//Standard 5 // = Teachers know how to manage a classroom. = The teacher uses an understanding of individual and group motivation and behavior to create a learning environment that encourages positive social interaction, active engagement in learning, and self-motivation.

Evidence 1: //Education in 20 Years Paper (652) //

Rationale 1: //As the world continually changes at an extremely fast pace, teachers must have a vision for what education and their classrooms will look like while adjusting to the changes in student' experiences, technology, and the need for 21st century skills. These constant changes and new technological additions require a new kind of classroom management. This paper, which discusses my vision for what education and classroom management should look like 20 years from now, forced me to critically think about what skills are timeless and necessary, what skills need to be adapted, what skills will be obsolete, and how the classroom should managed to motivate and engage students. We will have some very powerful educational tools in 20 years, and if I can use them to engage and encourage student learning, my students will be more successful because of it.//

KSD: 5.K.5 The teacher recognizes factors and situations that are likely to promote or diminish intrinsic motivation, and knows how to help students become self-motivated. //Using technology as it becomes available in the schools, as discussed in my paper, is one factor that will promote intrinsic motivation. Technology is something children love to explore and use, so information presented through that medium should inspire self-motivation to learn and practice the materia//l.

5.S.6 The teacher analyzes the classroom environment and makes decisions and adjustments toenhance social relationships, student motivation and engagement, and productive work. //The classroom environment will change drastically over the next 20 years as new resources become available and more emphasis is placed on 21st century skills. This paper highlights ways in which I analyze the new classroom environment to meet these 21st century goals and engage students in productive work.//

5.D.4 The teacher recognizes the value of intrinsic motivation to students’ life-long growth and learning. //The paper discusses a change in teaching what will lead to a change in learning. One major change in learning that will take place is getting students motivated not only in the classroom, but also getting them motivated to become life-long learners as well.//
