Download or read book The Effect of Higher Order Thinking on Reading Achievement written by Amanda Koch and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is an increase in the number of English Language Learners (ELL) entering school, and according to standardized test data for the Georgia Milestones, these students typically do not perform well in reading. Research by Goldenberg (2014) found that a possible cause of academic underachievement could be the ELL students' lack of English language proficiency or their lack of content knowledge and skills. Some teachers do not believe that all kids can think at a higher level, but students need to be given opportunities to use higher level thinking through engaging and authentic lessons. Therefore, the research question that guided this study was: Does the use of higher order thinking strategies impact the ESOL students' reading achievement? The goal was to increase the students' academic performance in reading. The study was an action research design using quantitative methods in which student test data was collected and analyzed to illustrate any changes in the reading achievement of students."--Page 6

This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, we try to provide a practical, down-to-earth guide for those who are involved in language learning and teaching. We hope that this book will be a useful reading for those who would like to incorporate higher-order thinking skills (HOTS)-enhancing techniques in their teaching practice. We set out from the position that, although it is hardly doubtful that it is at the heart of education, critical thinking is in reality often not given its due attention in pedagogy, particularly in language education. This book offers readers some practical advice on how to implement HOTS in their own practice. It has been written to take the reader through each technique with the ultimate goal of promoting HOTS step-by-step. In the introductory chapter, we present an overview of the theory behind HOTS, its definition, its relation to Bloom’s Taxonomy, its two dimensions (critical thinking and reflective thinking), and the ideas of some influential thinkers in this area. The subsequent chapters present six HOTS-enhancing techniques that classroom teachers can draw from, namely graphic organizers, critical discourse analysis, argumentation, emotion regulation and emotional intelligence enhancing techniques, reflective journals, and mindfulness-based strategies. As the book draws on a wide-ranging review of literature with exercises for direct use with language learners, we hope that this provides both theoretical and practical support for the teaching process to help language learners become effective critical thinkers. The compilation of the ideas in this book took us a long time, over a decade. Something that takes such a long time requires much engagement and life experience; so did this book.

Download or read book How to Assess Higher-Order Thinking Skills in Your Classroom written by Susan M. Brookhart and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2010-09-06 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educators know it's important to get students to engage in "higher-order thinking." But what does higher-order thinking actually look like? And how can K-12 classroom teachers assess it across the disciplines? Author, consultant, and former classroom teacher Susan M. Brookhart answers these questions and more in this straightforward, practical guide to assessment that can help teachers determine if students are actually displaying the kind of complex thinking that current content standards emphasize. Brookhart begins by laying out principles for assessment in general and for assessment of higher-order thinking in particular. She then defines and describes aspects of higher-order thinking according to the categories established in leading taxonomies, giving specific guidance on how to assess students in the following areas: * Analysis, evaluation, and creation * Logic and reasoning * Judgment * Problem solving * Creativity and creative thinking Examples drawn from the National Assessment of Educational Progress and from actual classroom teachers include multiple-choice items, constructed-response (essay) items, and performance assessment tasks. Readers will learn how to use formative assessment to improve student work and then use summative assessment for grading or scoring. Aimed at elementary, middle, and high school teachers in all subject areas, How to Assess Higher-Order Thinking Skills in Your Classroom provides essential background, sound advice, and thoughtful insight into an area of increasing importance for the success of students in the classroom—and in life.
Book Synopsis Assessment of Higher Order Thinking Skills by : Gregory Schraw
Download or read book Assessment of Higher Order Thinking Skills written by Gregory Schraw and published by IAP. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the assessment of higher order thinking skills from the perspectives of applied cognitive psychology and measurement theory. The volume considers a variety of higher order thinking skills, including problem solving, critical thinking, argumentation, decision making, creativity, metacognition, and self-regulation. Fourteen chapters by experts in learning and measurement comprise four sections which address conceptual approaches to understanding higher order thinking skills, cognitively oriented assessment models, thinking in the content domains, and practical assessment issues. The volume discusses models of thinking skills, as well as applied issues related to the construction, validation, administration and scoring of perfomancebased, selected-response, and constructed-response assessments. The goal of the volume is to promote a better theoretical understanding of higher order thinking in order to facilitate instruction and assessment of those skills among students in all K-12 content domains, as well as professional licensure and cetification settings.

Book Synopsis Verbal Protocols of Reading by : Michael Pressley
Download or read book Verbal Protocols of Reading written by Michael Pressley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers from a variety of disciplines have collected verbal protocols of reading as a window on conscious reading processes. Because such work has occurred in different disciplines, many who have conducted verbal protocol analyses have been unaware of the research of others. This volume brings together the existing literature from the various fields in which verbal protocols of reading have been generated. In so doing, the authors provide an organized catalog of all conscious verbal processes reported in studies to date -- the most complete analysis of conscious reading now available in the literature. When the results of all of the studies are considered, there is clear support for a number of models of reading comprehension including reader response theories, schema perspectives, executive processing models, and bottom-up approaches such as the one proposed by van Dijk and Kintsch. The summary of results also demonstrates that none of the existing models goes far enough. Thus, a new framework -- constructively responsive reading -- is described. This new model encompasses reader response, schematic and executive processing, and induction from word- and phrase-level comprehension to higher-order meaning. The important concept in this new model is that readers respond to bits and pieces of text as they are encountered, all as part of the overarching goal of constructing meaning from text. This volume also includes a critical review of the thinking aloud methodology as it has been used thus far. This examination suggests that it continues to be an immature methodology, and that much work is needed if a complete theory of conscious processing during reading is to be developed via verbal protocol analysis. Finally, after reviewing what has been accomplished to date, the authors provide extensive discussion of the work that remains to be done and the adequacy of the verbal protocol methodology for permitting telling conclusions about text processing.

Book Synopsis The Implementation of Higher-order Thinking Strategies to Increase Student Engagement and Academic Achievement by : Khalimah Jackson
Download or read book The Implementation of Higher-order Thinking Strategies to Increase Student Engagement and Academic Achievement written by Khalimah Jackson and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to implement higher-order thinking strategies and academic achievement are strong indicators of student performance. The purpose of the study was to determine if the implementation of using higher-order thinking strategies increased student engagement and academic achievement. The study also assessed the impact that direct teaching of higher-order thinking strategies has on students' reports of engagement. Students were surveyed about their engagement and higher-order thinking levels across two platforms, classroom practices and student practices. In the past, higher-order strategies, and critical thinking activities have been reserved for gifted education or talent development, however these activities are increasingly becoming more prominent in the traditional classroom setting. This study explored student development in the areas of student engagement and academic achievement.
