• Read each statement about teacher practice. Place a green, yellow or red dot to indicate the frequency with which you use this practice.
• Think of a colleague, mentor, or new teacher. Place a green, yellow or red dot to indicate the frequency with which he or she uses this practice.
INTRODUCTION

1. Classroom routines function smoothly.
“[Teachers] plan for classroom management. ...students practice procedures enough to execute them in a routine fashion.”Marzano – Classroom Management
2. Plans include student learning activities.
“...a teacher’s role is not so much to teach as it is to arrange for learning. That is, a teacher’s essential responsibility is…to design (or select or adapt) learning activities such that students learn important content.”Danielson – Planning

ENGAGEMENT

3. Higher order questions are asked.“Teachers’ questions probe student thinking and serve to extend understanding.”Danielson – Questions
4. Students work in small and large groups.
“Students may be grouped in many different ways to enhance their level of engagement: in a single, large group, led by either the teacher or another student; in small groups, either working on their own or in an instructional activity with a teacher; or independently.” Danielson – Groups

5. Technology is used to enhance learning.
“Teacher uses instructional technology to enhance student learning.”
Stronge – Technology
6. Students self-reflect.“...to actively process information...students reflect on their experiences.” Marzano – Reflection

WHY INTELLECTUAL ENGAGEMENT?
• Leading experts on teaching practice identify student engagement as core to learning.

WHY INTELLECTUAL ENGAGEMENT?
• Additionally, these frameworks all point to student-leadership in lessons as evidence of effective instruction throughout their domains.

Essential Question:How does classroom management support
intellectual engagement?
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
14
• On separate post-its, write 3-5 classroom management strategies that you utilize.
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
ACTIVITY
15
• In your group, place the post-its on the Control/Engagement Venn Diagram.
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT ACTIVITY
16
• With your group, choose a strategy used for Control and discuss how it can be modified for greater Engagement.
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT ACTIVITY
17
• How do effective teachers make the best use of instructional time?
―Maximize instructional time
―Ensure smooth transitions
―Maintain momentum
―Limit disruptions
• Debrief: How does classroom management foster intellectual engagement?
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
KEY CONCEPTS
19
Effective teachers plan for intellectual engagement by identifying clear lesson and learning objectives, and carefully linking activities to them that engage students based on their needs.
PLANNING RESEARCH
20
PLANNING ACTIVITY
Grade One Reading
21
• Using your video guide, share what you noticed with a partner.
Share with whole group:• What evidence do you have that the
students were engaged?• What did the teacher do to make this
happen?
PLANNING ACTIVITY
23
• Lesson plans which foster intellectual
engagement have:
−clear student objectives
−organized content presentation that include student
activities
−selected curriculum resources that reflect the
objectives and student characteristics
−prepared questions to check for understanding and
extend the learning opportunities
PLANNING KEY CONCEPTS
24
• Effective lesson plans include the following:
− Objective
− Teacher activities
− Student activities
− Materials and resources
− Assessment strategy
Planning & Management Interview
PLANNING KEY CONCEPTS
Notice, the educator used past assessment data to tailor her objectives, activities, and materials to meet the needs of her students. This is key to enhancing engagement.
25
• Review your lesson plan.
• Identify routines and student activities which foster intellectual engagement.
• Add to your lesson plan to foster greater intellectual engagement.

Building a Foundation for Engagement • Management• Planning
Core Engagement Strategies:• Questioning
FOSTERING INTELLECTUAL ENGAGEMENT
32
How do questions promote learning?• Stimulate thinking• Clarify understanding• Reveal misconceptions • Deepen understanding• Hear alternate views• Make connections
QUESTIONS RESEARCH
33
• On separate post-its, write each question that you hear in the video.
Questions
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
34
Affinity Protocol: • With your group, place all of
your post-its on the wall.• Sort all of the questions
that you collected by only moving your post-its (No talking).
• Share how you sorted them in your group.
• Share out with whole group.
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
35
• Possible ways to categorize questions− Low level/high level
−Open/closed
−Teacher/student
−Divergent/convergent
−Google/good
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
36
Questions need to be purposeful.
Intellectual engagement requires a mix of questions, beginning with lower level, teacher-created, convergent, Google-type questions for management and assessment . . .
QUESTIONS KEY CONCEPTS
37
. . . and leading towards open ended, higher-order, divergent, “good” questions which cause engagement and learning because they require discussion, research, and evidence to support the answer.
QUESTIONS KEY CONCEPTS
38
• Write higher order questions.
• Questions which cause learning require planning.
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
40
• Write three questions using the chart, and identify the purpose of the question.
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
41
Examples of questions with different purposes:
Management • How do we move into groups?• Who is the time-keeper?
Assessment• What is the capital of China?• Who is the main character?• When would photosynthesis occur?
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
42
Examples of questions with different purposes:
Cause engagement & learning• Where did we use this concept before?• How might this impact the future?• Why do you multiply by the reciprocal when
dividing fractions?• How will you support your thesis statement?
QUESTIONS ACTIVITY
43
• Review your lesson plan.
• Identify questions which foster intellectual engagement.
• Add questions to your lesson plan to foster greater intellectual engagement.

FOSTERING INTELLECTUAL ENGAGEMENT
47
Essential Question: How can using appropriate instructional groups support
intellectual engagement?
INSTRUCTIONAL GROUPS
48
• Working with a small group provides “high quality”, intensive instruction appropriate for every member of the group. (Fountas and Pinnell, 2001)
• Teachers challenge all learners by providing instruction at varied levels of difficulty based on needs by using instructional groups.(Tomlinson, 2000)
• Cooperative group work results in increased self esteem, improved relationships among students, and increased social and educational skills. (Gillies, 2008)
• The most powerful single modification that enhances achievement is feedback through small group instruction. (Hattie, 1992)
INSTRUCTIONAL GROUPS RESEARCH

Teacher Talk: Let’s Do the Math!
In a study, it was found that teachers talk about of the time and students talk about of the time.
So, in a one-hour class, the teacher talks ______minutes and the
students talk ______minutes.
If the teacher calls on 30 students one at a time in a one hour period, how long is each student given to interact in
class?

• After watching the videos and taking notes, what characteristics were necessary for the groups to work?
• Use Silent Discussion Protocol to share with your group. Use words, pictures, or phrases to write one thing you noticed on the chart paper. When prompted, turn chart paper, read and write more. Continue until you are back to your initial comment.

TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH
68
• Technology
• How do students use technology to increase intellectual engagement?
TECHNOLOGY ACTIVITY
69
• Technology in the classroom supports engagement, assessment, and differentiation.(Examples: Today’s Meet, Socrative, Google Forms)
• Technology outside the classroom supports ongoing learning.(Examples: Google Docs, Online classrooms such as Moodle, Google Classroom and Canvas, Edmodo, Weebly, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Remind)
• Use what’s permitted – there is plenty to choose from.
TECHNOLOGY KEY CONCEPTS

Essential Question: How can planning time for reflection
support intellectual engagement?
REFLECTION
72
• Take a moment to look back at your reflection journal prompts.
• After reading your 3 responses, reflect on your learning about intellectual engagement.
REFLECTION ACTIVITY
73
4 R’s of Reflecting
• Restate - what did you learn • React - what is your opinion • Remember – relate to your
experience • Respond - with a question
REFLECTION ACTIVITY
74
How might this adult reflection activity be used in a classroom to
support students’ intellectual engagement?
REFLECTION
75
• When teachers
– establish strong routines and plan well
– use higher order questions routinely
– use instructional groups routinely
– enhance experiences with appropriate technology and
reflection
• then students take control of their learning.
