Scaffolding

Adjusting the support offered during a teaching session to fit the child's current level of performance An effective way to move classroom instruction from teacher-centered, whole-group delivery to student-centered independent practice and collaboration. Sometimes referred to as "I do, we do, you do," this approach uses a plan of instruction that includes demonstration, prompt, and practice.

Weschler

Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) is an IQ test designed to measure intelligence and cognitive ability in adults and older adolescents.

Friedrich Froebel

Stressed the respect with which the individuality and ability of each child should be treated and emphasized play as a foundation on which the integrated development of the whole person can be built. In 1837 he established the Play and Activity Institute, which he renamed Kindergarten in 1840. Kindergartens embrace structured, activity-based learning and creative play.

Revisiting Skills

Students are not always ready to learn a skill or concept and many do not master content on first exposure. By doing this, students are able to deepen their knowledge, understanding, and skills. Each successive encounter and opportunity for practice builds on previous learning, helping students internalize key concepts and skills.

positive reinforcement

Students who do not get enough positive attention will often settle for negative attention. A student is more likely to repeat a behavior that gains praise and positive attention.

Standards

Well-written instructional objectives are linked to ______________________.

Semantic map

a form of graphic organizer that helps students visualize various connections between words and ideas. good pre-writing activity

A concept web

a method of diagramming ideas or concepts related to a key subject or topic Linking words or phrases can be added on the connecting lines to describe how concepts are related.

learned helplessness

a phenomenon in which individuals who have failed at tasks in the past conclude erroneously that they are incapable of improving their performance. Students who believe that failure is due to lack of control or ability give up easily.

divergent thinking

a thought process used to generate ideas by exploring many possible solutions. free-flowing manner. Open-ended questions allow for a variety of possible responses and are intentionally designed to provoke this thinking by encouraging students to think at a deeper level than rote memory.

Flexible Grouping

a thoughtful and deliberate match between students and their specific skill needs. Group membership is based on assessment data and is not static, but changes according to students' skill acquisition. a practice that maximizes engagement and immediate, corrective feedback and provides opportunities for every student to experience success.

Communication Theory

an individual is likely to be most successful in achieving communication goals when his or her message is tailored to reach the target audience. conveys respect, promotes engagement, and helps ensure that the audience hears the message as it is intended.

Differentiated instruction

assumes that there is a diversity of learners in every classroom and that all of those learners can be reached using techniques and materials that are tailored to their individual learning needs.

fine motor skills

can be developed most effectively by manipulating objects with hands and fingers. Modeling clay and rolling pins naturally prompt students to engage in molding, shaping, and rolling actions. These actions help students gain greater control of the muscles in their hands and fingers as well as strengthen their grip.

Expectations

establishing the foundation for a productive student learning community leads to cooperative, on-task behaviors

Motivation

focusing on small improvements and distinctions over time. By linking students' success to effort, teachers help students gain confidence in their abilities Carol Dweck's "growth mindset"

giving families the right to choose the specific public schools their children attend rather than having them assigned to a school based on place of residence. Calls for a major restructuring of the educational system, proposing that government give vouchers or tax credits to families to enroll their children at public or private schools of their choice. Forcing schools to compete for students and resources will increase the quality of education for all students.

logical consequences

help children develop internal understanding, self-control, and a desire to follow the rules. based on the belief that, with reflection and practice, children will want to do better. The steps involved in this help children look more closely at their behaviors and consider the results of their choices.

Sensorimotor

made to determine whether a student has learned the material taught in a specific grade or course. Students are then scored based on how well they know a standard or set of standards.

Purposes of assessment

monitoring, comparing, screening, diagnosing

Administering standardized tests

must be given under standardized conditions and administered uniformly. It is important that no student or students be given an unfair advantage or disadvantage. Standardized tests generally have a test administration manual that includes oral instructions that must be read verbatim. The goal of this uniformity is to make the test results as objective as possible so they can be considered valid and meaningful.

nonverbal strategy to promote effective communication the individual's arms are relaxed at the sides. Facing the student in this posture conveys that the teacher welcomes the student's comments and is ready to listen to whatever the student has to say.

Transitions

periods of time when teachers direct students to end one task and begin another. Should be streamlined, explicitly taught, and have clear endings and beginnings they minimize disruptions and off-task behavior. Less time spent on this means more time available for teaching and learning.

Characteristics of gifted students

persistence and intense concentration in areas of interest among the traits frequently associated with general intellectual ability. often ignore or spend minimal time and attention on topics that do not interest them.

interest centers

provide these students with a selection of activities they can pursue while waiting for others to finish assignments a proactive approach for preventing off-task behavior and lost learning time. specific materials and activities prompt students to practice important concepts and skills.

Key factors to consider in planning instruction

state standards; curriculum goals; nature of the subject matter; learning theory; students' development, characteristics, thinking, and prior experiences; students' current knowledge and skills; available time and resources

Self-directed learning

students exercise a great deal of independence in setting learning goals and deciding what to learn as well as how to approach the learning task Students are given the opportunity to pursue their own interests so that learning becomes more meaningful, and students' responsibilities in self-directed learning activities require their active involvement

Cooperative learning

students work together in small groups on a structured activity. Research studies have shown that, compared with competitive or individual work, this leads to higher quality reasoning strategies

Informal assessments

teacher observation, peer assessment, self assessment

Guided practice

the process of supporting students as they make their first attempt at a new concept. The teacher provides praise, prompts, and corrective and immediate feedback as students work through an activity.

Elaboration

when a student expands upon content to be learned (e.g., creating a sentence, making an analogy). connects, or bridges, information to be learned with what students already know, creating efficiency of learning and memory.

unfair penalization

when it is not the students' ability that leads to poor performance but the students' characteristics or membership in a particular subgroup. ex. if an assessment task is set in the context of football, the context becomes a biasing factor if particular groups of students know less about football than other groups of students.
