Instructional Strategies that Improve Student Learning

     In the book, Classroom Instruction that Works, by Marzano, Pickering and Pollock, nine different teaching strategies are identified that research has shown improve student learning. These nine strategies are:

Identifying similarities and differences

Summarizing and note taking

Reinforcing effort and providing recognition

Nonlinguistic representations

Cooperative learning

Setting objectives and providing feedback

Generating and testing hypotheses

Cues, questions and advance organizers

 

     These strategies are not new to most teachers, but they can be used well, which will improve student learning, or not so well which will have no effect. Let me know if you would be interested in discussing ways to use the strategies to get the most student learning. 

    If you are interested in a study guide for the book, or TONS of resources for each strategy,

    I'd also like to help you think of ways to include some of them into lessons you already teach.
Email me and we can find a time to meet!
