Inclusion Strategies Increasing student learning
from lectures
2
The Problem with Lectures
  • Teachers rely heavily on lectures (Brody 1988)
  • More than half of public school time is spent on
    lectures (Putnam et al 1993)
  • Students did not inherently dislike lectures,
    they just did not like poorly prepared and
    uninteresting ones. They had to be compelling.
    (Brown and Bakhtar 1987)

Part 1 Slowdown!
  • ELN students have trouble processing lectures
    going at more than 120 words per minute, they
    cannot take down notes fast enough
  • 9 morphemes or units of meaning is maximum
    someone can understand in a sentence, ELN
    students less so.
  • ELN students also have trouble with Lectures that
    present large amounts of new information.
  • These problems can be alleviated by decreasing
    the amount of new content that is lectured,
    ideally a lecture will consist of 50 new
    information
  • Slowing down lectures, slower than normal talking
    speed will give time for ELN students to keep up
    with the lecture, take notes, enhance their
    motivation and allow them to more effectively
    absorb the information being presented.

Step 2 The Pause Procedure
  • Students tend to stop listening after 10 to 15
    minutes of uninterrupted lecturing
  • Recommendation is that lectures be segmented into
    smaller units such as 5-10 minutes with a short
    1-5 minute pause or break in between.
  • ELN students should be encouraged to use the
    break to share and assess their knowledge with
    fellow students to enhance engagement and
    absorption
  • Also gives extra time fore students to catch up
    on notes.

Step 3 Solicit Student Examples
  • Teachers should relate what is being taught to
    the student in order to increase engagement.
  • Increases assimilation into schema when similar
    concept being taught already exists in a
    different from such as the cycle example.
  • People like to tell their story, We never had a
    student miss a test question on the causes of
    migration pg 73

Step 3 Hit the Critical Points and Teaching the
Big Ideas
  • ELN students had problems determining what is
    important and non important information in a
    lecture.
  • The important points of the lecture must be made
    explicit in order to increase absorption of
    information
  • The information must be meaningful and part of a
    bigger picture rather than isolated facts.
