thinking, talking, cooperating

Edición de la obra Engaging students

In Engaging Students, four highly qualified educators provide classroom-tested, research-based instructional approaches that engage students in learning through thought and talk. They show ways to significantly improve students' abilities to solve problems and to think critically and creatively by using "Think Trix," a thinking typology that guides students' analytic reasoning. Readers will learn ways to teach and reinforce academic oral language skills, as well as how to support thinking and oral language skills in a cooperative learning environment. The authors give step-by-step guidance and illustrate the concepts through stories of teachers who have used these methods. The resource section contains helpful information and illustrative activities that combine Think Trix, graphic organizers, and cooperative learning.
