A proven program for enhancing students' thinking and comprehension abilities Visible Thinking is a research-based approach to teaching thinking, begun at Harvard's Project Zero, that develops students' thinking dispositions, while at the same time deepening their understanding of the topics they study. Rather than a set of fixed lessons, Visible Thinking is a varied collection of practices, including thinking routines?small sets of questions or a short sequence of steps?as well as the documentation of student thinking. Using this process thinking becomes visible as the students' different viewpoints are expressed, documented, discussed and reflected upon. Helps direct student thinking and structure classroom discussion Can be applied with students at all grade levels and in all content areas Includes easy-to-implement classroom strategies The book also comes with a DVD of video clips featuring Visible Thinking in practice in different classrooms.

Even on good days, teaching is a challenging profession. One way to make the job of college instructors easier, however, is to know more about the ways students learn. How Humans Learn aims to do just that by peering behind the curtain and surveying research in fields as diverse as developmental psychology, anthropology, and cognitive neuroscience for insight into the science behind learning. The result is a story that ranges from investigations of the evolutionary record to studies of infants discovering the world for the first time, and from a look into how our brains respond to fear to a reckoning with the importance of gestures and language. Joshua R. Eyler identifies five broad themes running through recent scientific inquiry--curiosity, sociality, emotion, authenticity, and failure--devoting a chapter to each and providing practical takeaways for busy teachers. He also interviews and observes college instructors across the country, placing theoretical insight in dialogue with classroom experience.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1880 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER V. LESSONS ON ANIMALS. 1. Lessons on animals extend the range, and widen the purpose of object lessons. Precluded in most part from having the animal in presence, and confined to such makeshift substitutes as pictures and stuffed specimens, there are not the direct means of cultivating observation, as in the case of an object before the class. In this there is no loss. For more is sought and more is possible in lessons on animals than the culture of observation merely. 2. A threefold culture, exclusive of their moral purpose, is sought by these lessons, (a) They offer a wide range of facts for observation; facts that are admirably adapted to extend and strengthen the habit which the object lesson has begun. Colour, size, shape, covering--its structure, qualities and uses, actions, food, modes of getting food, and other things of like kind, give the material for this purpose. (6) They offer also an extensive array of facts for the culture of the conceptive faculty and fancy. Facts and anecdotes abound illustrative of instincts, dispositions, habits, and intelligence. These presented by graphic picturing will not only call the higher powers of conception and fancy into play, but will excite the desire and furnish the power of a more widely extended observation, (c) They offer also the means of cultivating the sense of relation and of incipient judgment. The marked instances of resemblance amidst diversity, the opportunities of working out analogies, the relations that abound, and the adaptation of structure to habits, food and circumstances, furnish the means and suggest the propriety of this higher culture. It will be found, too, that such things are not only not beyond children's powers, but that they are interesting and...
