The six, actually there are seven (my error) were identified in my study. Tharp & Gallimore (1999) in Rousing Minds to Life: Teaching, Learning, and Schooling in Social Contexts, did some original research on the types of assistance that teachers can give students as they pass through the ZPD to independence. They documented that feedback is the most effective way of shifting behavior. As I observed the teachers in the study, I found different types of feedback, for example 'feedback that confirms'. This could involve the teacher simply saying, "mmmm", giving a nod of the head, saying "uh-huh" or even restating what the child said. This kind of feedback was used to show the child they were on the right track. If the teacher didn't give this feedback, most students would stop in their tracks, look up, etc. Hopefully, this is the thread or resource you were after. If not, let me know if I can help you further. jb ----- Original Message ----- From: Deb Green<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2008 7:32 AM Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] guided reading training
I was trying to search the thread to find out the resource / research that is quoted here specific to the teachers feedback (6 kinds) during Guided Reading Strategy instruction. I would like to read the document. Please point me in the right direction. Thanks > > > > > Your welcome, Elisa. You most likely can get it from a local university > (wherever you do research).
