Group Norms • Are Respectful of Other’s Opinions and Listen with an Open Mind; Limit the Use of Electronics for Checking Emails for Breaks; Focus on Instructional Model and not Evaluation Process • Collaborate in Group Work • Take Responsibility for Engaging in Learning and Continuous Growth It’s Okay to have Fun! Suffering is Optional.
GOAL The participant will be able to describe and implement effective teaching strategies to help students effectively interact with new knowledge.
21st Century “ The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” Alvin Toffler, 2001

Lesson Segment Addressing Content DQ2. Helping Students Interact with New Knowledge
Common Language of Instruction A research based framework that describes and defines teaching. The common language provides a foundation for professional conversation.
All Lessons Addressing Content Include: • Providing Clear Learning Goals • Tracking Student Progress • Celebrating Student Success • Establishing Classroom Routines • Organizing the Physical Layout of the Classroom for Learning • Lesson Segment: Enacted on the Spot
Marzano’s Key Research Conclusions for Instruction • Students should clearly understand the purpose of what they are learning and why they are learning the content • Instruction of key knowledge and skills leads to independent transfer/application • Effective learning requires students to move toward conceptual understanding • Effective classrooms are collaborative partnerships and true communities of learning
Design Question 2 What will I do to help students effectively interact with new knowledge?
Critical Input Experiences Providing input to students regarding new content: • Reading a section of textbook • Listening to information presented • Observing a demonstration or participating in a demonstration • Watching a short video clip • Discussions in small groups
8. Previewing New Content The Anticipation Guide was deliberately chosen to begin the process of previewing the new content. There are many ways to preview new content. The Anticipation Guide is used to activate prior knowledge of the Design Question and provide connections to experience and practice. Activating prior knowledge is considered a previewing strategy, because previewing is defined as any activity that starts students thinking about the new content.
Anticipation Guide • Round Robin • Round 1: For 60 seconds, discuss an item that you rated 3 or 4. • Round 2: For 60 seconds, discuss an item that you rated 1 or 2. • When you hear the chime, switch partners.
Critical Information If students understand CRITICAL INPUT EXPERIENCES, student have a good start to accomplish the learning goal. The Art and Science of Teaching
Why Critical Information A number of cognitive psychologists offer support for the position that teachers must provide guidance as to the important aspects of the new content (Anderson, Greeno, Reder & Simon 2000). Nuthall’s work suggests that those learning experiences that are critical to understanding new content should be identified and highlighted by teachers.
Video 6. Critical Information
Processing the Content • Teachers’ should facilitate students actively processing the content in groups. • Research and theory supports the need for students to process new information in ways that make personal sense. • Allows students to experience content from multiple perspectives The Art and Science of Teaching
Common Components of Macro-Strategies • Summarizing and Note Taking • Nonlinguistic Representation • Questions • Reflection • Cooperative Learning
Using Descriptions, Discussions and Predictions to Enhance Understanding • After each small chunk of information provided students should work in small groups to describe, discuss, and make predictions regarding new information. DQ 2 - Indicator #10
Reciprocal Teaching Roles Group Leader – Keep group focused and on schedule Facilitator – Asks questions to focus dialogue Summarizer – Summarizes content after discussion
Reciprocal Teaching Roles • What are the main ideas? • What questions do we have? • Are there areas we need to clarify? • What predictions can we make?
Concept Attainment • Leading students to understand a concept by asking them to compare and contrast examples (exemplars) that contain the characteristics (attributes) of the concept with examples that do not contain those attributes. • It is a PROCESS in constructing a meaningful definition of the concept.
