Answer to Question 1

Examples are:
 Provide a list of objectives for the lesson.
 Point out how new concepts relate to things in students' everyday lives.
 Explicitly teach students how they might elaborate on things they learn.
 Teach mnemonics for hard-to-remember facts.
 Scaffold note taking, perhaps by telling students what to write down or by providing an outline or other structure to fill in.
 Give students a set of questions to guide their reading and help them self-assess their learning and comprehension.

Answer to Question 2

Following are a few of the many possibilities:
 She could provide a list of questions for students to answer as they read each section of the textbook.
 She could use a jigsaw approach to cooperative learning, having one member of each group study one aspect of climate in depth. Each student would then teach what he or she has learned to the other group members.
 She could apply a jigsaw approach on a grander scale, similar to what is often done in a community of learners. In particular, different groups of students would pick different aspects of climate on which to specialize. After learning about their topic, new groups would form that each include a member from each of the previous groups. The experts on various topics would teach their topics to the other group members.
