Three key points are discussed in the document: 1. HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) is an education reform concept based on learning taxonomies that focuses on more sophisticated thinking skills. 2. Pushing students towards higher-order thinking in the classroom has enormous benefits, as information processed at higher levels is remembered longer and more clearly than lower-level memorization. Explanations and inferences are retained better than rote facts. 3. Students who are behind need to make academic gains to have opportunities, so teachers should provide opportunities for students to lead, engage in, and be motivated towards higher-order thinking.

Defining Comprehension Strategies and Instructional Strategies
The document discusses comprehension strategies and instructional strategies to support intermediate literacy learners. It defines comprehension strategies as sets of steps good readers use to understand text, such as monitoring comprehension, metacognition, using graphic organizers, answering questions, and summarizing. Instructional strategies are teaching methods that engage students, such as think-aloud and think-pair-share strategies. The document also summarizes a ReadWriteThink lesson that uses metacognition and character trading cards to teach the book Bridge to Terabithia.
Abstract Lit Review
This section presents the theoretical framework and findings on critical thinking in education. It addresses the importance of critical thinking instruction in the classroom. Teachers need to understand critical thinking in order to facilitate lessons that develop students' thinking skills. Critical thinking involves cognitive skills like interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, and self-regulation. It is an intellectually disciplined process of using reasoning to develop and support arguments. It is also collaborative in nature and considers multiple perspectives.

Effectiveness of Using Stop, Think and Talk Activities on the Performance of...Research Journal of Education
The study was carried out to determine the effect of stop, think and talk activities on the performance of students in reading comprehension in junior secondary schools in Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja. The study was carried out using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest research design. The target population of the study comprised of 16,925 JSII students. A sample size of 100 JSII students from two secondary schools in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, were purposely sampled in the study. Sixty five (65) students from Government Junior Secondary School, Apo and thirty five (35) from Government Junior Secondary School, Garki were used for the study. Both groups of students were taught for six (6) weeks. Government Junior Secondary School, Apo was assigned as the experimental group while Government Junior Secondary School, Garki was assigned as the control school. Students were pre-tested to establish their homogeneity before the commencement of the treatment. They were taught for six (6) weeks and were tested using retelling test as an instrument. Data collected from students’ test scores was analysed using mean and standard deviation, while t-test was used to test the formulated null hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. Findings of the study revealed that “stop, think and talk” activities had significant effect on students’ performance in reading comprehension. In fact, the experimental group which was exposed to stop, think and talk activities had better understanding of the reading comprehension passages given to them. The result further revealed that students in experimental group were more active, responsive and paid more attention to details concerning the main ideas in the passages read. Based on the findings, it was recommended that teachers should be encouraged to use “stop, think and talk” activities in reading comprehension lessons. Such activities should be provided before, during and after every reading comprehension passage to enhance and facilitate students’ reading abilities. Curriculum planners should provide activities that would encourage students to “stop, think and talk” to make reading comprehension lesson more purposeful and meaningful.Comprehension
Comprehension involves the ability to understand what is read through either oral or silent reading. There are four levels of comprehension: literal, interpretative, critical, and application. The literal level focuses on identifying important information explicitly stated. The interpretative level requires making inferences about what is implied. The critical level involves making judgments about the validity or worth of what is read. The application level combines understandings from the lower levels to develop new ideas and insights.

This document discusses strategies for developing student vocabulary and concepts. It describes three types of vocabulary: general, specialized, and technical. Graphic organizers can help students understand relationships between concepts and words. Activating prior knowledge through activities like word walls and brainstorming helps students learn new vocabulary. Providing multiple opportunities for students to engage with words through reading, writing, speaking and listening helps extend their understanding of concepts and vocabulary.
Literate Environment Analysis
This document summarizes the key components of creating an effective literate environment: 1) Getting to know learners cognitively through reading assessments and non-cognitively through attitude surveys; 2) Selecting appropriate texts that engage students at their level through a variety of genres; 3) Engaging students interactively through strategies like read alouds, guided reading, and interactive activities; 4) Incorporating critical and response perspectives where students analyze texts and connect on a personal level. The presentation emphasizes understanding individual students, exposing them to diverse texts, and involving them through strategic, metacognitive, critical and response-based instruction.
Building comprehension strategies with students
The document provides an overview of strategies for building reading comprehension with students. It discusses barriers to comprehension such as decoding issues and dependence on teachers. It also outlines key comprehension strategies like predicting, clarifying, making inferences, summarizing, questioning, visualizing and self-monitoring. The document provides resources for teaching each strategy and emphasizes using a scaffolded approach of modeling, guided practice and independent application.
Chapter 14 Narrative
Narrative reading comprehension instruction typically begins with narrative texts like fables and fairy tales because children are familiar with story structures at an early age. Teachers model comprehension strategies like asking questions, making predictions, visualizing, summarizing, and discussing stories in a group. As students work on narrative texts, teachers guide them to connect the stories to their own lives and world knowledge. Effective comprehension instruction of narrative texts should begin as early as students start reading and continue through high school, with assessments used to diagnose needs and guide further instruction.

