Congratulations

Example Experiment

“Why is it important to know the stuff on this test?” Student 1: So you can get a good grade and know you are doing good in science. Student 2: Your parents might get you an ICEE. Student 5: To make sure we have been paying attention.

“BUT SERIOUSLY, Why is it important to know the stuff on this test?” Student 7: I guess it is only important because of grades. Student 8: If you never measure rain, you don’t need to know about rain gauges. If you never do any of this stuff, it won’t help you at all. Student 9: If you can’t remember this stuff, it may not matter. You can always look it up.

We have to keep the brain in mind.

Learning Styles Mastery Duke Interpersonal Buddy Understanding Electra Self-Expressive Celeste

MASTERY - Start with clear expectations Tell students what they need to know and how to do it step by step Establish opportunities for concrete experiences Provide speedy feedback Separate practice from performance

INTERPERSONAL - Tie content to a personal experience Reinforce learning through support and positive feedback Use the world outside the classroom as a resource Select activities that build on personal experiences and cooperative structures Take time to help establish personal goals, encourage reflection, and praise performance

UNDERSTANDING - Provide questions that puzzle and data that teases Require students to hypothesize and develop plans of action before they explore answers Open the learning process to questions that stimulate deeper thought Build in opportunities for students to share their explanations and to provide evidence and proof for their ideas Evaluate students’ critical thinking and problem solving skills

SELF-EXPRESSIVE - Inspire students to think divergently and imaginatively Model creative work so students can examine and establish criteria for assessment Allow students choice of activities and multiple methods for showing what they know Give feedback, coach, and provide an audience for sharing work Evaluate and assess performance according to established criteria

be that teacher… who guides students to the edges of possibility; who uses challenge as motivation; who learns alongside their students; who provides meaningful and authentic learning experiences; who clearly loves to teach; that teacher who students remember forever.

Thank you.
