| Abstract: |
When teachers provide opportunities for thoughtful learning, students will demonstrate the insight resulting from deep understanding of subject matter. Three methods of teaching for understanding include teaching with mental models, coaching for understanding performances, and teaching for transfer. These approaches also help reconnect the curriculum. (29 references) (MLH) |
