Think-Pair-Share
1. Make a list of student behaviors you don’t want to see in your classroom.
2. Compare with a partner3. I will call on you to report to the group:
what behaviors would you like to prevent.
Teacher poses question, observation or challenge
Classroom issues
Distractions• Texting• Sleeping• Talking (to each other,
on the phone)• Being tardy to class,
coming back late from break
Problem Behaviors• Bad attitude• Disrespect of teacher/
self/others
Solutions
1. Relationship building – phone calls, emails, websites to share info– RESPECT the students.
2. Engaging the students in valuable learning tasks
– Interactive classroom strategies– Vary your teaching styles!

Factual knowledge, or specific skills. Sometimes you need to give the learner some
information.
Questions to ask: Name 3 mechanisms by which you could get osteomyelitis.

Suggestive teaching style
Suggestive Style: Asks leading questions..
Examples 1. What germs cause osteomyelitis? 2. Which antibiotics kill those germs? 3. How well do those ABT’s penetrate bone? 4. What are the side effects of the antibiotics?
Who’s working: Teacher is organizing it for the student. Teacher is leading the student down a path.*
Deals with: (or useful for developing):
Opinion or uncertainty. Helps with clinical thinking.
When we ask… …We are using the
suggestive style.
Compare and contrast osteo and SA When would you order a bone scan vs. a
plain film in a patient with suspected osteomeylitis?

Benefits of Suggestive Questions
Teacher’s experience Learner’s experience Assertive Suggestive Collaborative Facilitative
Collaborative Style: Asks open, exploratory questions.
Example: What ABT’s would you use to treat osteo?
Who’s working:
Student is organizing it. Focus of control is more with the student
than the teacher.
Deals with: (or useful for developing):
Opinion or uncertainty. Helps with clinical thinking..
Questions to ask: What’s your assessment and plan?
Collaborative teaching style

Name some mechanisms by which you get osteo? [Suggestive/Activating Prior Knowledge]Why did this patient get osteo? [Collaborative]Now why do you think he got osteo? Where do kids usually get osteo? Why? [Suggestive]
AssertiveDid you see how I thought that thru? [Explicit]
Utilizing Suggestive & Collaborative
1 Joint effort between the teacher and learner.

• “Verbal Teaching Styles” are value-neutral.
• No one style is unqualifiedly better or worse than another.
• Each “Teaching Style” has its own advantages and usefulness.
• The Key is flexibility.

Budgeting Instructional Time
4 blocks of 50 minutes each• Sample lesson plan
– 5 min reviewing past material (yes, only 5)
– 10 minutes introducing concepts
– 30 minute activity USING the concepts/terminology
– 5 minute debrief – check for understanding.
– 10 minute break
Other options?• 1hr intro/practice• 2hr Use/activity• 1 hr debrief,
test/assess understanding
Objectives!!!• Never lose sight of what
the student must know and how they can show you what they know.
Basic Tenets
1. Make ‘em USE their knowledge. Don’t “keep ‘em busy”
2. Only give assignments you’ve done/tested yourself – if you can’t do it they can’t.
3. Its not about getting through material, its about getting the material through.
Activity Options
Group Work• Project based
learning. • Give them REAL tasks
from their field/Problems to solve.
• Require write-up/presentation
Jigsaw• Choose an activity from
the MI list handout• Research it• Adapt it to your field/
one specific class (make it USEABLE for you!)
• Explain it to the group.
Techniques for Active Learning
• Exercises for Individual Students
• Questions and Answers• Immediate Feedback • Critical Thinking
Motivators • Share/Pair • Cooperative Learning
Exercises
Games in the classroom
Vocabulary Games• Pictionary• “20 questions”, tell the
truth• Password• Wheel of Fortune
Fact Response Games• Family Feud• Jeopardy• $25,000 Pyramid• Millionaire• Match game
Answering questions/Multiple answers games• Relay races• Baseball• Football• Soccer
Parting Words
• Be Positive, Passionate, Personable and Prepared!
• Plan – write a lesson-plan script if you want!• Be flexible – come with a full tool box. • Reflect on your teaching - if something isn’t
working, change it! Even during the class.
