EDUC 8130 - Investigating Obstacles to Achievement (IOA) SST2


3 cr.
This course builds on the foundations and conversations initiated in the Studying Skillful Teaching course. IOA focuses on the potential causes contributing to student under-performance and what teachers can do to improve classroom instruction. Participants use current research, video analysis, classroom experiments, case studies, readings and discussions to consider the most common causes of academic shutdown and strategies to help these students; use a wide range of classroom assessment techniques; research impact of student self-theories, stereotyping and teacher beliefs on student achievement; and design learning experiences that actively engage students to help them meet performance standards. This course is provided directly by Research for Better Teaching.
