  3. Big Ideas of PowerTeaching • An instructional process that links PA Standards Aligned System to research-proven instructional processes that increase student achievement. • Can be used with any textbook or curriculum • Moves from a teacher-centered classroom to a student centered classroom • Focuses on teamwork

  4. Description • Teamwork is the theme of PowerTeaching and cooperative learning is stressed. Students are placed into teams and they learn how to work together to solve problems.

They learn how to explain their thinking and how to listen to their peers way of thinking; enhances their own understanding. The success of the team depends upon the individual learning of each team member so students are held accountable for their own learning.
