Chapter+Notes

  Chapter2: Supporting Student Content Learning Key Words in the chapter :   Knowledge is divided up into 3 categories: declarative, structural, and procedural. Each category is based on one another, where declarative knowledge is the foundation. Principles in effective content learning tasks: 
 * * Declarative Knowledge || * Structural knowledge ||
 * * Flotillas || * JIT learning (Just in Time) ||
 * * Differentiated instruction || * Culturally relevant ||
 * * Usability tests || * Procedural knowledge ||
 * The Central Idea of this Chapter is: Content Learning **
 * 1) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Engage students
 * 2) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Help students become responsible for their own learning =, in whole or in part

 * 5) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Focus on essential questions
 * The teacher’s role in content learning is to help students move from declarative knowledge to structural and procedural knowledge. Guide them to make connections, test hypotheses about how things work, and explore how ideas together.**

In this production is a form of learning whereby students create a product that is focus of learning.