Comprehension Explored
Literacy involves explicitly teaching comprehension strategies to students. Teachers should model, explain, and have students practice comprehension strategies with support. They should continue using strategies independently over multiple school years. Good readers use strategies like activating prior knowledge, making connections, questioning, visualizing, inferring, summarizing, evaluating, and synthesizing. Strategies work best when combined and include opportunities for reading, comprehension instruction, peer learning, and discussion. Specific strategies like annolighting and three-level guides provide scaffolds to help students interact with texts at a literal, interpretive, and applied level.

This document discusses disciplinary literacies and content area literacy. It begins by defining disciplinary literacies as a form of academic literacy that involves learning the conventions and language used within a particular discipline. It discusses how students' understanding in a discipline, called "envisionments", develop over time through experiences like reading texts and discussions. The document provides examples of how envisionments are built in classrooms through inquiry-based learning and engaging with the practices of a discipline. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of teaching literacy through critical thinking and inquiry within discipline-focused instruction.
PD of Collaborative Strategic Reading
This document describes the Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) strategy for improving reading comprehension. CSR is a 4-stage process: 1) Before reading involves previewing the text to build background knowledge and make predictions. 2) During reading has students identify what they understand ("clicks") and don't understand ("clunks"), using strategies to address clunks. 3) Students work to get the main idea of each paragraph and the overall text. 4) After reading, students generate and answer questions about the text. The document outlines the specific goals and activities within each stage of CSR.
The Effects of Fluency on Reading Comprehension
This research proposal aims to study the relationship between reading fluency and comprehension. It hypothesizes that a balanced focus on both fluency and comprehension strategies, rather than emphasizing one over the other, could improve student reading ability. The study will be conducted with 12th grade students in Puerto Rico and evaluate the impact of different reading strategies on fluency and comprehension levels over one school year. The results are expected to show a correlation between fluency and comprehension, suggesting the need for a balanced reading curriculum. Further research will also be recommended due to the limited scope of this initial study.
Comprehension: Expert Presentation for Reading Class by Jenny, Sara and Monica
Comprehension involves accurately understanding written text through decoding, making connections, and deep thinking. It is important for learning across subjects. Students begin comprehending in early elementary grades by building on decoding skills. Theories emphasize using prior knowledge (schemas) to understand new information. Teachers can help comprehension through strategies like questioning, summarizing, using graphic organizers, and reciprocal teaching where students take turns leading discussions.
Thinking reading lesson- evelyn s. dela cruz
The document describes the Dialogical-Thinking Reading Lesson (D-TRL) approach developed by Michelle Commeyras to engage students in critical thinking about stories through discussion; the D-TRL has two phases - a reading phase where a story is selected and a discussion phase where students evaluate different interpretations; the goal of D-TRL is for students to thoughtfully discuss what they believe about a story without the teacher leading the discussion.
Learning isms w/ Class notes
This document discusses three main perspectives (paradigms) on learning: behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism. Behaviorism emphasizes that learning is a change in behavior and that the environment shapes behavior through reinforcement. Cognitivism views learning as a mental process and focuses on what occurs in the brain, such as how information is organized into schemas. Constructivism posits that learning involves creating one's own understanding through making sense of experiences and that project-based and inquiry-based learning support this approach.
Strategies And Metacognitive Skills 2
The document discusses reading strategies and skills, defining strategies as conscious, deliberate actions used to achieve comprehension goals, while skills are automatic unconscious processes. It also covers metacognition, or thinking about one's own thinking, and the role of metacognition in reading, which involves planning, monitoring, and evaluating one's comprehension and strategy use. Effective reading instruction should teach students strategies through modeling, practice, and feedback to help them become independent strategic readers.
Dialogical-Thinking Reading Lesson
The document discusses the Dialogical-Thinking Reading Lesson (D-TRL) approach to teaching reading comprehension developed by Michelle Commeyras in 1991. The D-TRL has two phases: a reading phase where students read a story allowing different perspectives, and a discussion phase where students evaluate reasons and draw their own conclusions. The goal is for students to engage in thoughtful discussion as equal partners with the teacher.

