The teacher demonstrates a current and sufficient academic knowledge of certified content areas to develop student knowledge and performance in those areas.
Exhibit #1: Behavioral Statistics Exam
Exhibit #1
Rational
The exhibit above is an exam I took in my Behavioral Statistics class. This exhibit represents my strength in the mathematics field. The chapters that correspond with the material on the test have taught me how to effectively conduct a research experiment dealing with independent, dependent variables, and control variables, the mean, median, and mode, and how to use graphs, frequency tables, and stem and leaf plots to represent data. I learned that my depth of knowledge in this area of mathematics is great. I understand that I did prepare for the test using a study guide, but I had to answer the questions on the guide with notes and previous information that I had aquired. I also know that I can improve my continuing to study and practice on my mathematics skills. And I need to realize when I have students in a mathematics class they will need to practice concepts before they will entirely understand the information.
