I almost hate to do it because of all the misconceptions surrounding the term, but… ✨ This is your annual reminder that constructivism, as a theory of learning, shows us why building content knowledge is so important. Great walk thru an example by @DanWuori👇🏼

@Suchmo83 I was most influenced by this study by Williams et al. (2016) when designing my study. It showed positive effects on comprehension when teaching text structure vs. a content only approach and a BAU control. psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi…
Pay attention
@Suchmo83 I conducted an experimental study comparing two approaches that both involved meaningful engagement with the same texts under same conditions. I found benefits on proximal measures when instruction focused on text structure vs. question answering. tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

"Reading #strategies should not be the focus of teaching #reading #comprehension. Instead, they should be used in service of teaching students new content." Great article by @tiffany_peltier. Must-read for teachers.

I especially appreciate @tiffany_peltier’s focus on the highest-leverage comprehension strategies. 👏 And the way she reinforces that students should be using these strategies in service of knowledge acquisition…. Not in service of using-strategies-for-their-own-sake:

why is note taking so hard? incredible presentation by @DTWillingham
“When we can combine skill AND content into knowledge building = winning IMO…” Yes, @kyairb 🤩🤩🤩
Facts. Doubt many of my kids will say we wrote objective summaries but instead will likely summarize the text we read but not the nuance of the skill. When we can combine skill AND content into knowledge building = winning IMO
Some of the ways I get kindergarteners writing this way is.. ✏️start with oral language ✏️model, model, model ✏️tie to content knowledge ✏️focus on syntax ✏️incorporate vocabulary (transform) Today we wrote about “Harlem Grown”
@tiffany_peltier @DanWuori I love this because it illustrates that children are not empty vessels- they are active meaning makers that are continually refining their understanding and using input from all their experiences to build their own knowledge.
One of the things I love most about my job is working with doctoral students, so this was a real honor!
Holly Lane, director of @UFLiteracy, received the 2023-2024 UF Faculty Doctoral Mentoring Award for her outstanding dedication to guiding doctoral students with innovative strategies. education.ufl.edu/news/2024/04/2…
@DennisDill @MrZachG Yes! There's a lovely🧵re Vygotsky’s ZPD that starts w/ @tiffany_peltier’s post on constructivism. I will be reading to fill my own gaps. Malpractice of theory struck ed again. Z clearly stated that when children are ready, appropriate assistance helps them achieve.
Truthfully, this decision cost our family money. We grew up on the bottom cusp of lower middle class. But looking back, My childhood was the greatest! I never had the newest anything. We didn’t dine at fancy places or take extravagant vacations. MY DAD WAS MY HERO THOUGH!
Young children are like scientists - constantly testing their theories about the world. Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget is revered in education circles as the father of “constructivism” - which is a theory that young children create knowledge by connecting new experiences with…
@tiffany_peltier @jzstrong “main idea, text structure, and retell, taught together as the primary strategies, seemed the most effective; and the effects of strategies only held when background knowledge instruction was included.”
@amyWSL @tiffany_peltier Of course! I'm glad you and your colleague have found it useful for your students.
@tiffany_peltier @jzstrong @jzstrong thanks for sharing your work!
@tiffany_peltier @jzstrong I came across Strong’s work last year and we tried the routine co-teaching in a Grade 3 class with a colleague. We learned so much together as a team and the comprehension and engagement of the kids flourished!
I’m so glad people are finally having this discussion. I wrote 2 books in the early 2000s about teaching text structure and using structure to help summarize. It has been so helpful for students. Yay!
See our episode about teaching text structure along with gist and summarization. The Literacy View ep. 69 👇 @BoksnerJudy podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
Worthy read. Teach comprehension within subjects with informational text and teach how to find the meaning this way. Great idea on library collection development to support specific grades with appropriate text ~ like comprehension mentor texts for specific subjects.
My newest article out today, featuring an interview w/@natwexler: "We need to rethink our approach to reading comprehension," nwea.org/blog/2024/the-…
@tiffany_peltier *text … I’m sure you got me!
@tiffany_peltier Also the cumulative impact that we can all have … when a district goes about teaching tech structured systematically!!!
@AmandaMGoetz My husband started a rule that no electronics are allowed in his truck — so boys riding to and from sports practices have to put them away. We literally had one family stop using the carpool so their son could use his phone for the 10 minute drive 🫤 Enforce the rule!
@Suchmo83 I was most influenced by this study by Williams et al. (2016) when designing my study. It showed positive effects on comprehension when teaching text structure vs. a content only approach and a BAU control. psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi…
@Suchmo83 Teaching text structure improves reading comprehension. It's not just strategies vs. content knowledge. Many experimental studies and meta-analyses confirm this (Bogaerds-Hazenberg et al., 2022; Hebert et al., 2016; Peng et al., 2023; Pyle et al., 2016). Happy to share links!
@Suchmo83 I conducted an experimental study comparing two approaches that both involved meaningful engagement with the same texts under same conditions. I found benefits on proximal measures when instruction focused on text structure vs. question answering. tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…
