CRL Content Enhancement Routines
Content Enhancement A way of teaching an academically diverse group of students in which: • both group and individual needs are valued and met; • the integrity of the content is maintained; • critical features of the content are selected and transformed in a manner that promotes student learning; and • instruction is carried out in a partnership with students.
“If it weren’t for students impeding our progress in the race to the end of the term, we certainly could be sure of covering all the content. • However, the question should not be whether we are covering the content, but whether students are with us on the journey.” Pat Cross, Director • Classroom Research Project • Univ. of Calif., Berkley

GOALS of theStrategic Instructional Approach Promote the development of individuals who can • learn and perform independently • exhibit appropriate social and personal skills • earn standard high school diplomas • make successful transitions to post high school settings
“When non-strategic learners are exposed to strategies instruction over a sustained period of time, they experience a significant change as learners. Consistent, well-articulated instruction can do much to create an instructional snowball effect that is sufficiently powerful to transform learners from passive to active problem solvers.” Donald D. Deshler
