For critical thinking, it recommends asking open-ended questions, having students re-read materials and prove their answers, doing group quizzes, in-class debates, and starting with lower-level questions. The overall strategies are meant to engage students and make learning an active process that develops both creativity and critical thinking.
Marlborough edventure keynote 1 Feb 2016
This document discusses future focused education and the need to transform education systems to prepare students for an uncertain future. It argues that education must shift from an industrial, compliance-based model to focus on developing skills like critical thinking, problem solving, creativity and collaboration. Schools need more flexible structures that allow for innovation, collaboration between educators, and input from students and communities. The focus should be on designing the future rather than looking back, and allowing new practices to emerge from the bottom up through an open, adaptive culture of innovation.
Core skills (communication) and the science
The document discusses how communication skills are taught to science students at Stevenson College in Edinburgh, Scotland. It outlines that SUSSOL is used to teach communication skills applied to sustainable solutions. The five core skills taught are communication, numeracy, ICT, problem solving, and working with others. For science students, communication skills like reading, writing, speaking, and listening are focused on science topics. A collaborative approach is taken between teachers, lecturers, librarians, and students to integrate these skills into the science curriculum through activities such as summarizing articles, report writing, presentations, and discussions. Examples of student work and teaching materials are provided.

This is an overview of the Visible Thinking approach developed by Project Zero at Harvard University. It includes the main features of the theory and photos and videos of class observations I conducted at the BIltmore School in Florida, US.
Scaffolding
Scaffolding refers to techniques teachers use to support students during learning. It breaks learning down into chunks and provides tools or structures for each chunk. Some examples of scaffolding strategies include:
1) Showing students examples and modeling thought processes before having them work independently.
2) Tapping into students' prior knowledge by discussing their experiences with the topic.
3) Giving students time to think before answering questions rather than rushing responses.
The document then provides more details on various scaffolding strategies teachers can use to support language learning for high school students.
Evidence-based teaching strategies in ELT
The document discusses various learning strategies and their effectiveness based on educational research. It begins by listing strategies that teachers and learners have used, and rates their usefulness based on research. Highly useful strategies include practice testing, distributed practice, and interleaved practice. Moderately useful strategies are elaborative interrogation and self-explanation. Less useful strategies are highlighting, summarizing, visualizing, mnemonics, and re-reading. The document emphasizes that prior knowledge is the most important factor for learning and provides examples of how teachers can activate students' prior knowledge in language learning.

