Marzano's Strategies
This past Thursday in class I learned about Robert Marzano and his 9 strategies that are in groups of 3.
- Setting objectives and providing feedback
- Reinforcing efforts and providing recognition
- Cooperative Learning
- Cues, questions, and advance organizers
- Nonlinguistic Representations
- Summarizing and note-taking
- Homework and practice
- Identifying similarities and differences
- Generating and testing hypotheses
Marzano stated that his strategies help students gain a deeper understanding of the materials they are learning in real world context rather than studying just to get the right answer for a test. Also Marzano has his strategies grouped into 3 subcategories, the first category, Creating an environment for learning, consist of the first 3 points, the second category, Helping students develop understanding, consist of points 3-6, and the 3rd category, Extend and apply knowledge, consist of the points 7-9. I think these points are very good strategies and can be applied to all grade levels.

Great blog post April! You broke down the groups very nice and it was easy for me to understand!
ReplyDeleteGreat Post April! They are all important, Setting Objectives and feedback reminds me of a foundation that provides a student with a direction for learning, how they are performing and how they can improve their performance. Grouping the 9 strategies: Foundation then Creating and Extend and apply the knowledge
ReplyDeleteI like that you mentioned how the 9 strategies are grouped into 3's. You did a great job on explaining each group category. I agree, that these strategies are helpful and can be applied to any grade. Love the picture. :)
