The Standards for Effective Pedagogy and Learning

The Standards for Effective Pedagogy and Learning were established through CREDE research, and through an extensive analysis of the research and development literature in education and diversity. The Standards represent recommendations on which the literature is in agreement, across all cultural, racial, and linguistic groups in the United States, all age levels, and all subject matters. Thus, they express the principles of effective pedagogy for all students. Even for mainstream students, the Standards describe the ideal conditions for instruction; but for students at-risk of educational failure, effective classroom implementation of the Standards is vital. The research consensus can be expressed as five standards.

 

I Joint Productive Activity  
  Teacher and Students Producing Together
II Language Development
  Developing Language and Literacy Across the Curriculum
III Contextualization
  Making Meaning: Connecting School to Students' Lives
IV Challenging Activities
  Teaching Complex Thinking
V Instructional Conversation
  Teaching Through Conversation