Teaching approches
This document discusses different teaching approaches including cooperative learning, contextual learning, mastery learning, self-access learning, future studies, and constructivism. It provides definitions and key elements for each approach. Cooperative learning involves dividing students into small groups to complete activities and learn from each other. Contextual learning presents information relating to students' experiences to help them construct their own meaning. Mastery learning breaks content into units to ensure students master each topic before advancing. Self-access learning allows students to access materials independently based on their needs and skills. Future studies prepares students to be lifelong learners able to look ahead. Constructivism engages student curiosity to explore and investigate concepts.
Trend 3
This study investigated differences in academic performance between students from rural and urban environments in Ondo State, Nigeria. 240 students from 6 randomly selected schools participated. Results from questionnaires and statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in academic performance between the two groups. While some research has found rural students perform worse, this study adds to other evidence that rural students can achieve as well as urban students, challenging the assumption that rural schools are inherently inferior. The study concludes that rural residence alone does not disadvantage students' academic performance.

Discussion issues on TIMSS and PISA
TIMSS and PISA are international assessments that evaluate student achievement in mathematics, science, and reading. TIMSS focuses on mathematics and science achievement every 4 years and collects data from pupils, schools, and teachers. PISA assesses scientific, mathematical and reading literacy every 3 years and collects additional data on pupils and schools. Both studies provide insights to help countries improve education policies and compare performance internationally. Participating in these studies benefits Malaysia by showing their commitment to research that advances education globally and allows them to learn from higher performing countries.

8611unit3-211018031036.pdf
This document discusses strategies for promoting critical thinking in teaching. It advocates for cooperative and collaborative learning approaches over traditional lecture-based methods. Some key points:
- Cooperative learning is effective when students rely on each other through positive interdependence and individual accountability. Face-to-face interaction and collaborative skills are important.
- Classroom debates and discussions encourage independent and dynamic thought by having students critically analyze conflicting information. Different types of debates structure interaction.
- Both teacher and student questions are valuable for learning, with teachers aiming for deeper understanding and students seeking clarity. Formative and summative assessments evaluate individual and group work. Performance-based assessments clearly define scoring criteria.

This document discusses higher order thinking skills and Bloom's taxonomy. It defines higher order thinking as skills involving analysis, evaluation and synthesis which require different teaching methods than memorizing facts. Bloom's taxonomy categorizes questions and thinking skills from lower order skills like recalling information to higher order skills like analysis, evaluation and design. The document provides examples of how technology applications can be used for lower order skills like presentations or higher order skills like databases which allow analysis and problem solving. It argues education should focus more on developing students' higher order thinking abilities.

Bloom's taxonomy revised
The document discusses revisions that were made to Bloom's Taxonomy of Learning. The original taxonomy classified learning objectives into six levels from simple to complex. It was revised in 1999 to address criticisms and broaden its applicability. The revised version distinguishes between factual, procedural, conceptual, and metacognitive knowledge. It also changes the names of the categories from nouns to verbs to better reflect thinking as an active process. The revision emphasizes higher-order thinking and has been widely adopted to improve curriculum, instruction, and assessment.

Why teach higher higher order thinking skills
This document discusses the importance of teaching higher-order thinking skills in schools. It argues that while people can think spontaneously, explicitly teaching thinking can improve the quality and effectiveness of students' thinking. The document also notes that educational achievement and intelligence do not necessarily reflect one's ability to think critically and that most individuals need guidance to develop higher-order thinking. Finally, it states that thinking skills should be an integral part of the school curriculum and explicitly taught across subjects in order to prepare students for a rapidly changing world.

- 3. is a concept of education reform based on learning taxonomies.
- 5. HIGHER ORDER THINKING SKILL Three things happen to the speaker on the bus. What are they? The ‘incident’ referred to in the title of the poem is made up of two gestures and one word. What are they? Which kind of behavior do you think had the most powerful effect on the speaker? Justify your answer. If in the future, the speaker has a similar experience, how do you think he/she can overcome this obstacle?
- 9. Go from basic to sophisticated Elaborate and explain Teach concept mapping and graphic organizers Identify the problem Use collaborative strategic reading Make students your partners
- 11. Push toward higher-order thinking skills in the classroom because they have enormous benefits for students. The reasoning here is similar to the rationale for pushing knowledge into our long-term memory. First,information learned and processed through higher-order thinking processes is remembered longer and more clearly than information that is processed through lower-order, rote memorization. Consider forexample, the difference between memorizing a formula and explaining the derivation of the formula. Or, the difference between memorizing the definition of a new word and internalizing strategies for discerning the probable definition of the word from its context. Or, the difference between mere memorization of the multiplication tables and a deeper understanding that the multiplication tablesrepresent short cuts for addition. Or, the difference between reciting the events included in a historytextbook and drawing inferences from a number of historical documents. In each case, a student whohas the latter-type of understanding will carry that knowledge longer.
- 13. students need to make significant academic gains only to catch up with other students and have more life opportunities. One way to help students is to provide the opportunity to lead, engage, and motivate students toward higher-order thinking.
