2. Presenting new material. Research had shown that effective teachers of mathematics spent more time on presenting new material and guided practice than do less effective teacher (Evertson et al. 1980, Good and Grouws 1979). For example, in the Evertson study the most effective mathematics teachers spent about 23 minutes per day in lecture, demonstration, and discussion in contrast to 11 minutes for the least effective teachers. The effective teachers used this additional presentation time to give additional explanations and many examples, check for student understanding, and provide sufficient instruction so that the student could practice independently with minimal difficulty. In contrast, the less effective teachers gave much shorter presentations and explanations and then sent the student to independent practice. Under those conditions students were less successful because they were not yet ready for independent practice. Hence, they made too many errors and had to be retaught. | ||||||||||||
