Indirect Instruction - ✔ student-centered and interactive; teachers facilitate small-group & cooperative learning Indirect instruction aids with teaching... - ✔ abstraction, concepts, patterns, inquiry, problem-solving and discovery learning Direct Instruction - ✔ teacher-centered; teachers give explicit, structured instruction using lesson plans Direct instruction aids with teaching... - ✔ facts, rules, & sequences; breaking down textbook or workbook material; lower Bloom's Taxonomy; & gaining student interest What essential cognitive process do many students fail to do before beginning activities, and why is this step important? - ✔ Planning; Planning is important because students use working memory to rehearse information in short-term memory and prompt the move into long-term memory for retention Deductive Learning - ✔ 1. Overall concept or rule presented.
Divergent Thinking - ✔ generating concepts, ideas, facts, & information that differ (or diverge) to yield varying answers Creative Thinking - ✔ generating original ideas, coming up with problem-solving alternatives that differ from usual solutions; DIVERGENT thinking Critical Thinking - ✔ ability to question, evaluate & judge information or material (i.e. distinguish fact from fiction, look for evidence, judge quality of information, etc.) Problem solving involves what 4 steps? - ✔ 1. Identifying a problem.
What are some critical components of effective experiential learning? - ✔ formulating plans to apply learning to other contexts & reflecting personally about learning experiences When is student comprehension and retention higher: through experiential learning, passive activities or receptive activities? - ✔ experiential learning What are some examples of experiential learning? - ✔ administering surveys, building models, taking field trips, making field observations, conducting simulations, playing games, role-playing, focused imaging, & conducting experiments The scientific method is an example of which type of learning? - ✔ experiential learning Interactive Instruction - ✔ teaching strategy that enables a range of different interactive methods & ways of grouping students; places a major emphasis on having students exchange ideas & work together What are some examples of interactive instruction? - ✔ 1. debates
Introduce key terms & concepts before proceeding.
Focus attention on important information using questions.
Give frequent feedback, including clarifying or correcting incorrect responses. What should a teacher do when conducting a task analysis of a new skill to be taught? - ✔ 1. Identify the specific skill.
Identify the prerequisite knowledge & skills necessary to learn the new skill.
Determine student readiness with prerequisites. Why should teachers design lessons that specifically teach thinking & learning strategies? - ✔ help students develop critical & creative thinking & learning skills What strategies can teachers use to encourage reflection & making sense of new information? - ✔ have students write or discuss in their own words how to integrate new information with their existing ideas, approaches & opinions How can teachers help develop self-confidence in students? - ✔ Teachers should model self-confidence in thinking & reasoning processes. How can teachers incorporate individualized options in lesson plans? - ✔ assignment choices, modalities for multiple intelligences, varying instruction & application sequences What are the benefits of warm-up activities? - ✔ ensure class begins as the students enter the room & makes the most of instructional time; minimize student disruption problems because these activities increase structured instructional time What is the maximum length of time teachers should devote to lectures? - ✔ 15 - 20 minutes Demonstrations - ✔ teachers show students a technique, process or procedure What are the advantages of a teacher demonstration? - ✔ increase the likelihood that students will be able to perform the function with minimal assistance What are the advantages of using a worksheet? - ✔ easy to use & typically come with publishing materials as a supporting piece of instruction; flexible (can be used individually or in groups); easy to score; students are generally engaged when completing worksheets Gallery Walk - ✔ students move around the room in an organized fashion to observe, analyze & evaluate instructional items that have been placed around the room Graphic Organizers - ✔ organizational tool
Venn Diagrams - ✔ overlapping circles that represent a relationship between two or more items, with one circle representing each item; overlapping circles represent similarities, while areas that do not overlap represent differences Quadrants - ✔ four boxes with a space in the middle for a new term; boxes represent: text definition, student definition (in own words), illustration, & how to use the term Which graphic organizer is useful when defining new concepts or vocabulary terms? - ✔ Quadrants Frayer Models - ✔ four boxes with space in the middle; boxes represent: essential characteristics, non-characteristics, examples & non-examples Concept Mapping - ✔ graphical representations that provide insight into relationships among different concepts Concept Attainment - ✔ students use critical thinking to determine examples & non- examples as they relate to a certain group or category KWL - ✔ K: Know (what students know) W: Want (what they want to know) L: Learned (what was learned as a result of the lesson) Recall Questions - ✔ factual questions with one correct answer; requires knowledge & comprehension Open-Ended Questions - ✔ have multiple answers which allows for more student responses & expand student participation; generally used as a starting point for group discussion Probing Questions - ✔ promotes thoughtful inquiry; based on student responses & requires students to go beyond first answers Guiding Questions - ✔ guide student thinking by channeling the students' though patterns to a desired curricular outcome & cues students' responses; helps maintain momentum of lesson Examples of Recall or Factual Questions - ✔ Who, what, when...? Examples of Classifying Questions - ✔ What characteristics do these items have in common? How might these items be organized into categories? Examples of Evaluation Questions - ✔ How will you know if the answer is correct? What criteria should we use to evaluate the effectiveness of this treatment?
Reciprocal Teaching: Predicting - ✔ students synthesize events in the passage & predict the outcome or what might happen in a similar situation in the future SQ3R - ✔ reading technique; survey, question, read, recite, review SQ4R - ✔ reading technique; survey, question, read, relate, recite, review Flexible Grouping - ✔ method for instruction differentiation based on achievement levels of students (i.e. remedial group & enrichment group, but both are responsible for same curricular topics) Nominal Brainstorming - ✔ all students must respond during the brainstorming session before providing a second response Think-Pair-Share - ✔ Think (students compose an individual response to a question); Pair (students are assigned to another student to share, discuss & combine answers); Share (present response to entire class) Cooperative Learning - ✔ students work together to complete an assignment or project Guided Discussions - ✔ type of group discussion; teachers facilitate by asking thoughtful questions that lead students to a defined curricular point; requires students to interpret, describe, generalize, synthesize &/or summarize their prior knowledge Reflective Discussions - ✔ type of group discussion; asks students to think creatively & critically; teachers ask an introductory question on a contemporary &/or controversial topic; requires students to formulate their opinions on the topic & support them with facts from prior knowledge Learning Centers - ✔ students rotate through centers to get a variety of ways to interact with curriculum Jigsaw - ✔ class is broken into small groups, with each group focusing on a specific topic to become experts; groups are then redistributed with each group containing an expert from a different group to share knowledge with everyone RAFT - ✔ teachers select an overall topic, & then works with students to define Role, Audience, & Format, so students can demonstrate understanding of a topic Portfolio - ✔ collection of student work that demonstrates their level of achievement & progress over time What are some tips for differentiating a lesson? - ✔ - Summary activities are independent curricular-based projects that students can personalize.
