Twenty reliable, flexible strategies (along with dozens of variations) are organized into these groups of instruction: В В·ВВВВВВВ mastery style to emphasize the development of student memory; В·ВВВВВВВ understanding style to expand students’ capacities to reason and explain; В·ВВВВВВВ self-expressive style to stimulate and nourish students’ imaginations and creativity; В·ВВВВВВВ interpersonal style to help students find meaning in the relationships they forge as partners and team members, united in the act of learning; and В·ВВВВВВВ four-style strategies that integrate all four styles.
