Dr. Solomon will explain the steps of the Group Investigation Culminating Activity for the course as described on the next page.
In essence, the class will be divided into small cooperative inquiry groups. The size of each inquiry group will be determined by the number of students in the class. Each group will be assigned one of these major topic area of the course:
Inquiry group #1 Topic: Mentoring and Supervisionincluding these sub-topics: difference between mentoring and supervision; the interpersonal, reflection and observational skills of mentoring and supervision, internal and external reflection and reflection tools, clinical supervision, Glickman’s four approaching to mentoring and supervision, Hunter’s five approaches to the post-observation conference, cognitive coaching
Inquiry group #2 Topic: Teaching and Learningincluding these sub-topics: models of teaching, three teacher-directed and three student engaged models of teaching, the difference between teacher-directed and student-engaged models of teaching, authentic learning, differentiated instruction (i.e. learning styles and multiple intelligences), individualized instruction; intrapersonal, interpersonal and group and community dimensions to understanding, preventing and terminating student disruptive behavior, the difference between a traditional classroom and a Jewish community of cooperative learners.

The length of each inquiry groups presentation will be determined by Dr. Solomon.
The Steps of the Group Investigation Culminating Activity
Each inquiry group does the following: 1. Investigates its topic 2. Sub-divides its topic into sub-topics or clusters of sub-topics. 3. Determines which members of the group are responsible for learning and teaching its topic or sub-topic/s to the members of the class. 4. Follows the six standards of the rubric for the inquiry group presentation that are described on the next two pages. 5. Creates a plan on how to present its topic to the class. This plan includes creating and emailing the inquiry project to the members of the class prior to the presentation. The presentation will occur during the last class session as a culminating activity. Information on the inquiry group project is described below. 6. Rehearses it presentation prior to the online presentation to the class.
What Might the Inquiry Group Presentation Project for the Group Investigation Look Like?
It can be: a/an:
· power point · video · podcast · role-play · skit · game or quiz show · crossword or other puzzle · handouts for a workshop · story telling · interview · fairy tale · art, music or kinesthetic activity
