•A system of major objectivesbroken down into smaller units of objectives, skills, and tests, that are in a sequence for mastery of the whole set.

Page 4: MASTERY LEARNING

What is the focus of Mastery Learning?

YES, break down all the information into pieces,

then systematically bring them back together

again.

Page 6: MASTERY LEARNING

Give some descriptions of how a

student should PRACTICE

in Mastery Learning:

Page 7: MASTERY LEARNING

PRACTICE

Page 8: MASTERY LEARNING

PRACTICE• •small amounts• •short, intense practice

periods• •frequently for new info.• •regularly for old info.• •repeated practice

Page 9: MASTERY LEARNING

Relate this PRACTICE

strategy to your own life?• •small amounts

• •short, intense practice periods

• •frequently for new info.• •regularly for old info.• •repeated practice

What else does the teacher focus on during PRACTICE?

Page 11: MASTERY LEARNING

What else does the teacher focus on during PRACTICE?• •MONITOR students to make sure

they are not practicing mistakes, especially at the beginning.

• •GIVE SPECIFIC FEEDBACK AND RESULTS, immediately.

• •EXPECT HIGH ACCURACY 90% before student moves on to next sequenced skill or lesson.

Mastery Learning builds on the

VALUE of PRACTICE

“PRACTICE IMPROVES PERFORMANCE”

Page 13: MASTERY LEARNING

More and more PRACTICE and

TEACHING• •ENDLESS OPPORTUNITIES for

practice until mastery is achieved….• •RE-TEACHING STRATEGIES to fit

a variety of learning modalities, intelligences, students’ strengths and needs.

• •MOTIVATIONAL STRATEGIES to make experiences meaningful for every individual!

• (Mastery teachers KNOW their students).

Page 14: MASTERY LEARNING

The TEACHER aggressively

reinforces previous learning, as new

information is added.••Continuously REVIEWS the older material to tie it all together.

Page 15: MASTERY LEARNING

How would you be a mastery teacher,

and continuously review older

material, regularly?

Page 16: MASTERY LEARNING

BELL WORK? MATH?

••SOLVING 3-4 PROBLEMS WRITTEN ON THE BOARD TO REVIEW BASIC COMPUTATIONAL

OPERATIONS?

Page 17: MASTERY LEARNING

BELL WORK? ENGLISH?

•Daily Journal prompts: How would you describe a good

friend?

Page 18: MASTERY LEARNING

BELL WORK? ENGLISH?• •D.O.L.

•Daily Oral Language: Writing sentences on the board with grammatical errors and fixing them .

Page 19: MASTERY LEARNING

Social Studies?

• •D.O.M.•Daily Oral MAPS:

Projecting an outline map on the screen/board and locating countries.

Page 20: MASTERY LEARNING

weekly Current Events?

Page 21: MASTERY LEARNING

What would be the most important,

basic, foundational,

“must-know” skills that you would definitely

want your students to KNOW when

theyexited your class?

Page 22: MASTERY LEARNING

A mastery teacher identifies, in

advance, ways to demonstrate

learning outcomes to students.

WHAT IS

IMPORTANT?

Page 23: MASTERY LEARNING
Page 24: MASTERY LEARNING

… Learning outcomes that are

very similar to a Marzano-designed, backwards mapping

unit.

Page 25: MASTERY LEARNING

A Marzano-designed, unit is one way to help the mastery

teacher determine whether individual

students are mastering the

content.

Page 26: MASTERY LEARNING
Page 27: MASTERY LEARNING

Mastery Learning can be very SELF-DIRECTED and SELF- PACED.

Page 28: MASTERY LEARNING

Students cannot move to the next skill in

sequence until they have mastered with

a 90% accuracy. This takes

PRACTICE and RE-TEACHING in a new

and more diverse way.

Page 29: MASTERY LEARNING

Mastery Learning helps students

extend their thinking to levels of

analysis, synthesis and evaluation,

which enables them to transfer

meaning from one subject to another.

Page 30: MASTERY LEARNING

How could you integrate Mastery Learning in your

instruction?

Page 31: MASTERY LEARNING

What are the pros and cons about

letting students keep trying until they ‘get

it’ ? What is your opinion on

learners who master skills at their own

developmental pace and time?
