I love using content enhancement routines to engage learning in the classroom. I believe that any of these routines provides a student with another tool to organize information in a more efficient manner that may support/impact learning. I have taught in the elementary, middle, high, and now the college level. I can say that all learners can benefit from the Concept Mastery Routine.
The University 100 course transitions students into college life; academically and socially. My job is to teach them how to be successful. Using the Concept Mastery Routine supported my efforts to express the importance of good study habits to their overall college experience.
I did learn that, as a special education teacher by design, I am used to motivating learners and now I am in a community at the university level of motivated learners that 20 minutes is still not enough time to get it all done. I had a practice piece for them to complete, but we did not get to it during my time that I was being recorded. I wanted to get to the definition since that was more important. My point is, as teachers, we are always adapting, always tweaking, making changes on the fly. Overall, the Concept Mastery Routine is beneficial to students of all ages.
