Increasing Student Engagement: 3 Evidence-based Instructional Strategies Lori Rayburn-Dehart, BCBA Behavior Consultant KEDC Big East Cooperative
OutcomesParticipants will be able to describe the impact of opportunities to respond on student outcomes Participants will be able to implement effective strategies that actively engage learners in instruction
Shortly after science class started, the teacher announced, “We have a small block of ice and the same sized block of butter. Tell your neighbor which one would melt first.” A few seconds later the teacher said, “Please write down in one sentence, an explanation for your answer.” A few minutes later, the teacher told students to share with their neighbor what they had written. Shortly thereafter, the teacher called on one student to tell the class her answer. The teacher then asked the class to raise their hand if they agreed with this answer. Then the teacher asked students to give a thumbs down if anyone disagreed, and so on. (Colvin, 2009, p. 48)
Evidence-Based Practices1. Maximize structure2. Post, teach, review, monitor, and reinforce a small number of positively stated expectations3. Active engagement4. Acknowledge appropriate behaviors5. Establish continuum of strategies to respond to inappropriate behavior Evidence-based Practices in Classroom Management: Considerations for Research to Practice Simonsen , Brandi; Fairbanks, Sarah; Briesch , Amy; Myers, Diane; Sugai , George Aug 1, 2008 Education & Treatment of Children

Lesson: Teach-Okay Read a detailed description of the Teach-Okay at: http://wholebrainteaching.com/Whole-Brain-Teching/First-Steps/Whole-Brain-Developer-Teach-OK.html
When I say “Class!,” you say “Yes!” Class! Students answer, “Yes!”
However I say “Class!” that’s how you say “Yes!” Class! Class! Students answer, “Yes! Yes!”
Classity Class! Students answer, “Yesity! Yes!”
Class-a-doodle-do! Students answer, “Yes-a-doodle-do!”
Now, let’s learn about the Teach-Okay. Please have fun!
Class! Students answer, “Yes!”
Teach! Students answer, “Okay!” When I say “Teach!” you say “Okay!”
Teach! Students clap twice and answer, “Okay!” If I clap twice and say “Teach,” you clap twice and say “Okay!” Clap Clap
Class! Students answer, “Yes!”
Teach! Students clap twice and answer, “Okay!” Let’s try that again ... only faster! Clap Clap
Academic Learning Time is… The time that students are directly engaged in meaningful activities that are related to the curriculum sequence and have successful outcomes.
Dr. Terry Scott talks about the Probability Equation
Opportunities To Respond (OTR)The number of times the teacher provides academic requests that require students to actively respond (Miller, 2009; Sprick, Knight, Reinke, & McKale , 2006) A teacher behavior that prompts or solicits a student response ( Simonsen et al., 2008)) Result in positive behavioral and academic outcomes Allows teacher insight
Benefits of OTR High rates of OTR can lead to improved academic performance. This is a result of improved student engagement and effective instruction. Student Engagement Effective Instruction Academic Performance
Related to BehaviorIncreases student engagement with instructionAllows for high rates of positive, specific feedback related to behaviorLimits time for engaging in inappropriate behaviorResults in more effective use of instructional time
Related to AcademicsCan be used as a quick assessment to guide teaching/lesson directionProvides teacher information on student understanding/thought processAllows teacher to correct errors in knowledge/understandingEvidence of gains in Reading and Math (e.g. mastery, rate, etc.)
Easy as ABCAAntecedent B Behavior C Consequence Teacher Provides: Question, Prompt, Cue Student Response or Behavior Teacher Provides Feedback (Specific & Positive)
Class! Students answer, “Yes!”
Teach! Students clap twice and answer, “Okay!” and then using gestures , teach their neighbors the about Opportunities to Respond If I clap twice and say “Teach,” you clap twice and say “Okay!” Then turn to your neighbors and teach them about opportunities to respond! Remember to use your gestures! Clap Clap
Class! Students answer, “Yes!”
Teach! Students clap twice and answer, “Okay!” and then using BIG GESTURES , teach their neighbors about Opportunities to Respond. Try it again. Teach your neighbor about opportunties to respond... with BIG GESTURES! Clap Clap
Teach! Students clap twice and answer, “Okay!” and then using BIG GESTURES , teach their neighbors about Opportunities to Respond. One more time. Use a FULL TURN. Teach your neighbor about Opportunities to Respond ... with BIG GESTURES! Clap Clap
Classity Class Students answer, “Yesity! Yes!”
From now on, the little sign below will be used for the “clap, clap teach!” Students answer, “Yesity! Yes!” Students clap twice and answer, “Okay!” and then tell their neighbors about the little sign. Teach ! Clap Clap

