On a sheet of paper, classify examples of content knowledge you plan to use in your unit: Declarative Procedural
Planning for Declarative Knowledge Which general topics will be the focus of the unit? Topic Unit Topic
What specific key information should be integrated and acquired? Specific Information Topic Specific Information
Identifying Specific Information Within a General Topic In this topic are there: n descriptions of specific people, places, and things ? n time sequences ? Specific Information n processes or casual networks? n problems and solutions? n generalizations or Specific Information principles? n concepts ? Specific Information Topic Specific Information
At the end of a poorly planned unit, “factlets” are randomly stored in the student’s brain. f ff f F ff ff f F, f= factlets F ff F
A better organized unit will lead students to an awareness of key ideas and the relationship among these ideas. Problems and Time Sequence Solutions F Problems F F f f f
When information goes beyond facts and includes concepts and generalizations, transfer occurs from topic to topic. Generalization Concepts f f f
Colorado History Concepts: Topography, natural resources, culture Generalizations: Topography and natural resources influence the culture of a region. Organized Facts: Sequence of Events Cause and Effect Factlets: There are mountains. Miners came. There was gold.
Why is it important to construct meaning?
Constructing Meaning For Declarative Knowledge
Constructing Meaning n n n Use three-minute pause Experience content using a variety of senses KWL strategy Concept Attainment Reciprocal Teaching Before, During, After
3 Minute Pause Ask students to do the following: n Summarize what they just experienced n Identify interesting aspects of what they just experienced n Identify confusions and try to clear them up
Access a Variety of Senses

Think, Pair, Share n With your tablemates, discuss some of the strategies you use to encourage students to remember important factual knowledge or concepts and ideas?
Mnemonic Strategies n. ROY G BIV n My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas.
n Link Strategy n Chunking n Formal Systems for Storing Info – rhyming pegword – number/picture – familiar place
Link Strategy Create this picture in your head: n A brown Jersey cow n A Jersey cow named Georgia n See her standing on one hind leg, balancing on “The Big Apple” n She is wearing yellow underwear
She is singing Christmas Carols, hear them. n Under her right foot is a Virginia ham; smell and taste it. n In her left hand is a pen. n With her pen she is connecting dots in the air. n The picture formed by the dots is becoming clear. n It’s a long winding road. On the road is Marilyn Monroe going to Mass. n
Link Strategy for the 13 Colonies n n n George = Georgia Jersey Cow = New Jersey The Big Apple = New York Christmas Carols = North and South Carolina Yellow underwear = Delaware n n n Virginia ham = Virginia and New Hampshire pen = Pennsylvania connecting dots = Connecticut road = Rhode Island Marilyn = Maryland Mass = Massachusetts

The Brain Looks For Chunks A chunk is a group of items we can remember as if it were a single item. Short term memory can remember about 5 to 7 chunks
Organizing and Storing Declarative Knowledge n n With your partner, develop an example for organizing or storing declarative knowledge in your content area. Be prepared to share your idea with the group
Dimension 2
Procedural Knowledge n Constructing n Shaping n Internalizing Models
Constructing Models for Procedural Knowledge n Use “thinking aloud” to demonstrate a new skill or process Use a list of steps n Use/create flow charts n n Use mental rehearsal of steps involved in a skill or process
Shaping Procedural Knowledge Demonstrate and provide practice in the important variations of the skill or process n Point out common errors and pitfalls n Practice the procedure in many different ways n
Internalizing Procedural Knowledge Help students set up a practice schedule. n Have students chart their accuracy when practicing new skills or process. n Have students chart their speed when learning a new skill or process. n
Internalizing Procedural Knowledge Practice Does Not Make Perfect, But Permanent
Practicing Procedural Knowledge n n Green Team: How to Properly Use Chopsticks Red Team: How to Make Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches for 300 Students n n n Blue Team: How to Braid Hair (any style) Pink Team: How to Do Origami Orange Team: How to Double-Dutch Jump Rope
Planning for Procedural Knowledge n Think of a procedure you’ll be teaching during this course and answer the following 4 questions:
1. Which skills and processes do students really need to master? 2. How will students be aided in constructing models? 3. How will students be aided in shaping the skill or process? 4. How will students be aided in internalizing the skill or process?
