  1. Yeah. Hello, everybody again.
  2. Um It is that time, it is the final week
  3. module five.
  4. Um so this is Sarah Billiard, again from Group one.
  5. Um We're going to focus on chapter 23 titled socio
  6. culture, sociocultural perspectives on literacy and learning.
  7. That's a mouthful.
  8. Um Okay, so after going through this chapter, there are
  9. again Two core concepts that I'm going to discuss.
  10. So the first core concept I want to highlight is
  11. a quote from page 313 from chapter 23, which is
  12. uses of language and ways of communicating are socially and
  13. culturally produced.
  14. So I think this quote is particularly important to me
  15. as a teacher because I have to be able to
  16. promote and deliver effective communication for each individual student in
  17. my classroom, regardless of background culture, traditions and um things
  18. like that.
  19. So, educational professionals in general should be aware of this
  20. concept because they too should put their students first and
  21. communicate in ways that are clear and as understandable as
  22. possible. So the this key concept also relates to one
  23. of the dispositions of the course that state students will
  24. be able to appreciate the value, worth and dignity of
  25. each learn in educational settings, especially with regard to unique
  26. developmental differences.
  27. Each student has, like I said, their own unique cultural
  28. backgrounds, level of social cognition and level of literacy.
  29. So now we're going to jump to the second core
  30. concept, which is, some scholars have defined new literacy ease
  31. as the rapid and continuous changes in the ways in
  32. which we read, write, view, listen, composed and communicate information.
  33. So actually the other day I saw this photo as
  34. I was squirreling through instagram that showed a billboard from
  35. 2001 and built a Billboard from 2021.
  36. The one from 2001 was an iPod Advertising a whopping
  37. 1000 songs that you could save on the device.
  38. Um the one from 2021 advertised 60 million songs, which
  39. is quite the leap in just 20 years.
  40. I thought that was pretty crazy and that's just how
  41. literacy research is progressing, as well as how language and
  42. the way teenagers and young students communicate with each other.
  43. Um the notions of literacy is expanding and it really
  44. is becoming a loose term.
  45. This is especially important for educators because teachers have to
  46. communicate and help their students learn to their fullest potential.
  47. So now one of the courses physicians says that students
  48. will be able to appreciate the complexity of human learning
  49. and development, especially with respect to the teacher's role in
  50. a relationship to learners.
  51. And this relates to the second core concept, because literacy
  52. is changing the way we communicate and interact is changing
  53. and thus teachers have to constantly be in this posture
  54. of being their best for the sake of their students.
  55. So now let's move on to the connection of these
  56. concepts to the course themes.
  57. So the first concept connects with the course theme.
  58. This course focuses on building a foundation of knowledge and
  59. experience about changes humans undergo socially and culturally that influence
  60. human learning and develop this chapter, I think really accurately
  61. describes how learning and communication is impacted by social and
  62. cultural influences.
  63. So the second theme that I wanted to highlight is
  64. this course will provide a foundation and learning and development
  65. theory that will support your developing competence as an education
  66. professional, especially related to effective communication.
  67. The second concept really relates to this because in order
  68. for teachers to give their students the best academic experience
  69. possible, they have to be aware of these new literacy
  70. ease and be able to connect and communicate with their
  71. students effectively.
  72. Alright so finally the last piece that I'm going to
  73. talk about um Is we're going to look at the
  74. common readings in chapter 23 as well as applications to
  75. my future work environment.
  76. So first we can jump to the common readings.
  77. Chapter 29 um which is one of the common ratings
  78. for this week, discussed that sensitive assessments are tough to
  79. gauge the social, psychological and sociocultural impacts on each individual
  80. student. This this is why teachers need to establish good
  81. connections and effective communication so that they can be a
  82. resource and aid in their academic success.
  83. Alright finally let's talk about my future work environment and
  84. I wanted to focus specifically on E.
  85. S. L.
  86. Um and L.
  87. L. Students for this part.
  88. Um I have never personally experienced classmates who speak another
  89. language. However, I have been a student too, speaks another
  90. language. I was a spanish learner in Costa Rica and
  91. I can definitely relate to how stressful it is to
  92. hardly know the language that you are completely and entirely
  93. immersed in.
  94. So in my future workplace, having that experience, I want
  95. to promote effective communication and language learning for students from
  96. diverse sociocultural backgrounds, especially for the S.
  97. L. And E.
  98. L. L.
  99. Students. So that is all.
  100. From my end, it was a pleasure these common.
  101. The group oral presentations were actually kind of fun.
  102. It was kind of my favorite part of this class,
  103. so I'm happy that we got to do it and
  104. that is all.
  105. Thank you.
