         <description><![CDATA[<div>Element 9 is about chunking content into smaller pieces, in order for students to better understand, learn, and remember the content. By starting with the most broad content area, and continuing to narrow it down into smaller categories, you are giving the students more manageable pieces, while at the same time, developing your lessons. Another aspect of this element is to use your pre-assessment data to guide your chunking. If your students did really well in a section, then they could handle learning more information during a single sitting. However, if they did not do very well, it would be best to keep your information into smaller chunks.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>~ Use multisensory media with related chunks of information<br>~ Use IWB software to make interactive graphic organizers<br>~ Chunk information with related images, sounds, or animations<br>~ Provide plenty of time for students to reflect on each chunk and how it relates to the learning goal<br>~ Give students hands-on practice (ruler, protractor, etc.)<br>~ Use visual prompts to help students identify similarities and differences<br>~ Use clickers and polling software to quickly assess your students<br>~ Vary the size of chunks as needed, based on your students' prior knowledge<br>~ Find ways to tie unrelated information together, in order to chunk them</div>]]></description>
