Strategies

**Nine Instructional Strategies** (Reinforcement and recognition were originally one as were setting objectives and providing feedback.)
 * 1) Setting objectives: Giving direction for learning
 * 2) Providing feedback: Information on how well they performed so that they can improve relative to goal.
 * 3) Providing recognition: Recognition for accomplishment in achieving the goal.
 * 4) Cues, questions, and advance organizers: Ways to remember, organize and use what they know.
 * 5) Nonlinguistic representation: Use mental images
 * 6) Summarizing and note taking: synthesize and organize information to capture main ideas and supporting details.
 * 7) Cooperative learning: interact with other students in groups to enhance learning
 * 8) Reinforcing effort: make connection between effort and achievement; address beliefs about attitude and learning
 * 9) Identifying similarities and differences: think about how items are alike and different
 * 10) Homework and practice: practice, review and apply.
 * 11) Generating and testing hypotheses: use their knowledge to make and test hypotheses