Delivered via email to students within the "Preparing for Class 2" email that would set out 4 readings (each student reading only one in preparation for a jigsaw activity) and 3 videos to review for the coming week. A final slide would be added for the particular class to link to the week's Active Reading Assignment (sometimes reflective responding, sometimes application responding, sometimes both).
Hansens Interactive Bulletin Boards CAST 2007
The document discusses interactive bulletin boards and their benefits for students and teachers. Interactive boards have a hands-on component where students can facilitate their own learning. They allow for peer tutoring and practice in a non-threatening environment. This benefits students by keeping them engaged, exposing them to different problem-solving strategies, and improving retention of knowledge. Teachers also benefit from interactive boards as a communication tool that can integrate subjects and keep students occupied during free time. The document provides tips for setting up interactive boards and reinforcing classroom concepts.
Visible thinking presentation
Visible Thinking is an approach to integrating the development of students' thinking skills with content learning across subjects. It uses practices like Thinking Routines, which are short strategies to extend and deepen students' thinking, and Thinking Ideals, which are concepts that propel thinking. The goals are to cultivate students' thinking dispositions and abilities, deepen understanding of content, increase motivation for learning, and shift the classroom culture to a community of engaged thinkers.
Visible thinking 1
Visible Thinking is an approach developed by Project Zero at Harvard to make students' thinking visible. It uses thinking routines - short sets of questions - and documentation of student discussions to deepen understanding of topics. The six key principles are: 1) Thinking leads to learning; 2) Good thinking requires curiosity and open-mindedness, not just skills; 3) Thinking is social; 4) Making thinking visible through writing and discussion aids reflection; 5) Classroom culture shapes learning; 6) Schools should cultivate teacher thinking. The Think-Puzzle-Explore routine is used to make thinking visible by having students identify what they think and puzzling questions about a topic.
Inquiry-Based Learning
This document discusses inquiry-based learning, which involves students gathering information by asking questions to expand their knowledge. It is used to engage students and encourage independent learning compared to traditional fact-based teaching. The importance of inquiry-based learning is that it develops students' questioning, research, communication, problem-solving and collaboration skills. Applying inquiry-based learning in class involves leading discussions around student questions and debates without interrupting to encourage critical thinking.
Edpc605 chapter 1 2
The document provides information on various lesson design frameworks including Universal Design for Learning (UDL), Understanding by Design (UbD), and Differentiated Instruction (DI). It then focuses on explaining UDL in more detail. UDL is a framework that aims to remove barriers to learning by providing multiple means of representation, expression, and engagement. The document outlines the three principles of UDL and provides resources from CAST on the approach. It also briefly describes DI and UbD, positioning them all as complementary frameworks to promote inclusive and effective lesson design.
ULearn17 deep learning
This document discusses deep learning and how it differs from shallow or surface learning. Deep learning involves actively searching for meaning, relating new ideas to existing knowledge, and relating concepts to real-world experience. In contrast, shallow learning focuses on memorizing facts without integration. The document also discusses how deep learning requires developing foundational skills like literacy and numeracy while also building skills like problem solving, collaboration, and critical thinking. It emphasizes developing new pedagogies using technology to make learning irresistibly engaging and centered around real-world problems.
Scaffolding for student ownership and independence pbl
This document discusses strategies for scaffolding lessons to promote student independence. It describes showing examples, tapping prior knowledge, giving think time and discussion opportunities, pre-teaching vocabulary, using visual aids, and pausing to ask and review questions. The goal of scaffolding is to meet students at their level and help them develop skills and understanding to work more independently.
Tackling the myths of progress
1. The document discusses the myth of inevitable and sustained progress in learning.
2. It examines different definitions of learning and progress, noting that learning takes time and is not fully observable in classroom activities.
3. Key concepts discussed include threshold concepts, which involve transformative, troublesome understanding, and overlapping waves theory, which proposes students think about concepts in varied ways that compete over time.
Nag cpresentation
The document describes a game called "Let's Race Around the World" that can be used as a self-directed learning project. The game uses reading, writing, math, and research to teach students about world geography and cultures. It incorporates various academic areas and can be teacher- or student-driven. Teachers should provide clear expectations and ensure students understand the math and writing components while allowing flexibility. The game fosters global awareness, independent research, and deep discussion when used in a gifted and talented learning environment.
Visible thinking routines and ATL in ibdp
Students in a 5th grade class were introduced to arthropods like spiders and asked about their initial thoughts. The students came up with observations like them being creepy or hairy. They then generated questions about how arthropods move or produce webs. The teacher used a thinking routine called "think-puzzle-explore" to have students share what they think, identify questions, and explore topics that may not seem complex. Visible thinking involves making thinking visible through speaking, writing or drawing so students can direct and improve their thoughts. It emphasizes documenting thinking for later reflection.
Making thinking and learning visible
This document discusses making thinking and learning visible through mind mapping. It explains that mind maps allow students to analyze connections, become better thinkers, and learn meaningfully. Several mind mapping techniques are described, including DOM, Book, and Literal methods. The document also discusses how mind maps can benefit teachers in understanding what students know and helping students who don't understand. Overall, the document promotes mind mapping as a tool to make schema and thinking more explicit and improve learning.
Critical Thinking
The document discusses critical thinking, including definitions of critical thinking and what it is not. It describes the characteristics of a critical thinker and outlines the methodology of critical thinking, which involves using inductive and deductive reasoning, analyzing information, evaluating different perspectives, synthesizing arguments, interpreting conclusions, reflecting on learning, and making judgments. It also provides a template for problem solving and lists universal intellectual standards for evaluating information.
Visible Thinking - Project Zero
Visible Thinking is a broad and flexible framework for enriching workplace learning in the content areas and fostering team members’ intellectual development at the same time.
The central idea of Visible Thinking is very simple: making thinking visible.
In this presentation, Abhishek tries to explore how Visible Thinking can be applied in an organisation.
Strategies to develop creativity and critical thinking
The document discusses strategies for developing creativity and critical thinking in students. It begins by quoting experts emphasizing the importance of creativity and critical thinking. It then explores common misconceptions about the differences between creativity and critical thinking. While they are often seen as opposing skills, the document argues they are both essential. It provides five strategies each for developing creativity and critical thinking in students. The strategies include creating an open and safe environment, modeling the desired behaviors, allowing time and materials for exploration, asking open-ended questions, and facilitating questioning and justification of conclusions.
MI Theory and Adult Learning
The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and how it relates to adult learning. It describes Gardner's theory that individuals possess different combinations of intelligences including linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. As adults age, their abilities in various intelligences may decline due to poorer vision, hearing, memory, and physical limitations. This makes acquiring new knowledge and skills more difficult compared to younger adults.
Differentiated Instruction in Online Environments
by Gail Taylor
This forum will explore differentiated instruction (DI) in online environments. DI is a flexible, holistic approach to teaching and student learning that recognizes all students are not alike in terms of their learning styles and/or types of intelligences, among other related concepts. We will be exploring ways to make assessments of student learning styles and multiple intelligences as a way to identify teaching best practices for diverse groups of students in online environments.

