This document provides examples of instructional strategies that teachers can use to actively engage students and activate their prior knowledge at the beginning of a lesson. Some of the strategies described include carousel brainstorming, where students rotate in groups to different stations to discuss topics; think-pair-share, where students think individually, discuss in pairs, and share with the class; and anticipation/reaction guides, where students predict their level of agreement with statements before and after a lesson. The strategies are intended to draw out students' existing knowledge and experiences to prime them for new learning.
Whole brain teaching is a new "radical" idea to some, however it is nothing more than tried and true teaching practices, combined into a new approach. Whole brain teaching combines direct instruction, , sharing and immediate feedback to become a new style of teaching. Whole brain teaching surmounts to seven steps that a teacher incorporates into their everyday classroom.

Active learning is a form of learning in which teaching strives to involve students in the learning process more directly than in other methods
The term active learning "was introduced by the English scholar R W Revans (1907–2003).
Active learning is a process whereby students engage in activities, such as reading, writing, discussion, or problem solving that promote analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of class content.
Collaborative learning approach is an educational approach to teaching and learning that involves groups of learners working together to solve a problem, complete a task, or create a product.
Constructivist approach of learning mathematics thiyaguThiyagu K
Constructivist theories are about 'how one comes to know'. Today’s constructing knowledge is tomorrows prior knowledge to construct another knowledge i.e. learners constructing knowledge are provisional. There are five basic tenets (previous knowledge, communicating language, active participation, accepted views and knowledge construction) in implication in constructivist learning. Constructivist teaching approach is the challenging one to teaching mathematics. No particular constructivist teaching approach is available to teach mathematics, here I have discussed some methods like interactive teaching approach, problem centred teaching approach may be the best approach in constructivism theory and the role of teacher is some different than other theory.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

14. PURPOSE:
To activate students’ prior
knowledge of a topic or
topics through movement
and conversation
Carousel brainstorming
15. DESCRIPTION:
Students will rotate around the classroom in
small groups, stopping at various stations for a
designated amount of time. While at each
station, students will activate their prior
knowledge of different topics or different
aspects of a single topic through conversation
with peers. Ideas shared will be posted at each
station for all groups to read. Through
movement and conversation, prior knowledge
will be activated, providing scaffolding for new
information to be learned in proceeding lesson
activity.
16. PROCEDURE:
1. Generate X number of questions
for your topic of study and write
each question on a separate piece
of poster board or chart paper.
(Note: The number of questions should
reflect the number of groups you
intend to use during this activity.) Post
question sheets around your classroom.
17. 2. Divide your students into
groups of 5 or less. For
example, in a classroom of 30
students, you would divide
your class into 6 groups of
five that will rotate around
the room during this activity.
18. 3. Direct each group to stand in
front of a home-base question
station. Give each group a
colored marker for writing
their ideas at the question
stations. It is advisable to use
a different color for tracking
each group.
19. 4. Inform groups that they will have X
number of minutes to brainstorm and
write ideas at each question station.
Usually 2-3 minutes is sufficient. When
time is called, the groups will rotate to
the next station in clockwise order.
Numbering the stations will make this
easy for students to track. Group 1
would rotate to question station 2;
group 2 would rotate to question
station 3 and so on.
20. 5. Using a stopwatch or other
timer, begin the group
rotation. Continue until each
group reaches their last
question station.
6. Before leaving the final station,
have each group select the top
3 ideas from their station to
share with the entire class.
21. PURPOSE:
To activate prior knowledge
and focus student learning
on the topic about to be
addressed.
Two minute talks
22. DESCRIPTION:
Students will share with a partner by
brainstorming everything they
already know (prior knowledge)
about a skill, topic, or concept. In
doing so, they are establishing a
foundation of knowledge in
preparation for learning new
information about the skill, topic, or
concept.
23. PROCEDURE:
1. Group students into pairs.
2. Inform students that they will each be
talking about topic X for two minutes.
They will need to select which student
will begin first. An easy way to do this
is to say something like: “Find out
whose birthday comes first in the
calendar year.” Then tell students
that, “That person gets to go second!”
24. 3. Using a stopwatch or other timing
device, tell students to begin talking.
4. At two minutes, instruct students to
switch. At this point, the other
partner begins talking. It is okay for
the second person to repeat some of
the things the first person said.
However, they are encouraged to try
and think of new information to
share.
25. 5. Have a few groups share
some of their responses
with the entire class when
the activity is done.
27. DESCRIPTION:
Students will have individual time
to think about a question related to
the topic of study. They will then
pair up with a partner to share their
thoughts. Finally, the pairs will
select one major idea to share with
the entire class.
28. PROCEDURE:
1. Generate a higher-level question
related to the topic you are about to
study.
2. Group students into pairs.
3. Pass out a Think-Pair-Share worksheet
to each student.
4. Give students 5 minutes to write
down their individual thoughts in the
“Think” section of the worksheet.
29. 5. Then, in pairs, have groups share
their individual thoughts. Pairs
should summarize their common
thoughts in the “Pair” section of
their worksheet.
6. Finally, pairs choose one major
idea to share with the entire class.
This should be written in the
“Share” section of their
worksheet.
31. DESCRIPTION:
Students will activate prior knowledge
by creating a graphic representation of a
topic before the lesson. After engaging
in learning about that topic, students
will re-evaluate their prior knowledge by
drawing a second depiction of their
topic. They will then summarize what
the different drawing say to them about
what they learned.
32. PROCEDURE:
1. Ask students to close their eyes and think
about topic X. using the Talking Drawings
worksheet, have students draw a picture
what they saw while they were thinking
about topic X.
2. Teach cognitive portion of your lesson.
3. At the end of the lesson, ask students to
elaborate upon their initial drawing by
creating a new drawing that incorporates
what they learned about topic X during the
lesson.
33. 4. Have students share their before and
after drawings with a partner.
Students should discuss the
differences between the two
depictions of topic X.
5. Finally, have students respond in
writing at the bottom of their Talking
Drawings worksheet. What do the two
drawings tell them about what they
learned during the lesson?
35. DESCRIPTION:
Possible Sentences takes what students
know of a topic and their familiarity
with the English language sentence
structure to activate prior knowledge
of a topic. After new information is
introduced through the use of
cognitive teaching strategies, possible
sentences are re-evaluated for
accuracy.
36. PROCEDURE:
1. Generate a list of 10 words related to
your lesson. These words should
represent concepts that are both
familiar and unfamiliar to students.
2. Have students create 5 possible
sentences by using two words in
each sentence until all words are
gone.
3. Teach your lesson on the topic.
37. 4. After the main instruction is over, have
students go back and evaluate the
accuracy of their possible sentences by
placing + (for correct), - (for incorrect),
or a ? (for cannot determine) beside
each sentence.
5. For sentences marked incorrect,
students should write a corrected
sentence. Sentences whose accuracy
cannot be determined can be
researched by utilizing outside
resources.
39. DESCRIPTION:
Students will make predictions
based upon prior knowledge
and evaluate those
predictions after exposure to
new information.
40. PROCEDURE:
1. Generate a list of 8-10
statements related to your
topic of study. Place these
on an Anticipation/Reaction
Guide.
2. Pass out a copy of your
guide to each student.
41. 3. Prior to introducing new
information, engage students
by having them write whether
or not they AGREE or
DISAGREE with the
statements listed on the
guide.
4. Teach your lesson content.
42. 5. After the new content has been
taught, have students react to
the new information by
responding again on the
statements on the
Anticipation/Reaction Guide.
6. Discuss why their before and
after answers are different. What
did students learn that caused
them to change their answers?
