GROUP PAPER

[Gladys]

Hey everyone,

I apologize it took me to write a while, I've been sick with a really bad cold since Friday. 

I tried to divided the group paper as best as I could. Please take a look at it and see if you agree or disagree. I know there are easier parts to assign, like the last two, but I did not think it wise to separate the "activities" part. 

Now, we have to find a way to distribute these assignment. 

We could either choose a color right now, or we can let faith decide and I put these in a basket and we choose one. 

Please let me know, as soon as you can. I want to get started on it to get it out the way, and also have time to put the paper together and so that we can all review it. 

Thanks,

GAE

[Karen Carrillo]

i dont mind doing the behaviorist part. what does it mean by if it entails any strategy instruction?

[Gladys]

Hey guys. I will do the Transfer and Dual coding part. The last part of the paper (PINK). 

[Vivian Paz]

Hi everyone!  I'll take care of the constructivist activities.

[Gladys]

Hi Karen, 

I think "strategy instruction" means any learning or memory strategies that are thought directly by the teacher. 

For instance, for behaviorism:

Rehearsal (say it over and over again in your head, like songs)

Mnemonics

Dual Coding

Take a look at your "Behaviorist Teaching Techniques" powerpoint (SLIDE 3) 

For constructivism (they include Teaching Techniques, Power Point Constructivist Techniques Slide 4))

Advance organizers

Discovery/Guided Discovery 

Modeling 

Coaching 

Scaffolding 

Inquiry learning

Cooperative Learning 

At least that's what I think, we need to ask.

At least that's what I think, we should ask tomorrow!!
