RESEARCH PROBLEM:
“THE INCIDENCE OF TEACHING FOR UNDERSTANDING
METHODOLOGY ON THE READING SKILL DEVELOPMENT
FOR STUDENTS ATTENDING THE THIRD LEVEL OF THE ESPE’S ONSITE ENGLISH PROGRAM,
DURING THE OCTOBER 2007 – MARCH 2008 TERM”.
![Page 3: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
The use of inadequate methodologies causes misunderstanding and misconceptions about reading.
Insufficient transference of knowledge causes that students are not motivated in order to learn.
Reading is not part of our culture.
Students have to think through concepts and situations, rather than memorize and give back on the quiz, and then we need students who can understand what they are learning .

WHAT IS UNDERSTANDING?
Gardner and Perkins say that understanding a topic of study is a matter of being able to perform in a variety of thought-demanding ways with the topic, for instance to: explain, find examples, generalize, apply concepts, analyze, represent in a new way, and so on.
Understanding shows its face when people can think and act flexibly around what they know.
In contrast, when a learner cannot go beyond memorization and routine thought and action, this signals lack of understanding.
![Page 16: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
THE TEACHING FORUNDERSTANDING
FRAMEWORK
It was the culmination of a six-year project founded on the research of Howard Gardner, David Perkinsand Vito Perrone.
This framework asserts that learners who have understanding can evaluateand defend ideas and can use productiveresearch strategies to generate,and inquire into problems and questions.
It highlights four key concepts: generative topics, understanding goals,performances of understanding and ongoing assessment.
![Page 17: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THE TFU.METHODOLOGY
1. Generative Topics
Students will learn how to interpret texts.
2. Understanding Goals
Students will understand how authors create
3. Understanding Performances
They are the heart of developing understanding
4. Ongoing Assessment
It comes at the end of a topic and focuses on grading
![Page 18: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
GENERATIVE TOPICS
They are interesting to students.
They are accesible to students.
They have multiple connections to the experiences of students both in and out of school.
They are interesting to the teacher
![Page 19: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PLANNING GENERATIVE TOPICS
A first step is to brainstorm ideas, preferably with colleagues.
Then, create idea webs around them. Consider concepts, projects, resources, connections, and so on.
Next, make selections from the idea web.
Finally, look for topics that are steeped in controversy, that are open to considerations from many different perspectives, which require students to formulate their own opinions.
![Page 20: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
UNDERSTANDING GOALS
Understanding goals identify the concepts, and skills that we most want our students to understand.
They are formulated in two ways: as statements (in forms such as, "Students will understand ...") and as open-ended questions ("What are the important similarities and differences among different genres of literature?").
They focus on the central aspects of a generative topic.
![Page 21: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PLANNING UNDERSTANDING GOALS
Make a first step at articulating those goals. Brainstorming is often a good way to do this. Ask yourself, "Why am I teaching this topic?"
Begin with generative topics or performances of understanding, then try to identify understanding goals.
Write down whatever comes to mind. Many teachers find that working with groups is often helpful here.
![Page 22: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
PERFORMANCES OF UNDERSTANDING
They are activities which require students to use what they know in new ways or situations to build their understanding of unit topics.
They give both teacher and students a chance to see their understanding development in new and challenging situations over time.
Performances of understanding involve students in publicly demonstrating their understanding.
![Page 23: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
PLANNING PERFORMANCES OF UNDERSTANDING
For the performances you select, think about how to build in opportunities for students to get feedback on and revise their work as they carry out those performances.
Teachers could start by thinking about activities their students have done in the past that seemed especially productive.
When you have generated a number of them, try to sequence the performances so that they occur throughout the unit, from the beginning to the end.
![Page 24: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Think about the following kinds of
performances as you work:
Guided Inquiry Performances. - Students focus on developing their understanding of particular problems or aspects of the generative topic you feel are especially important.
Introductory Performances. - Usually come first in a unit. They give students a chance to explore the generative topic a bit.
Culminating Performances.- They give students a chance to synthesize and demonstrate the understandings they developed through the other performances of understanding.
![Page 25: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
ONGOING ASSESSMENT There are two principal components of the
ongoing assessment process: establishing criteria and providing feedback.
Criteria for each performance of understanding need to be:
Clear (articulated explicitly at the beginning of each performance of understanding, though they may well evolve over the course of the performance, especially if it is new to the teacher as well as the students).
Relevant (closely related to the understanding goals for the unit).
Public (everyone in the classroom knows and understands them).
![Page 26: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ONGOING ASSESSMENT Feedback needs toFeedback needs to:
Occur frequently, from the beginning of the unit to its conclusion.
Provide students with information not only about how well they have carried out performances but also how they might improve them.
Inform your planning of subsequent classes and activities.
Come from a variety of perspectives: from students' reflection on their own work, from classmates reflecting on one another's work, and from the teacher.
![Page 27: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
TEACHING WITH ONGOING ASSESSSMENT
Model for students how to provide feedback that both tells them how well they are doing and give them information about how they might do better.
Try inviting students to develop the criteria themselves by looking at models of similar performances.
Portfolios and reflection journals can be useful tools for students to track their learning over time.

