The Classroom, Inc. scenarios emphasize three types of learning experiences which correlate well with our team teaching, integrated learning, and thematic curriculum approach to educating deaf and hard of hearing students. Collaborative Learning Three students in a mixed ability group work as a team around each computer.
Teams discuss practical business and ethical situations requiring negotiation and decision making.
Students alternate responsibilities on the team. Exploratory Learning Teachers take the role of facilitators and mentors. They do not provide all the answers. Teachers begin and end the sessions with a group discussion. Teams read, use references, and follow directions in order to determine their own course of action.
