At a teacher institute I heard an eduinfluencer make the claim that teachers can only name and describe 3 evidence based strategies they use in their classroom. Challenge accepted. Each day I’m working through the book The ABCs of How We Learn and pairing a strategy with physics content/activities in my classroom.
- A is for Analogy
- B is for Belonging
- C is for Contrasting Cases
- D is for Deliberate Practice
- E is for Elaboration
- F is for Feedback
- G is for Generation
- H is for Hands On
- I is for Interleaving
- J is for Just in Time Telling
- K is for Knowledge
- L is for Listening and Sharing
- M is for Making
- N is for Norms
- O is for Observation
- P is for Participation
- Q is for Question Driven
- R is for Reward
- S is for Self-Explanation
- T is for Teaching
- U is for Undoing
- V is for Visualization
- W is for Worked Examples
- X is for eXcitement
- Y is for Yes I Can
- Z is for Zzzz… but we aren’t teaching sleep in the physics classroom!
