  1. The foundation of the AVIDCurriculum WICR Inquiry Writing Reading Collaboration 2011- Tulsa Community College- Engaged Student Programming

  2. Writing Writing allows students to think in complex ways, build critical thinking skills and developing knowledge of oneself and the outside world. Students in the AVID classroom use writing in a variety of ways to extend and generate thinking, analyze and organize their own thought-processes, and revise and review current understandings. • Prewrite • Draft • Respond • Revise • Edit • Final draft • Class and Textbook Notes • Learning Logs/Journals Strategies used in AVID 2011- Tulsa Community College- Engaged Student Programming

  3. Strategies • Skilled Questioning • Socratic Seminars • Quickwrite& Discussion • Critical Thinking Activities • Writing Questions • Open-Mindedness Activities Inquiry Students learn best by engaging with their own thinking process and this kind of engagement encourages a sense of ownership over their learning. The AVID student is an equal participant in a Socratic tutorial session that engages him/her in asking critical questions, pursuing understanding and potentially revising his/her own thinking. Students use Costa’s model of questioning that levels learning from lower-level gather and recall to higher-level application and evaluation. 2011- Tulsa Community College- Engaged Student Programming

  4. Collaboration • Strategies • Group Projects • Study Groups • Jigsaw Activities • Read-Arounds • Response/Edit/Revision Groups • Collaborative Activities Collaboration actively engages each student in the process of learning, because it relies on the multitude of opinions and evidence each student brings to the discussion. Tutorials reinforce previous learning and encourage students to think ahead. Students will internalize what they have studied and learned if they are able to collaborate with others and make connections. 2011- Tulsa Community College- Engaged Student Programming

  5. Reading AVID focuses on reading to increase comprehension, awareness of the different reasons for reading and understanding of the different structures of texts. Strategies instruct students on how to use context clues to determine the meaning of unknown words, predicting, visualizing, and monitoring for comprehension. • Strategies • SQ3R ( Survey, Question, Read, Recite,Review) • KWL (What I know; What to learn; What I learned) • Reciprocal teaching • Think-alouds • Literary circles 2011- Tulsa Community College- Engaged Student Programming
