Instructional strategies are techniques teachers use to help students become independent, strategic learners.
These strategies become learning strategies when students independently select the appropriate ones and use them effectively to accomplish tasks or meet goals.
. Instructional strategies can
- Motivate students and help them focus attention
- Organize information for understanding and remembering
- Monitor and assess learning.
To become successful strategic learner’s students, need:
- Step-by-step strategy instruction
- A variety of instructional approaches and learning materials
- Appropriate support that includes modelling, guided practice and independent practice
- Opportunities to transfer skills and ideas from one situation to another
- Meaningful connections between skills and ideas, and real-life situations
- Opportunities to be independent and show what they know
- Encouragement to self-monitor and self-correct
- Tools for reflecting on and assessing own learning.
