Experience a teaching model, developed by Madeline Hunter, based on the principle that teaching is a series of decisions made by the teacher. The basic ITIP course is designed to increase teachers' knowledge of classroom practices concerning the effective and efficient use of instructional time. This course will provide information the teacher needs to consider when making decisions about the content to teach, the way to teach it, how to check to see if it has been learned and techniques to use to help students remember. The class will address motivation and strategies to increase the rate and degree of learning. This class translates the theory of instruction into classroom practice.