READING SKILL DEVELOPMENT

DEFINING READING DEFINING READING COMPREHENSIONCOMPREHENSION
It is the process of simultaneously extracting and constructing meaning through interaction and involvement with written language. We use the words extracting and constructing to emphasize both the importance and the insufficiency of the text as a determinant of reading comprehension.
![Page 30: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Comprehension has the following logical sequence:
• The reader who is doing the comprehending
• The text that is to be comprehended
• The activity in which comprehension is a part.
• The context where the learning process for reading takes place.
![Page 31: DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGES APPLIED LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH PROGRAM](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062809/568158bd550346895dc6060d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

THE CONTEXTTHE ACTIVITY
The features of any given text have a large impact on comprehension, the reader constructs some representations of the text that are important for comprehension.
It is the set of facts or circumstances that surround a situation or event inside and outside the classroom.
It involves one or more purposes or tasks, some operations to process the text, and the outcomes of performing the activity, all of which occur within some specific context.
Brings to the act of reading his/her cognitive capabilities, motivation, knowledge, and experiences.

CONCLUSIONS1. To enact TfU designs in the classroom, teachers need to
understand how to present ideas, answer questions, and guide performances so that students successfully engaged in performing their understandings.
2. The artistry of Teaching for Understanding Methodology lies in interpreting the framework elements and adapting them to meet the demands of a particular context while expressing the teacher’s unique commitments, passions, and personality.
3. This methodology helped to promote and track students’ understanding and adjust curriculum to their needs. “Teaching for Understanding” is more centralized on the student than the pedagogy. Thus, understanding and good teaching are the result of careful attention to four important areas – spotlighted – in the framework.
4. To apply TfU elements and principles in the classroom, teachers must understand how to adapt their curriculum designs, considering students’ evolving understandings and adjusting assignments to support and challenge both individual students and the class as a whole.

RECOMMENDATIONS1. It would be a good recommendation to introduce this new methodology
in the On-site English Program, because at the classroom practice level teachers need opportunities to experience cycles of learning, enacting, assessing and revising their practice in relation to the TfU Methodology, and it provides a structure for supporting teachers in understanding TfU at the level of classroom practice.
2. The Elements for Planning and Instruction, that should be applied in a successful teaching process, invite to students to put in action their comprehension, but teachers have to evaluate and guide the students’ progress toward to get goals of comprehension.
3. Using this methodology, students are able to move flexibly across dimensions, relating the criteria by which knowledge is built and validated in a discipline to its object of study or the purposes of inquiry, and they can use knowledge to reinterpret and act upon the world around them.
4. This analysis about TfU Methodology shows that an examination of the students’ comprehension in terms of methods, ways of communication, reading skill development, contents and proposals, is an excellent way of thinking about the student’s comprehension, and further of the specific goals of researching, and it can permit to the teachers to warn to the students their fulfillment about what they have to do.

INTRODUCTION
Project Zero is a research group at the Harvard Graduate School of Education that has investigated the development of learning processes in children, adults, and organizations since 1967.
The mission is to understand and enhance learning, thinking, and creativity in the arts, as well as humanistic and scientific disciplines
During the first three years, the collaborators developed a framework that stresses in-depth learning, which provides teachers with a language and structure for planning their curriculum and for discussing teaching for understanding with other colleagues and with their students.
