 ELEMENTS OF EFFECTIVE INSTRUCTION

 

Data WorksÕ

EXPLICIT DIRECT INSTRUCTION

Anticipatory Set:

a.      T. focuses students

b.     T. states objectives

c.      T. establishes purpose of the lesson

d.     T. establishes transfer

 

Instruction:

a.      Provide information

¤       Explain concepts

¤       State definitions

¤       Provide examples

¤       Model

b.     Check for Understanding

¤       Pose key questions

¤       Ask students to explain concepts, definitions, attributes in their own words

¤       Have students discriminate between examples and non-examples

¤       Encourage students generate their own examples

¤       Use participation

 

Guided Practice:

a.      Initiate practice activities under direct teacher supervision

b.     Elicit overt responses from students that demonstrate behavior in objectives

c.      Check for understanding

d.     Provide specific knowledge of results

e.      Provide close monitoring

 

Closure:

a.      Make final assessment to determine if students have met objective

b.     Have each student perform behavior

 

Independent Practice:

a.      Have students continue to practice on their own

b.     Provide knowledge of results

Objectives:

a.      T. defines what students should be able to do, understand, know

 

Standards:

a.      T. informs students of the standards of performance

 

Anticipatory Set:

a.      T. focuses students attention on the lesson.

b.     T. creates framework for whatÕs to be presented

 

Teaching/Presentation:

a.      Input: provide info for students to gain knowledge or skill 

b.     Modeling: show examples of what is expected and how itÕs done

c.      Check for Understanding: determine that students know/understand before proceeding

 

Guided Practice:

a.      T. works with students as they do it together

b.     T. supervises students as they do it and provides praise, prompting or help

Closure:

a.      T. cues students to important points of lesson

b.     T. reviews and clarifies key points and connects to a coherent whole

 

Independent Practice:

a.      Students practice for reinforcement

b.     T. provides different contexts to apply skill/concept

 

Presentation:

a.      Learning objective:  include concept and skill

b.     Preview/Review: activate prior knowledge/connect to new content to be taught

 

Concept Development:

a.     Explain: what it is, why itÕs important, how itÕs done

b.     Skill Development: teach how to do the skill Š steps, graphic organizers, mnemonics

c.      Model: share first-person inner thoughts

d.     Demonstrate:

e.      Check for Understanding

 

Guided Practice

a.      T. works problem step-by-step along w/students at the same time

b.     T. slowly releases student to do more work on their own (semi-independent)

c.      Check for Understanding that students were correct at each step

 

Closure:

a.      Students prove that they know how to do the work

b.     T. verifies that students can describe the what and why of the work

c.      T. identifies students needing additional help

 

Assessment and Evaluation/Independent Practice:

a.      Students practice what they have learned

b.     Students do work by themselves with 80% accuracy

c.      T. provides effective, timely feedback
