How do I use Repetition? - 0 views

      Most of the events that predict whether something learned will also be remembered occur in the first few seconds of learning. The more elaborately we encode a memory during its initial moments, the stronger it will be.

      (Chapter 5)
  • Learners who used a repetition tactic remembered 50% more content after one week (7 days) than did those learners who did not recite.
  • This is a practice activity. Use it with students who are familiar with the lesson content. Students recall facts, labels, lists, rules, or procedures by stating the correct question that corresponds to the answer provided by the narrator while participating in a game to make the lesson more interesting. This activity should be used after the students are familiar with the lesson content.

      Brain Rule #4: People don't pay attention to boring things! If you want your class to remember to repeat, and repeat to remember, play a game with them! Do something to hold their attention.

      This goes along with the idea of CH 6-- We must remember to repeat! The fact that we know repetition is a good learning tool is useless if we don't actually remember to do it. Having a repetition tactic helps out with that goal.

  • Repetition involves repeating the information to be recalled. Repetition can be done verbally, in writing, or mentally. It has been documented that the most effective method of Repetition is verbal repetition because it involves both auditory and vocal senses.

  • 3. Establishing Rules. Establish a set of classroom rules to guide the behavior of students at once. Discuss the rationale of these rules with the students to ensure they understand and see the need for each rule. Keep the list of rules short. The rules most often involve paying attention, respect for others, excessive noise, securing materials and completion of homework assignments.

      As we learned in Brain Rules, it is also important to repeat the rules many times, especially for younger students.  
  • 5. Learning Names. Devise a seating arrangement whereby students' names are quickly learned. Calling a student by his or her name early in the year gives the student an increased sense of well being. It also gives a teacher greater control of situations. "JOHN, stop talking and finish your work" is more effective than "Let us stop talking and finish our work".

      This technique helps us as teachers remember students names.  It deals with brain rule 6, where we need to remember to repeat the same behaviors so that we are able to engrain names in our memories.  
  • 4. Overplaning Lessons. "Overplan" the lessons for the first week or two. It is important for the teacher to impress on the students from the outset that he or she is organized and confident of their ability to get through the syllabus.
    • Jamie LaCava-Owen
       
      Overplanning is necessary for brain rule 4, attention.  If students are left to their own devices, they quickly lose attention and will start doing what they want to do.  It important to over plan so that students remain engaged throughout the class period.

      This also helps students remember what is taught to them, if they are paying attention!!

    This website focuses on the very essential teching practice of classroom management.  This is specifically geared towards elementary- high school classrooms, where structure is necessary all of the time.  i chose this because it relates to Brain Rules 5 and 6.  Repetition is EXTREMELY important for elementary, middle, and high school students when it comes to teacher expectations and policies.  This gives good advice to teachers to help them manage their classrooms.
