Once a map is constructed, it needs to be refined. Construct an essay describing the process of refining the map.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Students should indicate the map needs to be looked at with a critical eye. Questions such as (1) has anything critical been omitted?, (2) is there any content that can be eliminated because it is not important?, (3) is anything misplaced by level?, (4) is there unnecessary duplication?, (5) does each strand show appropriate development through the grades?, (6) is there good balance from grade to grade, and (7) does it respond appropriately to state and district mandates? I have intentionally paraphrased and edited the steps, the question clearly told students not to list steps. We are interested in the comprehension level, not the knowledge level.

Trowbridge and Cason asked students to draw lines of a certain length for thousands of trials. Some students were given no feedback, some were told "right" or "wrong" after each trial (right-wrong feedback), and some were told exactly how far off they were after each trial (how-much feedback). According to a behaviorist interpretation of Thorndike's law of effect, which group(s) should perform
the best? a. right-wrong feedback group and how-much feedback group should both show the same improvement because both are given rewards and punishments but the no feedback group should not improve b. all groups should improve equally because all get equal amounts of practice c. the how-much feedback group should perform best because it gets more detailed information d. the theory does not make a prediction
