"Do-It-Yourself" Professional LearningOur Professional Learning Kits provide the resources and instructions to help you deliver our popular training sessions. FORMATIVE (CONTINUOUS) ASSESSMENT: A key to success for individual students is using classroom assessment to guide instruction. Examine many types of classroom assessment so teachers can monitor student progress toward academic goals and learn ways to better meet student needs. Tools and resources are provided to help make this process easier and more efficient, while still valuing individual learners. ALL-STAR STRATEGIES : Look at key ideas from a wide variety of education literature and leaders. Strategies are organized around Robert Marzano’s research-based classic, “What Works in Schools: Translating Research Into Action.” Learn what experts and research says and how to apply it in your school. MARZANO BASICS: SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES: Marzano found that identifying similarities and differences is one of the most effective instructional practices — and when used correctly this strategy results in substantially higher test scores. Learn how. NON-LINGUISTIC REPRESENTATION: Marzano’s research pinpoints non-linguistic representations as a strategy allowing students to learn, extend, and demonstrate their understanding through models, pictures, graphics, and movement. Great for addressing a variety of learning styles. Pairs nicely with Similarities and Differences. |
