-----------------------

 

TALKING TO LEARN

 

1. Maximize student tell-backs.

2. Maximize writing.

 

Use oral recitation and inner speech.

 

Why?

 

Speech is the fastest way

to make your mind accountable.

 

(Inner speech may be 2-4000

words per minute or more).

 

(Speaking aloud, 150 - 300

words per minute).

 

Speech forces your mind

to use your thinking skills

(taxonomy for thinking.)

 

Talk to yourself as

you make notes

on memory patterns.

 

Add to your pattern

while your partner is speaking.

 

You are restating words

with inner speech

as your partner says them.

 

Your partner's words help you

 re-organize your notes

 

The speaking is a rehearsal

for the fastwrite.

-----------------------

 

TALK TO REMEMBER

 

The mind stores

most information auditorily.

 

Short-term auditory memory

is three-quarters of a second.

 

Short-term visual memory

is one-quarter of a second.

 

Short-term semantic memory

is one or two seconds.

 

Short-term memory transfers

to long-term memory

if you write notes continuously

during the recorded input.

-----------------------

 

WRITE TO LEARN

 

1. Writing notes on memory patterns

requires use of inner speech,

and so helps build memory.

 

2. Write notes during your partner's

tell-back.

 

3. The fastwrite forces you

to continue the reorganizing

and storing process.

-----------------------

 

LIMIT TEACHER TALKING

SO STUDENTS CAN TALK

 

Allow students

to tell-back to partners:

 

  1. Immediately after input

and before memory decay.

 

  1. Tell-back from notes

or memory patterns

that re-trigger the input.

 

  1. Tell-back from their

prior knowledge.

 

Teachers listen to students

in order to gauge their ability.

 

Teachers score their students

during fast-writes.

 

Teachers who talk

limit their students'

recitation opportunities.

-----------------------

 

PROBLEMS IF TEACHERS

INSIST ON TALKING

 

1. Students' watching the teacher
