Classroom Instruction That Works

INTERACT was created around the book titled Classroom Instruction That Works, a book written by Dr. Robert Marzano, etal.  This book details research-based strategies that have been proven to increase student achievement.  Marzano highlights the following strategies as being prevalent to learning...

• Identifying Similarities and Differences
• Summarizing and Note Taking
• Reinforcing Effort and Providing Recognition
• Homework and Practice
• Nonlinguistic Representation
• Cooperative Learning
• Setting Objectives and Providing Feedback
• Generating and Testing Hypotheses
• Cues, Questions, and Advance Organizers

During the week of INTERACT, we will look at most of these strategies from a student and teacher perspective.  We will explore new ways to incorporate these strategies and how technology could be a part of that.
