Download or read book Learning Tactics Inventory includes sample copy of Participant s Workbook written by Maxine Dalton and published by Pfeiffer. This book was released on 1999-06-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Help managers secure their success by learning to learn! How you learn and what you learn are inextricably linked. Imagine a manager who prefers to resolve situations on her own. If she is offered the opportunity to work on a new project as part of a self-managed team, she may decide to turn it down because it "doesn't suit her style." Or she may not succeed as part of the team because she tries to work out everything by herself. Every time a person avoids a task or uses an unsuitable approach, an opportunity to learn is lost. Both the manager and her organization suffer as a result. If you're striving to create a learning organization, the LTI is just what you've waited for! With the LTI, your participants will discover how they learn best and how they can adopt new learning strategies. "At last, a practical, quick, direct, and easy-to-use tool that helps individuals flex their learning muscles! I'll use the Learning Tactics Inventory (LTI) in my consulting practice right away." --Beverly Kaye, author, Up Is Not the Only Way "The LTI is a very practical and readily usable tool for accessing our current methods of learning and helping us expand beyond those that are 'comfortable', so we can maximize our ability to learn from challenging experiences." --Myrna L.

Download or read book Understanding by Design written by Grant P. Wiggins and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2005 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.

Download or read book The TurnAround ToolKit written by Lynn Winters and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lynn Winters's and Joan Herman's The Turnaround Toolkit is written for school leaders who are focused on transforming instruction, and who may be working under significant time constraints to reverse declining student achievement or public perceptions of school failure. Based on the evidence that simply implementing “continuous improvement” is not enough to close the achievement gap, The Turnaround Toolkit provides a nine-step formative evaluation program designed to achieve an immediate and consistent focus on improving instruction in order to bolster student achievement. In a straightforward and accessible fashion, Herman and Winters explain three overarching “Turnaround Tasks” that frame these steps and the necessary-and sometimes drastic-actions that must be taken by school leaders as they use data to strategically choose, implement, monitor, and revise school interventions. A dedicated, online “toolkit” offers numerous worksheets and templates that support each stage of the process and help school leaders scaffold the work of educators to put an aggressive turnaround plan into action while a leadership guide at the end of the book provides guidance to turnaround teams and facilitators.
