Fieldwork Observation Project: Implementation of Guided Notes
Fieldwork Observation Project
FOR EACH SETTING OBSERVED: 10 hours in a classroom graded B-2 and 10 hours in a classroom graded 3-6.
please write a fieldwork summary about Head Start of Nyack Ms. Elsie toddler age 2 years ( she has 8 kids in the class and she has 1 assistant), and the other school is Greenburgh Graham school 4th grade Ms. Cicalo's class ( it's inclusion class) 1 teacher and 2 assistants ( 10 kids in class ).
Please see attached fieldwork examples, you actually did one for me previously too.
I also attached the key assessment of the fieldwork
Fieldwork Paper (3-4 pages) summarizing the visits in a narrative form responding to the following five questions:
FOR EACH SETTING OBSERVED:
1. Describe the classroom you are observing: [i.e., grade level(one setting must be grades B-2 and the second setting must be grades 3-6) , types of disabilities, subject area, co-taught general education class or self-contained special education class, number of students in class, activities you observed]
2. Describe the lesson being presented (i.e. a) subject matter, b)objectives, c) measurement of student responses, d) technology used
3. Describe methods utilized during the lesson (e.g., scaffolding, task analysis) and materials you observed during the lesson.
4. What types of instructional or test accommodations were used?
5. Were the teacher’s behavioral expectations clear? (e.g., rules posted, directions and instructions clearly stated. Describe the behavior management system used. How effective do you think it was?

Provide a one-paragraph abstract
In their study, Haydon et al. (2011) explored the research surrounding the efficacy of guided notes as an instructional approach. By conducting a thorough review, the researchers identified 13 studies that met the criteria for inclusion in the analysis. The collective findings of these studies indicate that implementing guided notes in educational settings has a notably positive impact on student outcomes. Specifically, the use of guided notes has demonstrated significant improvements in both the accuracy of note-taking and overall student test scores. Such positive outcomes suggest that guided notes could be a valuable pedagogical tool in enhancing student learning experiences. The authors of this study extensively discuss the implications of these encouraging results for classroom practices, highlighting the potential benefits for teachers in facilitating more effective note-taking and fostering a deeper understanding of the subject matter among students. Additionally, the study underscores the need for further research in this area to delve deeper into the underlying mechanisms behind the e...
