Teaching for Transfer: What is modeling and why does it matter in your literacy classroom?
In this episode:
Listen in as we talk about what the research says about the importance of modeling in your literacy classroom.
We talk about:
What modeling is, what the research says about it and how you can impact it so that you can increase student learning in your classroom.
Quotables:
- Modeling is the process by which learners pattern their thoughts, beliefs and behaviors after those displayed by one or more models.
-Models provide students with examples of others who have successfully carried out the skill or strategy you are trying to teach. This serves as a form of proof that they too can learn to execute this skill or strategy.
-Modeling plays a vital role in the first two levels of self-regulation. They provide the vehicle by which students can retain the information they observed and transform that into something that they can do on their own.
