Pre-service, beginning, and experience teachers alike can turn to this comprehensive resource for help in expanding their instructional repertoires through instructional models presented within a standards-based and instructionally aligned process. The authors present 10 evidence-based instructional models and their variations offering a range of cognitive approaches to instruction–creative, compliant, collaborative, competitive, inductive, deductive, concrete, and abstract. Each model is discussed using helpful elementary and secondary examples, a variety of academic content areas, detailed steps for implementation, and a look at the demands on students. The new edition of Instruction: A Models Approach includes several features that support the development of instructional skills: chapters move from concrete models to abstract (simple to more complex) to build a clearer understanding of the ideas, video examples and instructional strategies illustrate the concepts, and extension activities offer practice with important new information and skills. The result is a classroom-ready resource that makes instructional models clear and relevant for readers within a standards-based and instructionally aligned process. The Enhanced Pearson eText features embedded video and internet resources.
