Teacher Behaviors that Support ‘Thinking’ • MODELING • Emulating others is a basic way of learning. • Model what you expect. Do not be a “do as I say, not as I do” educator. • STRUCTURING • Clear expectations • Thinking happens throughout the school day, across content areas, and over extended periods of time. • Opportunities for interaction • Address all learning styles • QUESTIONING • Higher-level questioning • Learners must be presented with problems and questions, the answers to which are not apparent. • RESPONDING • Wait time • Accepting without judgment • Clarify when you don’t understand • Academic Feedback • Empathizing
Development Objective: • Teachers will connect thinking and problem solving and develop a lesson incorporating both the process and the product. TASK: Bring back three student samples of the student product. Questions to ask yourself during development time: • When are you going to implement this in your class? • What will this problem solving process look like in your class? • Specifics: What questions will you use? How can you build this in your lesson plan? Develop the thinking script and product model.
Apply • Closure: • Share with a non-content partner how you will implement problem solving into your lessons and classroom this week.
