Classroom Instruction that Works
Presented by Tom Roy
February 2, 2011
Registration 8:30 a.m.
Session 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.

This session will include all fundamental understandings from Dr. Robert Marzano’s research and best-selling book Classroom Instruction that Works. Teachers and administrators will be provided the background research and the nine strategies which have a high probability of instilling learning in students. Each strategy will be accompanied by examples and stories of teachers who use them. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with each other, write about applications for their classrooms or school roles, and to plan how to use the strategies. Educators will see their own practices affirmed and will also acquire new applications to try with students.

Tom Roy, PhD, is a private consultant and Marzano Research Laboratory associate who specializes in methods to improve student learning, increase assessment effectiveness, and strengthen school leadership. Dr. Roy is also a professor of education at Marian College in Wisconsin, where he teaches graduate courses on leadership, supervision, curriculum, instruction, assessment, research, and statistics, as well as a variety of undergraduate courses.

With more than 30 years experience in education, Dr. Roy has served in the classroom and the boardroom. He has taught science and mathematics at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. His 20 years of leadership as a central office administrator includes 12 years as a superintendent.
