Connections to Other Initiatives
Based on research in education, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience, Project CRISS is a practical means to implement what we know about how people learn. CRISS meshes well with a variety of education initiatives that focus on student empowerment and teacher effectiveness.
- The CRISS introductory workshop and follow-up options explicitly address how to implement Common Core State Standards – focusing on the HOW of learning.
- Project CRISS ties into the Science of Reading! Our metacognitive strategy approach to learning ties directly in to Scarborough's Reading Rope (2001) at the Language Comprehension level. CRISS strategies and the Framework for Learning address ALL five strands: Background Knowledge, Vocabulary, Language Structures, Verbal Reasoning, and Literacy Knowledge.