We will be exploring ways to make assessments of student learning styles and multiple intelligences as a way to identify teaching best practices for diverse groups of students in online environments.
Multiple intelligence
Howard Gardner proposed the theory of multiple intelligences, which suggests that there are nine different types of intelligence rather than just a single general intelligence. The nine intelligences are visual/spatial, verbal/linguistic, logical/mathematical, bodily/kinesthetic, musical/rhythmic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalist, and existential. Gardner's theory suggests that each person possesses combinations of these intelligences in different strengths and that accounting for individuals' varied intellectual profiles could improve education.
Book Review_SoEachMayLearn
This document summarizes key aspects of the book "So Each May Learn: Integrating Learning Styles and Multiple Intelligences" by Harvey F. Silver, Richard W. Strong, and Matthew J. Perini. It discusses how the authors integrate Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences with learning styles based on perception and judgment. The book provides tools and examples for teachers to design instruction that accommodates different intelligences and styles.
Rails: has_many vs has_one
The document discusses the difference between using has_many and has_one associations in Rails. With has_many, an app object can have multiple server objects associated with it, but with has_one, assigning a server object directly to app.server fails and one must use set_server_target to properly assign a single associated server object.
Learning Effectively Efficiently
This document discusses different learning styles, intelligences, and strategies. It introduces learning styles inventories that can assess whether someone is an active or reflective, sensing or intuitive, visual or verbal, and sequential or global learner. It also discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and provides resources for learning about your strengths. Finally, it outlines various reading, listening, and learning strategies like KWL charts, scanning, predicting, note-taking, and journaling to improve comprehension.
Multiple intelligence and English Language Teaching
The document discusses Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and how technology can support the different intelligences. It describes the seven intelligences - linguistic, logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Integrating multiple intelligences and technology in the classroom has positive effects such as motivating students and allowing them to learn in ways that align with their strengths. Reference materials are also provided.
Multiple Intelligences Presentation For Parents
This document introduces the theory of multiple intelligences and discusses eight different types of intelligences: kinesthetic, interpersonal, verbal-linguistic, naturalistic, intrapersonal, musical, visual-spatial, and logical-mathematical. For each intelligence, it provides examples of characteristics and learning strategies that can help tap into a child's strengths based on their dominant intelligences. The goal is to help teachers and parents understand how to best support children's learning and overcome obstacles.
Differentiated Learning
Differentiated instruction is a philosophy that recognizes student diversity and provides different avenues for students to acquire content, process ideas, and produce work based on their interests, learning profiles, and readiness levels. The teacher focuses on individual student needs and uses flexible grouping, ongoing assessment, and multiple materials to challenge all students at their appropriate level. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, differentiated instruction tailors learning to each student's needs.
Teaching strategies - Pedagogy
This document discusses several concepts related to teaching strategies and education, including:
- Bloom's Taxonomy, which can be used to create objectives for science standards.
- Theories about intelligence, moving from a fixed view to one recognizing multiple types of intelligence.
- Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, which identifies 8 types of intelligence.
- Differences between left and right brain functions.
- The philosophy of multicultural education, which advocates placing students' experiences at the center and addressing multiple ways of thinking in a familiar context. It also demands a culturally competent school staff from diverse backgrounds.

