Marzano Sets the Record Straight on "High-Yield" instructional strategies
Many schools and districts are encouraging — and often requiring — teachers to use nine strategies identified in Classroom Instruction That Works by Robert Marzano, Deborah Pickering and Jane Pollock. But teaching is a complex endeavor with many components. Marzano writes that schools and districts that overemphasize the nine strategies are making three mistakes. They are: • Focusing on a narrow range of strategies; • Assuming that high-yield strategies must be used in every class; and • Assuming that high-yield strategies will always work. He presents a broader set of strategies related to instruction, management, and assessment and demonstrates how those can be used to broaden and deepen instruction that leads to improved student learning. |
