Classroom Instruction That Works: Research-Based Strategies for Increasing Student Achievement
What works in education? How do we know? How can teachers find out? How can educational research find its way into the classroom? How can we apply it to help our individual students? Questions like these arise in most schools, and busy educators often don't have time to find the answers. Robert J. Marzano, Debra J. Pickering, and Jane E. Pollock have examined decades of research findings to distill the results into nine broad teaching strategies that have positive effects on student learning: * Identifying similarities and differences.
* Summarizing and note taking.
* Reinforcing effort and providing recognition.
* Homework and practice.
* Nonlinguistic representations.
* Cooperative learning.
* Setting objectives and providing feedback.
* Generating and testing hypotheses.
* Questions, cues, and advance organizers.
This list is not new. But what is surprising is finding out what a big difference it makes, for example, when students learn how to take good notes, work in groups, and use graphic organizers. The authors provide statistical effect sizes and show how these translate into percentile gains for students, for each strategy. And each chapter presents extended classroom examples of teachers and students in action; models of successful instruction; and many "frames," rubrics, organizers, and charts to help teachers plan and implement the strategies.

Never received the book or reply from seller
I did not receive this book and had to share with a peer for the whole class..I emailed the seller several times but never received a reply.
Something old, nothing new
Imagine that, another educator taking age old ideas-for the most part-renaming the components & making a nice deposit in his bank account. Go back and dust off titles by Hunter, Bloom, & the like & you'll do yourself a favor. Or if you're really ambitious go to school, get your doctorate in Ed & package old ideas as new like Marzzano has done.
Classroom Instruction that Works
This text book was required for my education class, The Effective Teacher. I have found the book to be very helpful in establishing effective procedures and classroom management to help increase student achievement.
