Publisher's Synopsis
"Competency-based education (CBE) is an effective means of ensuring growth and learning for all students. To maximize the potential of this framework, teachers should employ instructional strategies purposefully designed for CBE classrooms. In Teaching in a Competency-Based Elementary School: The Marzano Academies Model, authors Robert J. Marzano and Seth D. Abbott introduce a model of instruction for elementary teachers facilitating student learning, supporting individual growth, and fostering community in CBE systems. Based on decades of research, as well as practical experience in Marzano Academies schools, this book offers a detailed breakdown of the Marzano Academies instructional model, including its four primary domains, ten design areas, and forty-nine elements of effective teaching. Elementary teachers seeking to adopt or adapt the tenets of CBE can rely on this definitive guide"--.
