What is CARE?
• Six Standards with related Indicators in the areas of:– Knowledge,– Dispositions, and– Performance.
![Page 3: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
5 of 6 Standards = 57 Matrices
• The “Matrices” provide charts in which the student indexes assignments and projects.
• These assignments and projects are matched with (aligned with) a matrix for each of the Performance Indicators for the first five Standards. Standard VI relates to the internship and is documented in the Teacher Candidate Work Sample (TCWS).
• Fifty-seven were chosen for the CARE matrix.

Reflection
• In addition, the student writes a reflection for each Performance Indicator.
• The student states why s/he selected that assignment or project and explains how it relates to that Performance Indicator.
![Page 5: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
When does the CARE process begin and end?
• It begins when you are accepted into the Music Education program.
• It continues throughout the courses you take for your professional training. (You should continually be adding artifacts - assignments and projects with your reflections - to the matrix.)
• EDN 302 addresses, particularly, Standards II, IV, and V.
• It ends with your internship.
![Page 6: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What can you do to help yourself do all of this?
• Especially, work on your own on Standards IV (Instructional Technology) and V (Professionalism).
• Add artifacts (assignments, projects) and reflections throughout your course of study as an education major.
![Page 7: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What can you do to help yourself do all of this? (continued)
• Use a 3-step system:1. Identify artifacts.2. Make connections between the artifacts and
Performance Indicators.3. Write reflections that show how you are
connecting the above two steps to your own professional development.
![Page 8: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What about the Knowledge and Dispositions categories listed in
the Standards?
• The Knowledge listings reflect the course content of the education-methods classes.
• The Dispositions listings describe how a successful teacher candidate thinks and feels and what s/he believes. (The Dispositions are used as the basis for the Teacher Candidate Interview.)
![Page 9: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Your Philosophy of Education = Your Conceptual Framework
During EDN 302, you will create your written philosophy statement. This Conceptual Framework for Teaching and Learning
• Builds on your own experiences as a learner,• Draws upon all knowledge you have regarding
teaching and learning, and• Reflects what you believe about education.Note: The reflections you write for the CARE matrix will help you
reflect and revise your philosophy.
![Page 10: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What do you need to do to create a Conceptual Framework?
• Get an attitude adjustment, if necessary:– “Own what you learn or have learned.”
– Look at what you are studying from the standpoint of responsible application in a professional setting.
• Write down your thoughts and ideas:– Engage in critical reflection.
– Keep a reliable record of what you write (i.e., save in more than one way - hard copy, disk, UNCP server).
![Page 11: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What do you need to do to create a Conceptual Framework? (continued)
• Continue to integrate new knowledge, skills, and dispositions as you go through the Teacher Education program.
• Consciously make connections between what you know and what you believe, as well as between what you believe and what you will do as a teacher.
![Page 12: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What do you need to do to create a Conceptual Framework? (continued)
• Answer the three fundamental questions:
1. What does a teacher do when planning instruction?
2. What does a teacher do when implementing instruction?
3. What does a teacher do when reflecting on instruction?
![Page 13: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How do you create a Mission statement?
First, answer three fundamental questions:
1. Why do American pay taxes to support free public schools for all children and youth?
2. What are the purposes of public schooling?
3. What are a teacher’s roles and responsibilities?
![Page 14: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do you create a Mission statement? (continued)
Second, draw upon the answers to those 3 questions to address the following:
• What is your mission as a music teacher?– What do you hope to accomplish or achieve?– What impact do you want to have on
children/youth?
Third, prepare your final draft.
![Page 15: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
How do you create a Personal Profile?
• As if you were in a job interview, answer the question:– Tell us about yourself. (Remember, this is a
professional - not personal - position paper.)
• Include a photograph.
![Page 16: CARE and More](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082517/56812a7e550346895d8e0b69/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What are some of the purposes of this massive project?
• To practice the behaviors and demonstrate the skills of successful educators (especially critical self-reflection).
• To connect the seemingly-separate methods classes (the “curriculum threads”) in logical and meaningful ways.
• To document your work (and ours) for UNCP and our accrediting agencies.
• To provide documentation for future employers.• Ultimately, to provide the basis for constructing
your OWN knowledge (as all learners do).
