About this title

Synopsis

This classroom-ready resource makes instructional models clear and relevant for readers by placing them within a standards-based and instructionally aligned process.

Instruction: A Models Approach closely links more than ten instructional models based on current research and evidence-based practice to the preparation of objectives, differentiation practices, and assessment options.

The text includes scenarios of the models in both elementary and secondary classrooms, lesson plans for both elementary and secondary classes in a variety of content areas, and detailed steps for implementing the model using evidence based instructional strategies. Attention is paid to when and how the models can be used in particular contexts with specific skills and knowledge.

From the Back Cover

What is the "models approach" to teaching? It is a method which enables readers to understand instruction as a field of study, not simply a collection of practices. Written in a style that is both concise and user-friendly, this book provides busy educators with the tools they need to enhance and improve the learning process.

This book provides a research-based, yet easily accessible discussion of the models of teaching using a user-friendly, step-by-step format. Practical examples and end-of-book case studies illustrate key points and are drawn from a variety of grade levels and classroom experiences. Each chapter covers one model, broken down into "Steps," followed by a summary, variations of the model, exercises, the research base, activities, and scenarios, offering a consistent, user-friendly chapter format. "Activities," and "Scenarios" provide hands-on application of each model. Educators, school administrators, and curriculum specialists.
