Engage--The task is introduced. Using connections to past learning, demonstrations of an event, and asking pointed questions, the teacher can spark the students' interest right away. Explore-While the teacher facilitates, students take part in hands-on activities that allow them to work with materials. Questioning, sharing and communication with other learners should be encouraged during this stage. Explain-Here the focus is on analysis. Students are encouraged to put observations, questions, hypotheses, and experiences into language. Communication between students and groups will aid student learning. Again, the teacher is the facilitator, leading discussions, asking questions, giving definitions, of helping students find the right words to describe their experiences. Elaborate/Extend--Now students should be encouraged build and expand upon what they have learned so far, making deductions and inferences. They can apply what they have learned to real world situations. Evaluate--Evaluation should be ongoing and should occur at all stages, in order to determine that learning objectives have been met. The teacher can use any assessment tool that they deem appropriate. At this time the teacher should encourage further study that builds upon what has been learned. NEW!
