Jigsaw Strategy: A Resource File for Effective Content Learning Part 1: Strategy Criteria 1. Flexibility: The selected strategies should have the ability to be applied in various content areas and grade levels. 2. Research-based: The strategies

JIGSAW STRATEGY (ONLY NEED ONE)
Objectives: 
To become familiar with resources available to support content learning
To recognize & select high standard criteria for selecting strategies to support content learning
Rationale:
Students are naturally motivated by the implementation of effective learning strategies. Teachers who wish to increase learning research, select, and reflect about the strategies they choose to support their content curriculum. 
Instructions:
Create your strategy file in Microsoft Word. Follow the formatting rules of APA style.
This file will be a resource for you in the classroom. Include strategies that will help you teach many lessons, not just one. For example, the vocabulary cards strategy can be used in multiple content areas, can meet the needs of students with varied learning styles, and can serve as a form of assessment. Similarly, Cornell Notes are applicable across the curriculum and increase the rigor and higher order thinking level of note taking.
Be sure to look for strategies with great flexibility and usefulness and that can be used multiple times with different content applications. Proven strategies work best when students know how they work and focus on the learning rather than the “rules” for the strategy. 
Part 1. Strategy Criteria: Resources for Website Criteria are listed below these directions on Moodle. You are not limited to these resources. Feel free to research and select strategies that you know about or that you find in your subject area. The strategies you select for your bibliography will be rated based on their appropriateness and support for your grade level and content subject area. Select strategies that you are learning about or researching this summer.
Part 2. Annotated Bibliographies: The annotated bibliography is a collection of researched sources that support your topic –in this case, the topic is strategies for your teaching this coming school year. You will be expected to use the strategies you include in this work, so be sure you understand each of them completely. Reflective reports of their implementations will be part of your seminar expectations.