This document discusses principles and theories of learning, including social constructivism, multiple intelligences, and brain-based learning. It provides details on social constructivism, outlining its key assumptions that knowledge is socially constructed through human interaction and culture, and learning is a social activity. The document also summarizes Lev Vygotsky, Jean Piaget, and Jerome Bruner's contributions to social constructivism. It describes perspectives on facilitating social constructivist learning and instructional models based on this perspective, emphasizing collaboration. The theory of multiple intelligences identifying eight types of intelligence is overviewed.
Aplication of multiple intelligence theory in teaching and
This document discusses applying Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences to teaching English as a second language. It explains that all people possess different combinations of the nine intelligences and that lessons should be designed based on students' intelligence profiles. Specific examples are provided for activities targeting each intelligence, such as keeping a diary for linguistic intelligence or doing puzzles for logical-mathematical intelligence, that could be incorporated into English lessons.

Multiple Intelligence and Learning Styles
Howard Gardner developed the theory of multiple intelligences which posits that intelligence is not a single entity but rather composed of different capacities. The multiple intelligences test he created helps identify students' preferred learning styles and strengths by assessing their different intelligences such as linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, and more. Developing students through their strengths makes learning more effective and enjoyable as opposed to focusing on their weaknesses.

Light Scattering: Fundamentals (Old Version)
Static and dynamic light scattering have evolved into powerful methods to
investigate a variety of soft and biological matter systems with structures
on the nanometer to micrometer scale. They can provide detailed
quantitative information on the shape, internal structure, size, and
polydispersity of the system as well as interparticle interactions.
I will present their fundamentals from a physics and instrumental point of
view and also comment on experimental data analysis. The opportunities
they offer will be discussed as well as their limits. This will be illustrated
by a selection of examples, ranging from colloidal suspensions, detergent
and polymer solutions to proteins and include topics like contrast and
absolute intensity, determination of molar mass, polydispersity and
interparticle interactions.

Multiple intelligences presentation
This document provides information about Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and its implications for classroom teaching. It defines intelligence and discusses Gardner's view that there are at least nine distinct intelligences rather than just a single general intelligence. These include linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalist intelligences. The document also addresses criticisms of the theory, implications for teaching different learning styles, and examples of people who demonstrate each type of intelligence.
Howard Gardner
Howard Gardner is an American psychologist who developed the theory of multiple intelligences. The theory posits that intelligence is not a single general ability but rather consists of at least eight relatively independent faculties or intelligences. Gardner identified eight intelligences: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. Gardner's theory challenged the traditional view that intelligence is a single general ability and that it can be adequately assessed by paper-and-pencil tests. His work has had significant influence on educational practices and theories of learning.
