The Discovery Technique For Teaching Grammar: Just Get Out Of The Way And See How Much ... - 2 views

  • the discovery technique has three primary benefits
  • First
  • since students are solving a grammar mystery, they tend to pay more attention and stay more engaged
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • They are discovering it for themselves
  • Secondly, students who learn with the discovery technique tend to remember the rules of grammar better because they have played a part in discovering them
  • The final benefit might be the greatest of all. Because they have learned grammar by figuring out the rules from context, students familiar with this technique have an easier time figuring out unfamiliar grammar structures they encounter in the future
  • Instead, students are given content in which the target structure is used. Students then discover the grammatical rule or figure out the pattern for themselves. The teacher’s role is to guide students to their own discovery, not to give students the information on the grammar rule.

    I want to eliminate completely the Bloom's taxonomy. Flipping it could be interesting, however it drives teachers and policy makers to continue CLINGING to a very old paradigm and old categorization. Moreover, hierarchies belong to LINEAR THINKING, it is still a traditional way of thinking.

    Thank you for the article. Completely agree with the author (about the flipping thing). Crativity-avaluation-analysis etc leads to learning - that's for sure.

    This site provides you with the opportunity to create digital records of your students. The students have their own user name and password and you can use the parent email address to link them to their child records. It is awesome I am trying it out

    Globalization and rapid technological change have made knowledge a critical determinant of competitiveness in the world economy. The World Bank is playing an important role in assisting countries in taking advantage of the opportunities in information and communications technologies (ICTs) to contribute to education goals and poverty reduction strategies.

    I stopped to read the provided key points about screen time for kids together with its corresponding article because, it has been always a topic in my mind when friends share their disapproval about TV watching. I always back up my thoughts by considering that the problem is not the amount of screen they have but, the purpse for its use. Unfortunately, I believe many parents use TV or simile, as baby sitters, this I consider negative. While reading these articlaes, my ideas became clearer and on paper! Technology, many times neglected by old-fashioned teaching teachers, is often considered in the same way and, I truly believe that it must be also considered something positive, enhancing and motivating if used wisely.
  • noureen30 on 05 Jun 14
     
    Besides all the online applications, programs, tools and games .. screen time is equally important for kids. The article also rejects the myths that parents and teachers have in minds regarding screen time. This perspective can be changed in to positivity by by proper monitoring of kids during screen time.
