| "Good teaching makes a difference" is a consistent finding in current literature. McREL's Classroom Instruction that Works workshop presents an overview of the best instructional practices as found in the research literature and then shows how these practices can be implemented in the classroom. Participants learn the powerful instructional strategies that are generally effective with any student, at any grade level, in any subject area. Specific types of knowledge-such as vocabulary, terms and phrases, details, generalizations, and principles-are applied to instructional practices. A model for sequencing instructional techniques throughout a unit of instruction is also examined. Available as on-site staff development at your school or district and as a summer institute at McREL. |
