1 SECED 138 A: Session 5 How does vocabulary shape content and vice- versa? Lara Ervin San Jose State University February 24, March 1 2011

2 Agenda: Pedagogical Content Knowledge (Shulman) v. Pedagogical Language Knowledge (Zweirs) Declarative and Procedural Knowledge BREAK Content Area Vocabulary: Brick and Mortar Terms Assignment Work Time: Group Teach Assignment (DUE Session 15/16!) Select Groups Select topic you want to teach the class Use Pedagogical Content/Language Knowledge to select a strategy!

3 Objectives (SWBAT): Develop an understanding of Pedagogical Content Knowledge (Shulman) and Pedagogical Language Knowledge (Zweirs) Examine the role of Declarative and Procedural Knowledge in specific content areas. Analyze Content Area Vocabulary for Brick and Mortar Terms as well as Expressions/Phrases to explicitly incorporate into teaching your content area. Create a mini-lesson teaching a concept from your content to the class. Listen to and ask questions about the theories of Pedagogical Content Knowledge and Pedagogical Language Knowledge. With 2 content area partners, complete a declarative and procedural chart of knowledge types in your content area. Review terms from the Marzano book and standards to begin to develop a list of brick, mortar and expressive phrases for your content area. Post ideas in a Google Document. Use online resources and strategies from the readings to create an activity that develops content literacy. ContentLanguage

4 Standards and Common Core… “Standards” refers to the adopted standards from 1997. Includes a framework that focuses on essential content skills. “Common Core” refers to national standards adopted in 2010. Focuses on math and English, will possibly have implications for other subjects…

5 Pedagogical Content Knowledge:

6 Pedagogical Language Knowledge: Discipline language Discipline knowledge/advancement

7 Types of Knowledge

8 What differentiates these types of knowledge? (discussion/brainstorm)

9 Two components of basic knowledge “ A” Knowledge Cell wall Aerobic The Battle of the Bulge Bill of Rights DNA Linear Equation Measure Shading “B” Knowledge Label a diagram Create an exercise plan Read a map Create a Timeline Test a hypothesis Slide into a base Conjugate a verb Factoring Tuning Sketching

10 Partner activity With a partner, come up with 2 more examples for each column, for your content area. Why would each be a good fit? Share out

11 Relationship between Declarative and Procedural Knowledge Most tasks require both types of knowledge. What learners know or understand about the topic can be the primary factor in a student’s success on a task. Sometimes students have difficulty with processes because they lack context/ content. Not understanding characteristics of procedures can lead to a limited understanding and use of those procedures.

12 Discussion Why is it important to know the difference between declarative and procedural knowledge?

13 Declarative Knowledge Constructing Meaning, Organizing and Storing information

14 Answer the following: Who sailed the ocean blue in 1492? What two elements make up water? What do we call words like “boom” and “splash”? Who painted the Mona Lisa? Who are John, Paul, Ringo and George? What operation do you use to find the difference? How many innings are in a regular baseball game?

15 Phases of Declarative Knowledge Store knowledge Organize Information Construct Meaning

16 Procedural Knowledge Construction of Models, Shaping and Internalizing Processes

17 What is it? The Procedure is actually quite simple. First, you arrange items into different groups. Of course, one pile may be sufficient depending on how much there is to do. If you have to go somewhere else due to the lack of facilities, that is the next step; otherwise, you are pretty well set. It is important not to overdo things. That is, it is better to do too few things at once than too many. In the short run, this may not seem important, but complications can easily arise. A mistake can be expensive as well. At first, the whole procedure will seem complicated. Soon, however, it will become just another facet of life., It is difficult to foresee any end to the necessity for this task in the immediate future, but then, one can never tell. After the procedure is complete, you arrange the materials into different groups again. Then you can put them into their appropriate places. Eventually, they will be used again, and the whole cycle will then have to be repeated. However, that is part of life.

18 Phases of Procedural Knowledge (“How to”) Shape Internalize/Practice Construct Models

19 What knowledge is emphasized in your content area? CHART: DISTRIBUTION OF DECLARATIVE AND PROCEDURAL KNOWLEDGE by per cent Subject AreaDeclarative %Procedural % Science__ Mathematics__ Geography__ Language Arts__ History__ (%). Think of science, mathematics, geography, language arts, and history in terms of declarative and procedural knowledge. (If your subject is not listed, please still do the activity so you can gain understanding of the process.)

20 DISTRIBUTION OF DECLARATIVE AND PROCEDURAL KNOWLEDGE http://www.learnercentereded.org/Courses/UAICS/Module2.htm Subject AreaDeclarative %Procedural % Science928 Mathematics4951 Geography982 Language Arts2476 History973

21 BREAK When we come back, please sit in content-alike groups of 2-4.

22 Content Specific Vocabulary “Brick” Terms Technical words specific to a discipline “Tier Three” Gets more complex the deeper you go into the content Concrete to abstract Often consists of acronyms or “shorthand” “Mortar” Terms General utility words “Tier Two” Connective and task- specific Abstract terms Untaught or unseen

23 You will be creating a list of terms in a Google Doc for the next 2 weeks. Tonight: Work with a small team (3-4 people) Review the terms in the Marzano text Review with the framework of ONE course in mind Refer to content standards if necessary: http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/st /ss/index.asp http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/st /ss/index.asp Over the next two weeks: Continue to work with the Marzano text Participate in the Google Document for your subject area Reference released CST test questions Reference the frameworks: http://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/c r/cf/allfwks.asp http://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/c r/cf/allfwks.asp

24 With a few content-alike partners begin to review the lists in Marzano’s Text. SELECT ONE COURSE you might be asked to teach. FOCUS on this one course. What terms are absolutely, positively “Brick” foundation terms? What “mortar” terms do you think might be needed to help support the “bricks?” Are there any essential phrases you can think of that come up often in your content area? Check out the released CST test questions for your content: http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/sr/css05rtq.asp http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/sr/css05rtq.asp

(Presentation, Explanation, Activity, Handout, Assessment) You will have 20 minutes for your lesson. Need to meet with Lara to review your plan prior to the presentation. Will be partially graded by the class…
