In Chapter 3, six action steps are discussed to give students opportunities to practice new skills and deepen their understanding of new information. Without this type of extended processing, knowledge that students initially understand might fade and be lost over time.
Please summarize each action step in your own words. Then explain how you would use each of these action steps with your students. Your document should be free of errors and in an easy to read format. A template is included to complete this assignment.
