Another Way… Deductive Teaching • Teacher Writes on Board “Magnets are attracted to other metals, mostly those made of iron and steel” • Teacher Explains All Words, Ensures Meaningfulness • Teacher Asks Students For Examples • Teacher Gives Students Materials and Magnets • Students Predict Which Materials Will Be Attracted to magnets • Students Verify Predictions
Teacher Writes the Answer on Board … Teacher Explains All Words, Ensures Meaningfulness Teacher Asks Students For Examples Teacher Gives Students Materials and Magnets Students Predict Which Materials Will Be Attracted to Magnets Students Verify Predictions Teacher Gives Students Magnets Students Identify What Things Are Attracted to Magnets Students Generate Answer Based on heir Observations Teacher Gives Students Other Materials and Magnets Students Predict Which Materials Will Be Attracted to Magnets Students Verify Predictions Deductive Inductive

But There are Other Outcomes Concepts Defined Generalizations Concepts Rules Principles Outcomes
A Generalization • has a broad level of application. • contains two or more concepts. • states the relationship which exists between (among) the concepts found in the generalization.
Objects in motion tend to stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force • He more mass an object has the greater the force necessary to accelerate it • For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Objects in motiontend to stay in motion unless interacted upon by an outsideforce • He moremass an object has the greater the forcenecessary to accelerate it • For everyaction there is an equal and oppositereaction
As the size of a place changes the kinds of goods and services found in that place tend to change.
As the size of a place changes the kinds of goods and services found in that place tend to change. • When two or more societies interact, each tends to acquire some of the characteristics of the other society.
As the size of a place changes the kinds of goods and services found in that place tend to change. • When two or more societies interact, each tends to acquire some of the characteristics of the other society. • When two or more groups of people wish to use the same land in different ways, a conflict usually results.
When the people in a society feel that they are not being governed in their best interests they usually attempt top change the government to suit their interests.
How to teach rules and generalizations DEDUCTIVELY (and effectively) The work of David Ausubel
Ausubel’s Postulates • Thinking can be taught Deductive Thinking
Deductive Thinking General Specific
Basic Postulates • Learning is more than passive listening • Teacher must present generalizations that govern the meaningfulness of new information • The purpose of teaching is to strengthen cognitive structures
David P. Ausubel “Preconceptions are amazingly tenacious and resistant to extinction.” Advance Organizers
Elements of Ausubel Lessons • Advance Organizer Introductory material presented ahead of the learning task and at a higher level of abstraction and inclusiveness than the learning task itself.
Organizers, we have organizers … Concept Definition Landforms are land surfaces that have characteristic shapes and sizes. Analogy Two-paragraph comparison between river systems and the body’s circulatory system Generalization The more technology and knowledge humans possess, the less limiting are the influences of nature on human life.

A chemical bond is a state in which the atoms of two or more elements are at lower energy levels than they would be if they existed separately. • A Spanish verb is like a good mystery; it tells who did it and when. • A season is an arbitrary period of time with distinctive features. • When the ing ending is placed on words ending with vowel-consonant-e (e.g. mate, live), the e is dropped.
