Appendix A: Preparing for licensure
➢ Identify a topic or goal that appears to be a priority only for Mr Cullen (i.e. that does not
appear on either student’s concept web). Devise a strategy or activity appropriate for
teaching about this topic or goal, taking into account the possibility that the students have
less prior knowledge or motivation about this topic than about the one identified in
Question #1.
➢ Identify a topic or goal that appears to be a priority only for one of the students (i.e. that
appears only on that student’s concept web). Devise a strategy or activity appropriate for
supporting the student in pursuing this topic, and for connecting it to at least one other
topic in Mr Cullen’s concept web.
➢ Choose any two of the questions cited in Mr Cullen’s field trip notes. Discuss how these
questions might be addressed in the context of one of the other activities described in
Questions #1-#3 “Deciding for yourself about research”.
