Reinforcing Effort and Reinforcing Effort and Providing RecognitionProviding Recognition
Research •Students may not realize the relationship between effort and achievement, we must teach them
•Rewards are most effective when contingent on successfully completing a specific goal
10
Classroom Recommendations1. Teach students that effort can
improve achievement2. Ask students to chart effort and
achievement3. Establish a rationale for
recognition4. Follow guidelines for effective
and ineffective praise5. Use recognition tokens6. Use the pause, prompt, and praise
technique

Examples1. Joe was unable to make any connections
between the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. Ms. Anderson told him to focus on one characteristic and look for connections. When she returns, Joe explains how the African Americans faced discrimination in the army in both wars. Ms. Anderson congratulates him on finding a valid connection.
2. Ms. Anderson circulates as students are working in small groups. She pauses at Station 1 and comments, “Nice work on your calculation.” At Station 2 she says, “Nice work on your graphs.” At Station 3 she says, “Nice work on your calculations.”
12
3. You really did a good job working through all the steps and checking your answers for this problem. I know you’ve had difficulties with multi-step calculations before and sometimes settle for getting any answer down on paper, even if it wasn’t correct. Your determination with this task really showed.”
4. “Good job Jackson. Keep it up.”

Homework and PracticeHomework and Practice• What are the purposes of homework?
• What kind of homework do you assign your students?
• What makes homework effective and how do you know it has been?
• What is your opinion about the use of homework?
14
Classroom Recommendations1. Establish and communicate a
homework policy2. Clarify the purpose of homework3. Have students use homework
assignment sheets4. Provide feedback on homework5. Determine which skills are worth
practicing

Using Non-Linguistic Using Non-Linguistic RepresentationsRepresentations
• Linguistic talking about and reading content
• Non-Linguistic mental pictures and physical sensations
Research• teachers typically present new knowledge
linguistically• Engaging students in the creation of non-
linguistic representation actually stimulates and increases activity in the brain.
17
Classroom Recommendations1. Create graphic representations
through organizers2. Make physical models3. Generate mental pictures4. Draw pictures and pictographs5. Engage in kinesthetic activities
20
Incorporating Incorporating Cooperative Learning Cooperative Learning
EffectivelyEffectively
When students are given opportunities to interact with each other in a variety of ways
their learning is enhanced
Robert Marzano
21
Classroom Recommendations1. Use elements of cooperative
learning• Positive interdependence• Face-to-face promotive interaction• Individual and group accountability• Interpersonal and small group skills• Group processing
2. Vary group criteria3. Managing group size (3-5
recommended)
22
What are some other ways you have grouped students other than skill
level?

Setting Objectives and Setting Objectives and Providing FeedbackProviding Feedback
• Objectives and feedback give students directions and help them think about their learning
• Students learn more efficiently when they know the goals and objectives of a specific lesson or learning activity
• Feedback should be timely and refer to specific levels of performance
24
Classroom Recommendations1. Set objectives that are not too
specific2. Personalize objectives3. Communicate objectives4. Negotiate contracts5. Use criterion-referenced feedback
and explanations6. Use feedback from assessments7. Engage students in peer feedback8. Ask students to self-assess
27
Generating and Testing Generating and Testing HypothesisHypothesis
Explaining knowledge enhances learning!
Examples of Strategies– Systems analysis– Problem solving– Historical investigation– Invention– Experimental inquiry– Decision making
28
Classroom Recommendations1. Give students a model for the
process2. Use familiar content to teach
students the steps3. Give students graphic organizers4. Give students guidance as needed5. Ask students to explain their
hypotheses and conclusions
31
Questions, Cues, and Questions, Cues, and Advance OrganizersAdvance Organizers
• Cuesexplicit reminders about what a
student is about to experience
• Questionshelp students analyze what they
already know
• Advance Organizershelp students retrieve what they know
about a topic and focus on the new information
32
Classroom Recommendations1. Focus important information2. Use explicit cues3. Ask inferential and analytical
questions4. Use expository and narrative
advance organizers5. Teach students how to use graphic
advance organizers
