Marzano's Essential 9


Do you need to learn more about Marzano's Essential 9 Strategies for use in the classroom or for an O.I.P. goal? McREL identified these strategies as most likely to improve student achievement across all content areas and across all grade levels. Teachers and administrators can select one or more of the "Marzano " trainings below presented by MVESC.
1/20/10 - 3:45 to 4:45 - Setting Objectives and Providing Feedback
Setting objectives can provide students with a direction for their learning. Goals should be adaptable to students' own objectives.

2/10/10 - 3:45 to 4:45 - Generating and Testing Hypotheses
Research shows that a deductive approach (using a general rule to make a prediction) to this strategy works best. Whether a hypothesis is induced or deduced, students should clearly explain their hypotheses and conclusions.

2/17/10 - 3:45 to 4:45 - Cooperative Learning
Research shows that organizing students into cooperative groups yields a positive effect on overall learning.
