Download or read book Writing for Study Purposes written by Arthur Brookes and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing for Study Purposes puts forward a new approach to the teaching of writing. The essential principles are that language development should be related to the broader needs of the curriculum, that we always write for a purpose and a specific reader, and that learners are individuals with their own personal needs and intentions, resources and concerns. Writing for Study Purposes emphasizes the processes by which learners can write free from the constraints of other people's ideas and the need to conform to prescriptions. The first section looks in detail at the issues surrounding the teaching of writing in an academic context. It examines the writing process, cultural assumptions, ways of improving and evaluating writing, and ways of using exercises in the classroom. The second section presents a wide range of writing exercises, grouped together into four categories: syllabus negotiation, organization of material, cross-cultural considerations, and writing skills and techniques. Writing forStudy Purposes provides ideas and resources for all those who are teaching writing within a communicative approach. It is suitable for use with students at intermediate and more advanced levels.
Download or read book All Students Can Succeed written by Jean Stockard and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on more than ten years of research, All Students Can Succeed presents a comprehensive review of research related to Direct Instruction (DI), a highly structured method of teaching based on the assumption that all students can learn if given appropriate instruction. The authors identify over 500 research reports published over the last 50 years and encompassing almost 4,000 effect sizes, no doubt the largest meta-analysis of any single method of instruction ever published. Extensive statistical analyses show that estimates of DI’s effectiveness are consistent over time, with different research approaches, across different school environments, students from all types of backgrounds, different comparative programs, and both academic achievement and non-academic outcomes including student self-confidence. Effects are substantially stronger than those reported for other curricula. When students have DI for more time and when teachers implement the programs as designed, the effects are even stronger. Results indicate that DI has the potential to dramatically change patterns of student achievement in the United States. In an even-handed style accessible to policy makers, educators, and parents, the authors describe the theory underlying DI, its development, use, and history; systematically examine criticisms; and discuss policy implications. Extensive appendices provide detailed information for researchers.

Download or read book Direct Instruction A practitioner s handbook written by Kurt Engelmann and published by John Catt. This book was released on 2024-04-05 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Direct Instruction (DI) is a powerful instructional approach designed to ensure that students master critical skills and content required for more advanced learning. Although DI has existed since the late 1960s, there are many common misconceptions about the approach, its potential to enhance student learning and the way its proper implementation facilitates students' academic success. This book provides a systematic explanation of the Direct Instruction methodology and DI program design as it outlines a roadmap for teachers and school leaders on how to implement DI successfully. Divided into three main sections, the first section describes DI as a coherent and complete teaching-and-learning system that contrasts DI with lower case "di" or explicit instruction, which focuses on effective instructional delivery techniques. The second section provides a step-by-step guide to implementing DI. The third section is devoted to cautions about implementing DI. This section reinforces the notion that the physical possession of the DI curricula does not by itself lead to student success. Those who adopt DI need to ensure that it is implemented with fidelity for the benefit of their students who are reliant on them to provide them with the means to achieve their academic potential so they may lead healthy, productive lives.

Download or read book Testcraft written by Fred Davidson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVThe creation of language tests is—and should be—a craft that is accessible and doable not only by a few language test experts, but also by many others who are involved in second/foreign language education, say the authors of this clear and timely book. Fred Davidson and Brian Lynch offer language educators a how-to guide for creating tests that reliably measure exactly what they are intended to measure. Classroom teachers, language administrators, and professors of language testing courses will find in this book an easy and flexible approach to language testing as well as the tools they need to develop tests appropriate to their individual needs. Davidson and Lynch explain criterion-related language test development, a process that focuses on the early stages of test development when the criterion to be tested is defined, specifications are established, and items and tasks are written. This process helps clarify the description of what is being measured by a test and enables teachers to give input on test design in any instructional setting. Informed by extensive research in criterion-referenced measurement, this book invites all language educators to participate in the craft of test development and shows them how to go about it./div
