Innovating

I adapt behaviors and create new strategies for unique student needs and situations.

A teacher uses various strategies to preview new information. When she notices that some students are having difficulty overcoming misconceptions about upcoming con- tent, she gives a short pretest on the coming lesson. She then uses the results of the pretest to make note of specific students who will need some extra help making linkages with what they already know.

Applying

I engage students
in learning activities that require them to preview and link new knowledge to what has been addressed, and I monitor the extent to which students are making linkages.

A teacher previews new content and asks students to explain how it relates to previously learned information. He assesses what students already know about the new content, including any confusion and misconceptions, and adjusts his instruction accordingly.

Developing

I engage students in learning activities that require them to preview and link new knowledge to what has been addressed, but I do not monitor the effect on students.

A teacher previews new content and asks students to think about how it relates to previously learned information, but does nothing to determine if students are activating their prior knowledge.

I use the strategies and behaviors associated with this element incorrectly or with parts missing.

A teacher previews new content before beginning a lesson, but does not ask stu- dents to think about how the new information relates to previously learned information.
