Discuss the implications of utilising research skills and contemporary literature to support the development of your professional identity and practice in your education context.
