According to Reutzel (On Balanced Reading), historically, balanced reading has been a combination of what two things?
The New Zealand concept of balance is based on what blend of factors?
What ideas for implementing the New Zealand style do you have for your classroom?
From Constructivism and Understanding, “Students become engaged in topics or units because a central theme in such education is the making of connections with students’ own lives.”
“Teaching for Understanding” (TfU) asks students, “to make new connections within their various words, construct mental images that go beyond their current understandings, and imagine themselves and their circumstances differently” (Stone-Wiske in Graffam).
National Reading Panel, 2000. What four types of questioning were
mentioned on the Literacy Matters website? What do students need to know about
reading expository text? What is one things listed on LM that
teachers need to provide in vocabulary instruction?
Students need requisite skills for reading a variety of materials. What are the two most important?
According to Sousa in Putting…, “[L]ecture continues to be the most prevalent teaching mode in secondary and higher education, despite overwhelming evidence that it produces the lowest degree of retention for most learners” (p. 8).
“To process and learn new content knowledge, students must be able to connect the new learning with information already in their backgrounds, information stored in memory” (p. 8).
On p. 10, “Secondary students should read textbooks”, and “A multitext approach should be used in the content areas.”
