R - Require Learner Participation
Key components of require learner participation
- In this step the teacher is focsued on how to engage the class and individual students.
- How will the students participate?
- discussion
- an activity
- a presentation
- This step also focuses on how students will learn the inforamtion presented.
Next
E - Evaluate & Revise
Key components of evaluating and revising
- This is the final step. In this step the teacher will evaluate student learning.
- This isn't just an evaluation of what students mastered but also an evaulation on teaching practices, technology, media, and the materials that were used.
- Evaluation methods: formative, summative, quizzes, surveys, feedback,e tc
- Student feedback is also an important part of this model. It is important to know and understand what the learners thought of this process.
- From there it is time to revise your work. This is the step where the teacher will make changes and alter the lesson/unit

Module 3
Summarizing the ASSURE model
Objective 3: Given the resources outlining the steps to the ASSURE model, the learner will summarize each of the six steps of the ASSURE model in their own words with 80% accuracy.
Start
Understanding the ASSURE model
You are a fourth grade science teacher getting ready to start a unit on Earth's systems. First you take time to access prior knowledge, identify the characteristics of your learners and determine their needs for this unit.
Understanding the ASSURE model
Before beginning the unit, the teacher looked at the state standards that would be addressed during this unit. After deciding what standards to use, she then created learning objectives of what the students should be able to do at the end of the unit.
Understanding the ASSURE model
Throughout the unit, the teacher gave several formative assessments. At the end of the unit, the teacher gave a summative assessment to see what the students learned. She also gave each student an attitude survey to gather feedback of the unit from the class.
Understanding the ASSURE model
After looking at the unit plans for Earth's Systems, the teacher planned out the technology, media and any other materials she would be using. She decided for technology that she would be using Chromebooks for online readings. She would be using hands-on materials for science experiments and several videos to show erosion and its effects.
Understanding the ASSURE model
After stating the standards and objectives the teacher has now selected the strategies she would be using. Teaching strategies would include hands-on experience, discussions, group work and notes. She will be using student Chromebooks for online portions of the unit. Any other materials she uses will be printed and given out to the students.
Understanding the ASSURE model
Now that the teacher has everything planned out she needs to decide how the students will participate. Students will have 2-3 experiments to complete. These experiments will involve the students working together in groups. Students will also complete several graphic organizers on the unit and contribute to multiple class discussions.
