Teachers of creative courses such as tech ed, art, family consumer sciences, and music have the challenge of designing classroom spaces and managing equipment that extend beyond the normal realm of books and Chromebooks.

Teachers of creative courses such as tech ed, art, family consumer sciences, and music have the challenge of designing classroom spaces and managing equipment that extend beyond the normal realm of books and Chromebooks. To add to that challenge is the large influx of developmentally varying bodies that move in and out of these very active classes.
This micro-credential allows the teacher to study in a hands-on approach to design a kinesthetic cooperative work environment for the learners while creating a visual example of the physical layout of their culturally responsive classroom. Teachers will look at the demographics of the type of learners they work with and how collaboration and culture play a role in the layout and management of the classroom.
The artifacts that are created and submitted will be assessed by educators outside of the state of Montana but the deep dive into your learners in your school building and the physical layout of the classroom for your subject area will prove to help the collaboration and management for the fall of 2022.
*Note: This micro-credential requires video or photo evidence of your classroom without students, this is intended for a teacher who has an abnormal classroom set-up due to equipment used in the curriculum.
