Menu+of+Teaching+Strategies

The following is a list of selected teaching strategies modeled in EDTE 221S

 * Wait Time - giving students sufficient time to think and answer a question
 * Gallery Walk - individuals or groups of students complete a task and post their products; students walk around the room to see other students' work
 * CHIP response to a text -
 * ** C ** – What challenged you?
 * ** H ** – What helped you?
 * ** I ** – What inspired you?
 * ** P ** – What perplexed you?
 * Interactive lecture - asking students to get involved by stopping the lecture periodically for students to answer questions, discuss with a partner, or do another related activity
 * Analogies - compare/contrast a concept to an image/video/thing - Discuss what is similar and what is different (e.g. comparing curriculum to a chariot race)
 * In-class computer-based task - Students use web-based resources to complete a learning task. A clear task, suggested websites, and a clear end-product are helpful components.
 * Youtube Videos - Show instructional and engaging videos from youtube
 * Student presentations with guided reflection - Students teach and then reflect on the presentation based on pre-established criteria.
 * KWL charts - Supports students' learning from texts - K= What I already know, W = What I want to know, L = What I learned
 * Learning centers with a teacher-led instructional conversation
