Setting Rules

Predetermined

Student Centered

Simple, Clear & Far Reaching

Supportive of Learning

Achievable & Enforceable

Followed by All

Establishing Consequences

When/how should we introduce new rules & consequences?

What would happen if students chose the consequences?

Some techniques for dealing with an infraction. Confront the behavior, not the person

The quiet confrontation (never in front of the class)

The power of peer pressure

How Do Students Learn Best?

Learning Pyramid (National Training Laboratories in 1960)

Conclusion: students learn better and retain more when

Not passive learners‐ listening to a lecture, reading, using

audiovisual content

Actively involved ‐ teaching others, practicing doing, discussing

Lecture (5%)

Groups

Why groups?

When should group work be implemented?

What activities can be done in groups?

Simultaneous Interaction Increases Engagement and Participation

StructurePercent Actively Engaged at Once

Student Participation Time

Keep ‘em Moving

You should not remain at a fixed point in the classroom

Neither should your students

Create kinesthetic activities that keep your students and yourself moving around the room.

The Teacher’s Role

Do teachers have to lecture to be effective teachers?

Knowledge Banking:

Teachers deposit information into the minds of their students, and do not place importance on student self-discovery of knowledge or critical thinking. (Freire 2007)

Also known as the open vessel or blank slate concept .

Quietly Commanding Attention

Wait for all students to be quiet and focused before speaking?

Get quieter not louder (ie.do not raise your voice for attention).

Thank those who demonstrate the desired behavior?

Use nonverbal cues?

Do you:

Modeling

Act out concepts in front of the class?

Point out good behavior? Ask students to demonstrate?

Do you:

Error Correction

Self CorrectionNon-Corrective

RepetitionTargeted Correction

Peer CorrectionRecastingBoard-WorkParroting / Echoing (good

or bad?)

Positive Reinforcement

The Power of Praise

Types of Rewards

Peer Praise & Public Praise

Feedback

What are some different forms of feedback?

How can we get accurate feedback about our classroom presence?

How can surveys be useful in planning a student centered class?
