The Rule of 10 & 2 Research Based Rule Maximum: 10 Minutes of Lecture Minimum: 2 Minutes of Collaboration
Research Indicates Learning is optimized when students are actively engaged in the process. Research on instruction shows that most of us remember: • 10% of what we read • 20% of what we hear • 30% of what we see • 50% of what we both see and hear • 70% of what we have discussed with others • 80% of what we have experienced personally • 95% of what we teach someone else

Types of Learning Styles There are many different types of learning inventories, but three main learning styles: • Visual • Audio • Tactile/Kinesthetic By integrating collaborative learning, you will automatically be appealing to different learning styles. www.themegallery.com
Tips for Different Learning Styles Pink Sheet • Auditory: Record a Summary of What you have learned (Group Discussions: The role of the scribe) • Visual: Take notes, make pictures of concepts, create graphs, and create charts (Group Concept Maps: Colored Markers and a white board) • Kinesthetic/Tactile: Use models, real objects, create using technology, and materials that can be touched and moved. (Small Groups: Acting out a Concept) www.themegallery.com
Hand-Outs Different Types of Learning Style Inventories • Yellow: 2 Copies- Basic Inventory • Orange and Purple: More in-depth Inventories Know your own learning style: Complete one of the Yellow sheets and discuss with your Neighbor. Do you feel the inventory is correct? Why/Not? www.themegallery.com
