Learning Lingo Learning Theory: How people learn, links to instructional models (see handout). Curriculum Theory: Framework for what should to be taught. Instructional Models: Philosophical orientation to instruction. Instructional Strategy: Within each model several strategies can be used. Strategies determine the approach a teacher may take to achieve learning objectives. Strategies can be classed as direct, indirect, interactive, experiential, or independent. Method or Approach: Methods create learning environments to specify the nature of the activity in which the teacher and learner will be involved during the lesson (technique is used synonymously). The method is modified for differences among learners. http://www.sciencegeek.net/lingo.html https://www.flashcardmachine.com/teacher-jargon.html

UDL-Lesson Planning Flow Chart Lesson Information (subject/grade level) Instructional Goals Potential Lesson Activities Possible Barriers: who may be left out…focus on learner characteristics Variety or choices in how information is presented or materials provided Choice about how students show what they know Assessments as Learning / Metacognition –“I think about how I learn” Methods for Students to: notice the ways they learn best based on choices and variety provided and/or plan to improve their learning by choosing ways to learn that work best for them

Instructional Strategies and Methods Direct Instruction structured overview, mastery lecture, demonstration, drill & practice, compare & contrast, didactic questions, guides for reading, viewing & listening Indirect Instruction problem solving, case studies, reflective discussion, concept mapping, reading for meaning, inquiry Experiential Learning field trips, conducting experiments, games, field work, model building, model manipulation role playing, simulations, PBL, storylines (phenomena), 5Es Independent Study essays, computer modules (ADDIE), reports, learning contracts, research projects, learning centers Interactive Instruction debates, role playing, panels, brainstorming, peer practices, discussion, interviewing, cooperative learning groups, PBL I do, We do, You do Post it pile it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Hjc-oQb-FE Four corners Teaching (: Jigsaw I and II Method, 1971 (Interactive): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euhtXUgBEts Fish Bowl http://teachinglearningresources.pbworks.com/w/page/19919560/Instructional%20Approaches

What is the 5E Instructional Model? An instructional model based on the constructivist learning theory (i.e., help learners develop understanding on their own) Draws on students’ existing knowledge, beliefs and skills Student synthesize new understandings from prior learning and new information Teacher sets up the scenario for a problem and monitors student expiration, guides student inquiry, and promotes critical thinking Engage Explore Explain Elaborate Evaluate

Why use the 5E Instructional Model? The model is supported by science teacher educators and NSTA Research-Based, flexible, works with nearly all curricular subjects and other instructional methods and assessments Creating the 5Es Teacher & Student Behavior Creating the 5Es: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDAtdpQhxYk http://pdspalooza.pbworks.com/f/ALL.pdf 3,000+ returns on scholar.
