Innovating
I adapt behaviors and create new strategies for unique student needs and situations.
A teacher uses various strategies to engage students in reflection on their own learning and the learning process. When she notices that a particular student is having difficulty improving his learning in a specific content area, she leads him in an examination of his past efforts in other content areas to identify the practices that led to subsequent improvement.

Applying
I engage students in reflecting on their own learning and the learning process, and I monitor the extent to which students self-assess their understanding and effort.
A teacher poses specific questions to students to prompt them to think about what they have learned and explore the learning process. He asks students to record their thoughts, and regularly reviews these journals with them to evaluate their progress and help them adjust their approach to learning.
