| Includes the newest research, links to current learning standards, and a variety of multicultural stories and resources that have validated the importance of storytelling in education. Literacy is more effectively taught when the language arts, such as reading, writing, speaking, listening, viewing, and visually representing, are seen as connected and equally important. Storytelling is one of the best ways to teach all of these literacy skills. When children engage in stories, they gain command over language and increase their ability to understand detail and how stories hang together. If students are better at telling stories, they become better at writing and reading them. |

| This course utilizes cutting-edge neuroscience research to guide teaching. The first third of the book describes neuroscience, brain anatomy, and physiology. The middle part of the book discusses how the brain, encodes, manipulates and stores information. This information-processing model provides a first look at implications of research for practice-why meaning is essential for attention, how emotion can enhance or impede learning, and how different types of rehearsal are necessary for different types of learning, practical classroom applications and brain-compatible teaching strategies. The last third shows how to use simulations, projects, problem-based learning, graphic organizers, music, rhyme and rhythm, writing, active engagement, and mnemonics. Each chapter provides examples using brief scenarios from actual classroom practice, from the lower elementary grades to high school. |

| This course explains why some boys struggle in school, and how educators can effectively intervene without jeopardizing the achievement of other, more successful learners of both genders. Drawing from large-scale studies, contemporary insights on social and learning-style factors, lesson plans, and anecdotes from real teachers, the course equips educators with a flexible and practical framework for addressing the needs of struggling male students. The course focuses on the following: replacing underachieving boys' negative attitudes about learning; reconnecting boys to school, learning, and believing in being a competent learner; rebuilding learning skills that lead to success in school and in life; and reducing the need for unproductive and distracting behaviors as a means of self-protection. The author provides solutions that focus on academic success, contribute to positive school experience, enhance competence and persistence, and arranging the classroom to enhance success. |

| This course takes an in-depth look at how poverty hurts children, families, and communities across the United States. It demonstrates how schools can improve the academic achievement and life readiness of economically disadvantaged students. Although chronic exposure to poverty can result in detrimental changes to the brain, the brain's very ability to adapt from experience means that poor children can also experience emotional, social, and academic success. A brain susceptible to adverse environmental effects is equally vulnerable to the positive effects of rich, balanced learning environments and caring relationships that build students' resilience, self-esteem, and character. The course defines poverty and how it affects students at school, and describes how to drive change at the macro (within schools and districts) and micro levels (inside a student's brain). Effective and proven strategies to replicate best practices, and engage resources to create change are also described. |

| This course follows up on the original Classroom Instruction that Works by Robert Marzano, et al. It follows on the decade of research and developments over the last ten years following the first text, and re-analyzes and re-evaluates the teaching strategies that have the most positive effect on student learning. Topics include setting objectives and providing feedback, reinforcing effort and providing recognition, cooperative learning, cues, questions, and advance organizers, nonlinguistic representations, summarizing and note taking, assigning homework and providing practice, identifying similarities and differences, and generating and testing hypotheses. These strategies are organized and presented within a framework that is geared toward instructional planning, highlighting the point that all of the strategies are effective and should be used to complement one another. Each strategy is supported with recommended classroom practices, examples of the strategy in use, tips for teaching, and information about using the strategy with today’s learners. |
