How does engaging students in goal setting and monitoring help them remain committed to learning?
It keeps the brain from reverting to low-effort mode.
It helps them train their brains to expect dopamine rewards from effortful thinking.
It helps students see effort is the key to success.
All of the above.
Which statement is true regarding direct instruction?
Direct instruction is not an effective method for teaching students new processes or skills.
Self-discovery and error is an efficient way to automate new processes and skills.
The process of automation is made easier and more efficient through initial direct instruction.
It is safe to assume students will naturally discover on their own new processes and skills.
Which of the following is a guiding principle for high-level questions and student explanations:
Questions that prompt students to think about their learning support better learning outcomes.
Encouraging students to explain their own thinking supports consolidation of new learning.
Cold-calling techniques are more effective than voluntary response techniques.
All of the above are guiding principles.
Which curiosity hook is an example of the following: “One way to reduce greenhouse gases would be to build nuclear power plants. After exploring the pros and cons of this energy source, what do you think?”

C) It is unnecessary to illustrate abstract ideas with concrete examples.
D) Schematics are more powerful when teachers provide them to students rather than having students create their own.
Which form of feedback provides students with the most benefit according to research:
A) Delayed feedback (ex. Providing correct answers at the end of an assignment)
B) Correct-response immediate feedback (ex. Providing “scratch-off” access to correct answers to multiple choice questions)
C) Multiple-try immediate feedback (ex. Providing incorrect answers with a “try again” message)

A) All students learn at the same pace.
B) Intelligence is fixed and unchangeable.

Which example of peer-assisted learning activities has research shown can virtually eliminate student failure on subsequent content tests?
Numbered heads together
Think-write-pair-share
Reciprocal teaching
Homogeneous grouping
According to Chapter 2, which statement is a guiding principle for student goal setting and monitoring?
Concrete, achievable goals are not effective for straightforward tasks.
To be effective, goals can be vague as long as feedback is specific.
Progress feedback (progress monitoring) has no impact on the effectiveness of goal setting.
Students should set mastery (not performance) goals.
