Making Space for Active Learning

The Art and Practice of Teaching

This powerful collection will inspire new and veteran teachers to “make space” for children’s interests, for teaching as relational and intellectual work, and for new insights and ideas. The authors introduce the Prospect Center’s Descriptive Review of Practice, a collaborative inquiry process that provides an opportunity for teachers to examine their practice and gain new perspectives from other participants. The contributors to this volume respond to each child’s modes of thinking as they develop curriculum or find “wiggle room” in curricula they are given. By demonstrating how it is possible to pursue careful knowledge of craft, this book offers ways of teaching that allow for continuing growth and change. Book Features: An inquiry methodology that assists teachers to reflect on the classroom and develop curriculum that responds to children’s interests and needs. Specific examples of a variety of sources teachers can draw on and think about to improve practice. A method of data collection that can inform practice while allowing for the unevenness, messiness, and essential humanness of teaching and learning. “Making Space for Active Learning is a collection that stands alone and gets to the heart of what we mean by learning and teaching. Each contribution reminded me of how much I miss being in the classroom and how much we're missing in current so-called school reform discourse. Keep this book handy. A chapter at a time will restore some needed sanity about what's important.” —Deborah Meier, author and education activist “This book is a moving and powerful collection of teachers' work that holds the possibility of inspiring and changing new teachers' practice.” —Kathy Schultz, Dean and Professor, School of Education, Mills College “This book will add significantly to the expanding and important literature about The Prospect Processes which were developed over many years at the Prospect School and Center in Vermont. The chapters, all by experienced educators, profit from the back-and-forth between inquiry and stories of classroom life, each informing the other.” —Brenda S. Engel, associate professor, retired, Lesley University

Introductory Chemistry: An Active Learning Approach

The new Third Edition of INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY: AN ACTIVE LEARNING APPROACH gives you the tools you need to teach the course your way. As the book's Active Learning Approach subtitle suggests, the authors provide a question-and-answer presentation that allows students to actively learn chemistry while studying an assignment. This approach is reflected in three words of advice and encouragement that are repeated throughout the book: Learn It Now! When students encounter the Learn It Now! icon, an example leads them through a series of steps where they listen to the authors guide them step by step to the solution. As they solve the problem, they actively write each step, covering the answer with the shield provided in the book. This feature turns the common passive read the author's solution approach to examples into an active work the problem while guided by the authors methodology. As with previous editions, this text allows professors to tailor the order of chapters to accommodate their particular needs through two flexible formats--a standard paperbound edition and loose-leaf edition. This flexibility is achieved not only by carefully writing each topic so it never assumes prior knowledge, but also by including any and all necessary preview or review information needed to learn that topic. The new Third Edition has been streamlined and now integrates new features such as helpful technological resources, coached problems, and enhanced art and photography, all of which dovetail with the text's active learning approach. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.

Storytelling as an Active Learning Strategy in Introduction to Psychology Courses

Phenomena of psychology do not occur in a vacuum nor should the instruction of psychology. Previous research indicated a movement towards active learning, which affords instructors and students of psychology the opportunity to break down classroom barriers to bridge academia and real life. Although a substantial amount of research has supported the use of active learning, a gap exists in identifying both the effectiveness of specific techniques and the use of storytelling across disciplines. Specifically, little research has focused on the effectiveness of storytelling as an active learning strategy in introductory college courses, especially in comparison to traditional methods. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to examine the effective use of active learning through storytelling as a means to foster connections between conceptual material and real world application. Participants in this repeated measures, quantitative study included 109 college students who were randomly assigned to one of three experimental learning conditions: No Storytelling, Instructor Story Only, and Instructor Story Plus Student Response. Analyses of variance indicated no significant difference on test scores at Pretest and Posttest 2; however, significant differences were found at Posttest 1. Social change implications for this study may include promoting active learning through storytelling that has the potential to transform learners, instructors, campus environments, online learning communities, and curriculum development practices across higher education.

41 Active Learning Strategies for the Inclusive Classroom, Grades 6–12

Keys to engaging secondary students Research shows that all students—regardless of learning style, disability category, or language difference—learn more effectively when they are engaged in active learning. This book shows teachers how to help all students achieve positive learning outcomes. The authors provide a compilation of strategies that serve as blueprints for instructional design and directions for using them across a variety of content areas. The many benefits of active learning include: A more engaged and interactive classroom Increased self-directed learning Development of higher-order thinking skills such as analysis, synthesis, evaluation Improved reading, discussion, and writing competencies

All teachers question how they can meet the needs of all learners, but middle
school and high school classrooms are content intensive. Teachers think about
whether they need to take more time to teach material, and if so, will there be
enough ...

Art in Action: Traditional Art Appreciation Moves Into Active Learning

The 21st century age of information has arrived and many higher education faculty instructors are still stuck in the 20th century, age of industrialism. However, twelve years ago a small south Texas community college was consciously founded upon active-learning student-centered models of teaching. In accordance with the college plan, all incoming faculty hired had to be willing to change their traditional professor persona and move away from lectures. This qualitative phenomenological study looks at how the art appreciation teachers in this college made the transition from the traditional slides and lecture format to a student-centered active learning teaching environment. The interviewed volunteers consisted of all different ages, ethnicities, levels of teaching experience and who were hired on at different times - thus ensuring a rich cross selection of change experiences to explore.

Scientific studies based on human learning are leading institutions and
instructors toward a more active learning environment. As Meier (2000) notes, “
