For me this chapter was very important because many students lack comprehension. I believe that it depends on how the teacher teaches the lesson for the students to understand or not. Teachers can’t just assume that all the students will get the lesson. He/she have to realize that different students learn with different strategies and if he/she needs to go a little bit beyond for the student to comprehend they have to.
There are many effective ways of teaching , and it does take time. The textbook stated “ It takes time to show kids how, but it is time well spent.” Teachers need to be patient and creative to get the students full understanding. For me the gradual release of responsibility is extremely important. If the instructor starts out by modeling and slowing allow the students to become more independent by the end of this process they will understand the concept and will be able to work at a higher level by themselves.
