3.2d What Lessons Should You Choose?

Planning and Teaching

Component 3 is about you showing the various instructional strategies you employ within the breadth of your practice. One challenge is the time limit of each video and that edits are very restricted. (See General Portfolio Instructions pages 32-39. Editing restrictions is on page 39)

Video Editing and Audio Enhancement Rules for Component 3

Each video recording must be made during a single class period. Submitting each video recording in a continuous and unedited format may provide the most authentic representation of your teaching practice. However, each video recording may include up to two edits for the reasons listed below. The only allowable edits to the video are for the following reasons:

-moving a whole class into a different physical instructional setting such as a lab, a gymnasium, or outdoors

- responding to safety drills
-changing the battery in the video camera

All certificates require you to demonstrate your accomplished teaching in these three areas:

Learning Environment
Student Engagement
Instruction

Read over your component instructions especially What Do I Need to Do and Planning and Selecting Instructional Materials.

You have Standards that explain what this looks like for your certificate. After reading your Standards, completing your Standard Organizer, consider completing this Planning Template Download Planning Template

to help you further decide what you want to capture of your instruction on video.

Consider watching this screen recording of completing the document to help you better understand what to do. (Note: this video was created a few years ago so the location of the materials is different and the info is on page 9 of your C3 portfolio instructions.)
