Analogous Learning

Marzano noted it throughout his research - comparisons lead to enhanced learning.  So, as you are working with students on skill, knowledge, life...make comparisons, make contrasts, make analogies, use metaphors.  But, don't make it a secret.  Explain how it's analogous...the more explicit, the better!