Types of OTRVerbal--Involves vocal output vs.Non-Verbal--Involves action (no verbalizations) Individual —by oneself vs. Group —with others or while others do it
Opportunity to RespondVerbalNon-Verbal Orally answering a question, sharing thoughts, summarizing, repeating, Writing Performing an action Moving about room
High Quality FeedbackTimelySpecificRelated to ResponseTargetedInformative
Verbal OTRIndividual Question/Response PatternChoral Responding
Individual vs. Group OTRIndividualAllows teacher to know what EACH student thinks; targeted Group Provides ALL students the opportunity to answer without “risk”; engages everyone
Elements of choral respondingStudents must be able to: respond with short, one to three word, a nswers , and only one correct answer is ideal.
Enhancing Effectiveness of Choral Respondingthe teacher, providing a thinking pause, using a clear signal of when to respond, provide feedback, and from time to time call on individual students
How To Implement Choral Responding - Brief “Choral Responding”Model the question and the way to respondAsk a clear question with a single word or simple phrase answer Give a clear signal for students to respond (allow think time for difficult responses) Scan all mouths to assure all are responding, moving near non-responders Give feedback on the group response Fast- pace

Guided NotesLecture outlines with spaces where students write definitions, facts, and/or concepts during instruction
Why Use Guided Notes?Guided Notes increase students’ active engagement with course content. To complete their Guided Notes, students must actively respond to the lecture’s content by listening, looking, thinking, and writing .
Why Use Guided Notes?Students who make frequent , lesson-relevant responses learn more than students who are passive observers.
Why Use Guided Notes?Students can more easily identify the most important information. Students are more likely to ask the instructor questions . Students earn higher quiz and exam scores with Guided Notes.
Why Use Guided Notes?Guided Notes can serve as an advance organizer for students.Guided Notes help teachers prioritize and limit lecture content. Guided Notes content can be easily converted into formative and summative assessments. Clap Clap TEACH!
Frequently Asked Questions About Guided NotesQ: Isn’t providing students with guided notes making it too easy for them? Are we just “spoon-feeding” them the information?Q: Why not just pass out an outline of my lecture or a copy of the guided notes already completed?

Response CardA response card requires a student to write a brief answer to a question.
Response CardCan be used throughout your entire lesson.Each response is meant to be QUICK! Can be used as a formative assessment. Can invite individual oral response, pair share &/or Table Talk
Response CardElicit active responses from all students simultaneously;Demonstrate student understanding of the information taught; and Make informed instructional decisions based on students responses.
Procedures for Response Cards1. Train students in the use of their response cards.“Jot Down Your Answers” – Students write their answers.“Cards Up” – Students raise response cards above their heads, facing teacher. “Cards Down” – Students place response cards face down. 2. After new material has been introduced write their responses on their cards. 3. prompt students as a class to hold their response cards above their heads. 4. Provide praise and/or corrective feedback for student responses. Use Positive Responding – If all answers are correct, provide praise to the class. If some answers are correct, praise the correct response.5. Interchange questions that are review with questions that relate to new material.
Examples“Yes/True” on one side and “No/False” on the other A, B, C, D cards for multiple choice questions Cards with subject-specific terms (parts of speech, scientific classifications, historical periods, formulas, etc.)

Response Card After watching the video… Which multiple response strategy would you use to foster student engagement and why?
Consider this …If response cards were used instead of handraising for just 30 minutes per day, each student would make more than 3,700 additional academic responses during the school year.
Response CardLet’s Make and Take
Opportunities to RespondWhat it is…ALL students are doing, answering, speaking, writing, signaling, performing… showing in some way that they have interacted with the instruction. Teacher Prompts: Think about…Tell your partner Everyone, say the word Everyone write, then show Tell your partner how many steps there are in… You just heard a lot of information. Think about the three main elements. Tell your partner why these elements are important to…
For Monday…Think about what you have heard today. Is there anything that you can use?What can be (easily) implemented into your own classroom/setting?How will you use/do this?What do you wish would have been included in the presentation or what do you wish there would have been more about?
“In the end, which of these active participation or passage-reading procedures you select is less important than offering a large number of opportunities to respond and keeping ALL students involved. To be truly effective, instruction must be interactive. This constant involvement not only improves learning, but also reduces management problems and makes instruction more enjoyable for both the students and the teacher.” Archer and Hughes (2011) p. 172.
