Carroll’s Model of Effective Instruction • Aptitude • Ability to Understand Instruction • Perseverance • Opportunity • Quality of Instruction
Slavin’s QAIT Model of Effective Instruction Quality of Instruction Appropriate Levels of Instruction Incentive Time
Grouping to Accommodate Achievement Differences • Tracking • Between-Class Ability Grouping • Within-Class Ability Grouping • Regrouping for Reading and Mathematics • Untracking (Multidimensional; mixed grouping) • Nongraded (Cross-Age Grouping) Elementary Schools
Mastery Learning • Characteristics • Varies Instructional Time, Not Level of Achievement (Hospital Rule) • Assumes All Students Can Learn Essential Skills • Forms • Additional Out-of-Class Instruction • Block and Anderson Formula
Block and Anderson Formula for Mastery Learning • Teach Lesson Based on a Learning Objective • Give Formative Test • Students Who Meet Criterion Receive Enrichment Activities • Students Who Fail to Meet Criterion Receive Corrective Instruction • Summative Test
The Saxon Approach • Practice • Practice • Practice
Individualizing Instruction: Programmed Instruction • Individualized • Self-Instructional Materials • Disappointing Results
Individualizing Instruction:Computer-Based Instruction • Using a Structured Curriculum • Letting Students Work at Their Own Pace • Giving Students Controlled, Frequent Feedback and Reinforcement • Measuring Performance Quickly and Giving Students Information on Their Performance

No Child Left Behind--NCLB • NCLB’s Incentives and Sanctions • All Students Must Reach Proficient Level by 2014 • Each Year Schools Must Reduce Number of Students NOT Reaching Proficiency by 10% • Sanctions Begin for Title I Schools Not Meeting AYP after Two Years • Schools Not Meeting Target Achievement After Five Years Can be Closed/Restructured • Schools in Need of Improvement can Receive Technical Assistance—using Scientifically Based Practices
