Principles of Instruction

I’d like to recommend this article by Barak Rosenshine to colleagues: Principles of Instruction: Research-Based Strategies That All Teachers Should Know (PDF).

The article presents 10 research-based principles of instruction, along with suggestions for classroom practice. These principles come from three sources: (a) research in cognitive science, (b) research on master teachers, and (c) research on cognitive supports.
