Let’s Use an AVID Strategy Now KWLA § What do you Know about WICOR? § What do you Want to Learn? § How can you Apply this? Slide 7

WICOR Slide 8

What Is WICOR? • W I C O R is a collection of teaching and learning strategies to guide students in comprehending concepts and articulating ideas at increasingly complex levels. • W I C O R strategies support student learning in any classroom on campus. 9

WICOR Writing is: • A learning tool • A personal and public communication tool • A record of thinking Slide 10

WICOR Students who write: • Consider the audience and purpose • Engage in various writing processes to address specific situations • Support their thinking • Demonstrate understanding Slide 11

Writing in CTE Classroom is: • Taking a customer’s order (retail sales) • Writing an invoice (business) • Taking an incident report (public safety) • Documenting an intake in the emergency room (health) Slide 12

WICOR Inquiry is: • Uncovering one’s understanding • Asking critical questions • Engaging in thinking, learning, and discussion Slide 13

WICOR Students who inquire: • Analyze and synthesize materials or ideas • Clarify their own thinking • Probe others’ thinking • Work through ambiguity Slide 14

Inquiry in a CTE Classroom is: • Assessing a noisy engine for repairs • Analyzing a medical issue • Questioning why the car didn’t stop at the stop sign • Deciding how to cut overhead in a declining budget Slide 15

WICOR Collaboration is: • Teamwork with shared responsibility • Sharing of ideas, information, and opinions • Formal and informal discussion Slide 16

WICOR Students who organize: • Develop and use processes, procedures, and tools to study effectively • Manage their time through prioritizing and goalsetting • Are prepared for courses, participate during instruction, and interact with instructors • Self-direct, self-evaluate, self-monitor, and selfadvocate Slide 21

Organization in a CTE classroom is: • Managing materials and equipment • Planning and prioritizing school, work, and social tasks • Engaging in mental preparation and goal-setting • Strategically and intentionally taking responsibility for one’s own learning Slide 22

Organization – (C) & (I) Let’s collaborate and think • How do you require students to be organized in your CTE classroom? • How do you require student to use effective time management skills in your CTE classroom? Slide 23

WICOR Reading is: • Strategically gaining meaning, understanding, and knowledge from print and other media • Purpose-driven • Interactive Slide 24

WICOR Students who read: • Understand text structures • Apply prior knowledge and make connections to other texts, self, and the world • Make predictions and ask questions • Create visual images as they read Slide 25

Quick. Write – an AVID strategy (W) • Write one instructional strategy that you are currently using in your CTE classroom that supports WICOR. • Explain WHY you are using this strategy and how it connects to CTE. Slide 27

AVID Schoolwide Slide 28

What is College and Career Readiness? – (I) Take a moment and reflect and choose ONE word to describe this. Why did you pick this ONE word? Slide 29

What is Rigor? – (I) • What is your definition of rigor? • How is this demonstrated in your CTE classroom? Slide 30

AVID’S Definition AVID defines rigor as using inquiry-based, collaborative strategies to challenge and engage students in content, resulting in increasingly complex levels of understanding. Is this similar to your definition? Slide 31

AVID Instructional Methodologies Let’s learn more about AVID Instructional strategies that support WICOR and provide rigorous instruction. Slide 32

Cornell Notes Slide 33 Note-taking Note-making Note-interacting Note-reflecting

Philosophical Chairs – (I) & (C) Agree Disagree

Let’s Participate in Philosophical Chairs Should all Career Technical Education (CTE) classes be University of California (UC) approved? Slide 35

Costa’s Levels of Thinking 3 2 1 Slide 40 Applying (off the page) evaluate generalize imagine judge predict speculate if/then hypothesize Processing (between the lines) compare contrast classify sort distinguish explain why infer analyze Gathering (on the page) complete define describe identify list observe recite select

Higher Levels of Inquiry – (C) • What are some examples of higher levels of inquiry? • How is this evident in your CTE classroom? • What does business/industry say regarding this? Slide 41

What is an Essential Question – (I) • Why is the essential question important? • What is the key to crafting a good essential question? Slide 42
