Objective L apply knowledge of the elements of effective instruction and effective lesson design D by constructing a lesson you taught today using the ITIP Principles
Teaching is the process of professionaldecision-making and the translation of those decisions i into actions which h make learning more efficient, more probable and more predictable. ~Madeline Hunter
Classroom Responsibilities Human Relations Skills Knowledge of Content INSTRUCTIONAL SKILLS Knowledge Of Use of Materials Knowledge of Child Development Classroom Management Skills Planning Skills
The Essential Elements of Instruction Select the Objective at the Correct Level of Difficulty Teach to the Objective Monitor the Learners and Adjust the Learning Use the Principles of Learning
Writing the Objective All learners will (Blooms verb)+ (Content) by (behavior/assessment). All learners will analyze the traits of mammals by comparing and contrasting their characteristics i on a Venn Diagram. All learners will know the basic math acts through 20 by recalling the facts at 90% accuracy in a timed test of 25 problems. All learners will evaluate a persuasive writing sample by critiquing it according to a rubric and supporting their conclusions.
Knows/Remembers The ability to remember, by recognition or recall, previously learned materials Arrange, recall, check, show, select, tally, group, write, underline, identify
Understands The ability to group meaning from material by translating it from one form to another, by interpreting (explaining or summarizing) material or by estimating future trends (predicting or consequences of effects) Comprehend, change, transform, advance, offer, project, constructs, outlines, explains, demonstrates
Application The ability to use learned material in new and concrete situations Apply, capitalize, classify, collect, manipulate, organize, solve, utilize
Analysis The ability to break down material into its organizational structure so that it m ay be more thoroughly understood Breakdown, check, take apart, scrutinize, infer, look into, simplify, study
Evaluation The ability to judge the value of material for a given purpose and base the judgment on a definitive criteria Appraise, assess, classify, conclude, critique, determine, evaluate, judge, rank, rate
Synthesis/Creating The ability to put parts together to form a new whole Blend, build, create, compose, construct, generate, make, originate, revise, structure
Teach to An Objective Provide Information Ask Questions Respond to the Effort of Learners Design Activities Active Engagement! Expecting all children the same age to learn from the same materials is like expecting all children the same age to wear the same size clothing. Madeline Hunter
Monitor the Learners and Adjust the Learning The teachers ability to elicit covert responses from the learners and make changes in the teaching To say that you have taught when students haven't learned is to say you have sold when no one has bought. But how can you know that students have learned without spending hours correcting tests and papers?... check students understanding while you are teaching (not at 10 o'clock at night when you're correcting papers) so you don't move on with unlearned material that can accumulate like a snowball and eventually engulf the student in confusion and despair. ~ Madeline Hunter
Use the Principles of Learning Anticipatory Set An effective set must: Be congruent to the objective Transfer prior learning Involve the learners A set is used: At the beginning of the lesson After an interruption To move to another part of a lesson At the end to prepare for the next day Motivation Feeling tone Verbal and non-verbal messages Level of Concern Anxiety or accountability in a situation Interest Curiosity about leaning Knowledge of Results Give specific feedback Success A feeling of achievement
