The document discusses the Question-Answer Relationship (QAR) strategy for improving reading comprehension. QAR teaches students that questions can be categorized into four types based on where the answer is found: Right There, Think and Search, Author and You, and On Your Own. It provides examples of question types and explains how to use QAR before, during, and after reading to help students learn how to approach different kinds of questions. The document recommends long-term instruction and practice with QAR to help students develop stronger comprehension skills.
QAR (Question Answer Relationship) is a reading comprehension strategy that is good for standardised test such as NAPLAN. This presentation explains the strategy and its benefits for students.
This presentation introduces young readers to several important text structures. Through examples, pictures, and practice, students will learn how to identify and use the text structures of sequence, description, compare and contrast, cause and effect, and problem and solution.

CLASSIFYING RESEARCH
Objective: Following completion of this course, the student will understand the general classification schema for research.
There are several ways to categorize different kinds of research. Please view the schematic that you’ll find in the section on quantitative research. One of the most fundamental is basic versus applied. By far, the preponderance of educational research is applied. We generally think of basic research as it more frequently occurs in the sciences. Examining the theoretical foundations of the beginning of the universe, trying to validate Darwin’s Theory of Evolution,

and other such projects are certainly worthy endeavors, leading to simple expansion of knowledge rather than of some immediately applied benefit. However, in education, we’re more interested and involved in solving problems. Just how much does a certain math software package do in terms of facilitating mastery of multiplication and division? Is mainstreaming effective in countering self-image problems of special education students? Will mandatory retention of third-graders who cannot read affect eventual graduation rates? These are examples of applied research, answers to which allow us to immediately make improvements in some aspect of education.
Research can be classified as either quantitative or qualitative. You will use both in the research project to be completed in this class. The former, quantitative, requires the use of statistics for analysis of data. Look at the schematic on the preceding page and locate descriptive under the quantitative heading. You will design and carry out a descriptive pilot studythis semester; it will require some basic statistical analysis skills which you master in a subsequent assignment. Look at the arrow on the schematic on page 50. That is what you’ll be doing, a combination quantitative and qualitative study..
Qualitative research does not require the use of statistics. It is sometimes termed ethnographic research, coming from long-time use by anthropologists and relies upon such as observation of behaviors in a natural setting, interpretation of documents or records, interviews, and open-ended questions used in surveys. Details on techniques of qualitative analysis and writing will be addressed later in this text.

Compare and Contrast Essay AssignmentA Compare and Contrast essaLynellBull52
Compare and Contrast Essay Assignment
A Compare and Contrast essay explores the similarities and differences between two or more items, ideas, topics, trends, works, etc. When we compare, we point out the similarities between two items, and when we contrast, we show their differences. In fact, Compare and Contrast is one of the main rhetorical strategies that writers use to develop ideas and support their arguments.
For this assignment, you will write a Compare and Contrast essay in which you will
explore the similarities and differences between two of the following topics:
1. Generation Z vs. Millennials
2. Generation Z vs. Generation X
3. How Generation Z is perceived vs How Generation Z really is according to you
The American Family Then and Now
1. Compare and Contrast the way and times in which you were raised to that of children today. Do you think that your parent’s were more strict or concerned than today’s parents? Do you think that kids today expect too much? Provide specific examples as to how kids today are being raised similarly and differently than you.
2. How has the role of the woman changed in the family? Is this change good for families? How has the emergence of women in the workforce and their becoming "bread winners" affected the family?
3. As I look at the male figures in my own family, I can see that the role of the male has changed in two generations. My grandfather, for example, has never changed a diaper or cooked a meal in fifty-two years of marriage, yet I do these two things often. In your own family, how has the role of your gender changed in the last two generations. While the changes are probably many, there are still some things that have probably stayed the same. In considering this topic, be sure to include some of the things that are similar regarding the role of your gender in your family structure.
4. More and more couples are choosing not to be married. How and why is this different from the past? Why are people not getting married? How does the affect the family?
5. Non-traditional families are becoming the new normal in the United States. Discuss and compare the traditional family and non-traditional families.
Your purpose for this essay will be to simply inform your audience on their similarities and differences, on the relative merits of the items discussed, and establish the significance of this comparison and contrast. This last point will be expressed in the thesis of your essay which will also strengthen your essay and clarify its purpose.
Process
The first thing you want to do is brainstorm everything you know about each topic, research both of them, go back and look for connections that show similarities and differences, and then develop your thesis. Remember to select only those aspects that are explicitly comparable or contrastable. After you have formulated your thesis statement, established your basis of comparison, and selected your points for discussion, you are ready to organ ...

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

9. Right There “ Right There” questions require you to go back to the text and find the correct information to answer the question. These are sometimes called literal questions because the correct answer can be found in one place in the text. “ Right There” questions sometimes include the words, “According to the text…” “How many…” “Who is…” “Where is…” “What is…”
10.
11. Think and Search “ Think and Search” questions usually require you to think about how ideas or information in the text are related. You will need to look back at the text, find the information that the question refers to, and then think about how the information or ideas fit together. The information may be in multiple places in the text. “ Think and Search” questions sometimes include the words, “ The main idea of the passage…” “What caused…” “Compare/contrast…”
12.
13. Author and You “ Author and You” questions require you to use ideas and information that are not stated directly in the text to answer the question. These questions require you to think about what you have read and formulate your own ideas or opinions. “ Author and You” questions sometimes include the words, “The author implies…” “The passage suggests…” “The speaker’s attitude..,”
14.
15. On Your Own “ On Your Own” questions can be answered using your background knowledge on a topic. This type of question is the most infrequent question on tests of reading comprehension because it does not require you to refer to the text. “ On Your Own” questions sometimes include the words, “In your opinion…” Based on your experience…” “Think about someone or something you know…”
28. “ The researchers recommended that each strategy be taught with singular focus, over a long period of time, to students from kindergarten through twelfth grade and beyond, and that teachers model and students practice the strategies with a variety of texts. If teachers focused their attention on a strategy, beginning with a great deal of modeling and gradually releasing responsibility (Gallagher and Pearson, 1983) to the children to practice it independently, the researchers believed students could actually be taught to think differently as they read.” From Mosaic of Thought by Ellin Keene THE FIRST STEP TO SUCCESSFUL COMPREHENSION QAR
