Find a new friend in the room (a mix of specialties is the best). Introduce
yourself and share what you will be ‘doing’. Find 2 comfortable seats and relax.
*Please bring your handout and a pen(cil)!
Work collaboratively (e.g., construct viable arguments, critique, agree) to identify key
words that capture the essential elements of
strategies to assist all students to be
successful with fidelity.
Enjoy working with your new best friend.
successful learning strategiesCREATING AN
ENVIRONMENT FOR LEARNING
SETTING OBJECTIVES AND
PROVIDING FEEDBACK
Unpacking the Standard
1. Create an Environment for Learning– Helping students know what is expected of them, providing
students with opportunities for regular feedback on progress, assuring students they are capable of learning content and skills
2. Helping Students Develop Understanding– Integrating prior knowledge with new knowledge– Procedural knowledge: constructing a model of the steps
required of the process and practicing its variations; using the process or skill fluently or without any conscious thought
3. Helping Students Extend and Apply Knowledge– Moving beyond ‘right answer’ learning to an expanded
understanding and use of concepts and skills in real-world contexts.
