HISTORY OF THE RESEARCH FOR BETTER TEACHING
•Founded in 1979 by Dr. Jon Saphier, Research for Better is a school improvement organization with extensive experience in teaching and leadership. We work in-depth with over 100 school districts across the United States each year.
•The mission of RBT is to build individual and institutional capacity to sustain increased student achievement.
•RBT offers programs for teachers to support their professional growth, strengthen collegiality, and encourage experimentation through direct study of the knowledge base on teaching.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION
What do teachers do to create an atmosphere in which high expectations are communicated clearly and convincingly to all students, not just some?
![Page 8: Research for Better Teaching: High Expectations Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062310/5681641d550346895dd5da18/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
COMPONENTS OF HIGH EXPECTATIONS TEACHING
• Teacher choice of language• Regular classroom mechanisms• Daily instructional strategies• Explicitly teaching students what effective
effort is
![Page 9: Research for Better Teaching: High Expectations Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062310/5681641d550346895dd5da18/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
TEACHER CHOICE OF LANGUAGE IN:
• Patterns of calling on students• Giving Help• Responses to student answers• Dealing with errors• Being tenacious• Giving Tasks and Assignments• Positive Re-framing of Re-Teaching
![Page 10: Research for Better Teaching: High Expectations Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062310/5681641d550346895dd5da18/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

You can do it.
I won’t give up on you…even when you give up on yourself.

RESPONDING TO STUDENT ANSWERS AND TENACITY IN MELISSA WOOD’S 7TH GRADE MATH CLASS
Sticking With Students ----> Wait Time + Prompting = Success!
Wait Time: Can Be Uncomfortable Prompting: Only after waiting (purposeful pause)Success: Rewarding
“Come on, you
can do it!” “Ms. Woods, you didn’t stick with the student!”
“Don’t give Up!”
![Page 12: Research for Better Teaching: High Expectations Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062310/5681641d550346895dd5da18/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
REGULAR CLASSROOM MECHANISMS (MOTIVATIONAL STRUCTURES):
• Frequent quizzes, feedback and data to students• Student Self-corrections• Student Error Analysis• Regular re-teaching, retakes, and required re-do’s• Grading practices• Cooperative Learning and teaching of group skills• Extra help• Clear, accessible criteria for success and exemplars• Learning study strategies• Self-evaluation• Student goal setting

RETAKING TESTS IN JASON LUKEHART’S 4TH GRADE CLASS
Jason Lukehart
To insist that the original grade is the only one that matters sends children the message that education is about scores and deadlines. “These are the things you’re supposed to know, and if you don’t know them this date, then the time you put in to trying to know them was wasted, because we’re moving on.” On the other hand, allowing students to retake tests sends the message that what matters is learning. Students should be encouraged to keep at something until they understand it, whether that happens on day one, or day one hundred.

DAILY INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES FOR:
• Communicating objectives with criteria for success in student friendly language
• Giving students feedback according to criteria for success with precise diagnostic guidance
• Checking for Understanding• Making Students’ Thinking Visible• Frequent student summarizing
![Page 17: Research for Better Teaching: High Expectations Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062310/5681641d550346895dd5da18/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Mastery Objectives
Students will be able to answer…• What will I be able to do when I've finished this lesson?• How will I show that I can do this, and how well will I
have to do it? • What new knowledge or skill is important for me to
learn and understand so that I can do this?
Teachers need to dig into the content to examine its nuances and central ideas before arriving at the objective.
![Page 18: Research for Better Teaching: High Expectations Teaching and Learning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062310/5681641d550346895dd5da18/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
PLANNING CONFERENCESA planning conference • Is a thoughtful look at the nuances of the content to improve lesson effectiveness
• Focuses on the concepts and how they relate to each other and what might be difficult for students to learn
• Identifies what is really important and results in a better sequencing of activities

ANGELA DOLEZAL CONDUCTING PLANNING CONFERENCES AT LONGFELLOW
Steps Quotes
Dive right into the content “What content will you be focusing on?”
Directly examine the actual materials that will be used to teach the content
“What materials will you be handing to the students?”
Focus on key concepts that the teacher wants the students to take away from the lesson
“What are the most important things you want them to understand?”
Delve deeply into the meaning of the content with particular focus on the key concepts
“Can you explain that a little further?”“What exactly do you mean when you say…?”
Break down the concepts hierarchically “What do students need to know from prior experience in order to move forward?” “Which part of this concept do you think students need to understand first?
Have the teacher state the objective in kid-friendly language
“How will you present the objectives to the class?”
