It gives teachers useful information on how to organize instruction for remedial and normal readers. All children need to become independent readers, not only for obtaining necessary information but also for their own enjoyment. This book shifts the emphasis from simply testing for comprehension skills to teaching comprehension in the light of new theories about the learning process. Dr. Maria provides sample lessons that demonstrate how students can learn from each other as well as from the teacher. Reading Comprehension Instruction tells teachers what to look for in choosing texts for remedial and regular students: language and structure that is easy for beginning readers to understand clear organizational patterns text content that includes childrens' background knowledge language that matches the childrens' language ability.

WASHINGTON About 30% of first-time college students take remedial courses became they can't read, write or do math adequately. At community colleges, the percentage is often much higher-and it's rising. Is this a problem? Or is it a solution? A vocal band of politicians and college trustees see it only as a problem. Florida's legislature now requires students who flunk a remedial course to pay triple the normal tuition the second time. "Surely the taxpayers shouldn't pay for you to take" a remedial course again, says legislator Robert Shindler. Elsewhere, legislators talk of charging high schools the cost of teaching their graduates the basics. A few congressmen fret about giving financial aid to students who are learning to read in college.

Title I is designed to meet the educational needs of economically disadvantaged children and improve student achievement. The program funds remedial reading and math instructional programs and is designed to help children who live in or near poverty. Title I also has huge funding discrepancies from one school district to another. Title I allocations to the states vary because of the complex formulas that govern the program. For example, Oklahoma receives $576 for each student below the poverty line, while Vermont receives about $1,326. Among large metropolitan areas, the variation in the distribution of Title I dollars is also significant. For example, Phoenix, Arizona, receives $570 per poor student, while Boston, Massachusetts, receives $1,045. In light of the failure of traditional Title I programs to raise student achievement, the U.S. Department of Education has shifted its focus away from individualized instruction to programs that reform an entire school. Schoolwide programs, especially externally developed "models," are being overemphasized with little research evidence backing their superiority. Schoolwide programs also make measuring individual achievement, which is required by the tougher accountability standards in the 1994 reauthorization and the pending reauthorization difficult. Whole-school assessment cannot isolate which specific programs (like Title-I interventions) are responsible for increases or decreases in student achievement.

ASSOCIATE DEGREE INSTRUCTION Faculty teaching courses at the Associate Degree level in each of the following areas - Humanities and Fine Arts, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Natural Science and Mathematics, and Business Administration (not including Bookkeeping, Keyboarding and other courses that are Technical in orientation and purpose) - must have completed at least 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline and hold a master's degree, or hold the minimum of a master's degree with a major in the teaching discipline. TECHNICAL SPECIALITY INSTRUCTION Courses in Associate Applied Science Degree programs require both academic preparation and work experience. The typical combination is a Bachelor's degree with appropriate work experience. A Master's degree preparation is required for faculty teaching courses where college transfer is a goal, or where substantial numbers of students transfer to senior institutions. In all cases, teaching faculty members must have technical competence in the fields in which they teach. In certain exceptional cases, unique experience and demonstrated competence may substitute for advanced academic preparation. Such exceptions must be justified by the institution on an individual basis. It is the responsibility of the institution to document and keep on file work experience, certifications and other qualifications, if these are to substitute for, or supplement, formal academic preparation.

Some educators tend to use one method over the other, while others combine the two. As a future teacher, it is important to know and understand both of these teaching methods. It is also crucial to find which method works best for particular subjects. My goal in this project is to find out what actual teachers feel about these two approaches and how they use them in their own classroom. Constructivism: Learner-Centered Instruction In Constructivist Teaching learners construct their own understanding rather than having it delivered or transmitted to them. Learners use their own experiences to construct understandings that make sense to them. New learning depends on prior understanding and is interpreted in the context of current understanding, not first as isolated information that is later related to existing knowledge. Learning is enhanced by social interaction. Social interaction in constructivist lessons encourage students to verbalize their thinking and refine their understandings by comparing them with those of others.

11. A Brief History Of Library Instruction In The United States Of America teach remedial students research methods and expose them to standard resources. Three teacher workshops are offered, covering "Basic instruction http://www.libraryreference.org/lihistory.html

A Brief History of Library Instruction in the United States of America Michael Lorenzen, M.L.S, M.Ed. It is likely that librarians have always to a limited degree been involved in classroom teaching. For example, it is hard to imagine that the librarians at the Great Library of Alexandria did not assemble from time to time small groups of students and visiting scholars and instruct them on the proper handling and use of the valuable scrolls that resided there. Throughout most of history librarians have been members of other professions (the clergy and scholars of various disciplines) who took on the additional duty of maintaining the library collection of their institutions. It is highly likely that these individuals introduced library concepts into their regular lectures pertaining to their area of expertise. Unfortunately, no written record appears to exist detailing how library instruction in the classroom was carried out or how often it was conducted. German library literature records various examples of library instruction from the 17th to 19th Centuries. Ewert (1986) gave a summary of this literature and detailed where the library instruction occurred, who generally was conducting it, and what was covered. Unfortunately, the article was written in communist East Germany and most of the examples are tied into how these instruction sessions ultimately aided the climate of revolution against capitalism. This makes it difficult to determine what the curriculum of the classes was or how many non-revolutionary library instruction examples may have occurred. Regardless, it shows that a tradition of library instruction in academic institutions had developed in Germany prior to the its origins in the United States in the late 19th Century. As the United State's higher education system is based on the German model, this may have influenced the earliest academic library instruction practitioners in the US.

The 5-4 decision is expected to save millions of dollars a year in administrative costs for a federal program to help children from low-income families. It also could give new ammunition to advocates of tax breaks for parents who send their children to parochial schools.

Home Textbooks Books Music ... Product Support Reading Techniques for Struggling Learners Dr. Joe Sutton Researchers tell us that struggling learners learn differently. We also know that more effective teachers of struggling learners will teach differently. Special education scholars have rightly concluded that struggling learners, particularly those with disabilities, need "specific, directed, individualized, intensive, remedial instruction" in order to be successful learners in basic academics, including reading. Unfortunately, reading instruction in general education classrooms today is mostly group-oriented, not individualized, and emphasizes materials (i.e., textbooks, workbooks, teacher manuals) rather than methods (i.e., teacher-directed, intensive teaching techniques). When used alone, reading instruction driven largely by standard curricular materials is generally ineffective for struggling learners. These students fall behind early on, and the gap between their potential and their actual reading achievement widens across time.
