ABSTRACT

There is so much new to say about strategy instruction, strategy research, and strategy assessment that it would take many more books than this to encompass it. In this chapter I will simply focus on some innovations or potential innovations in these three overlapping areas. I will mention the possibility of differentiating and reframing strategy instruction and will summarize two meta-analyses of strategy instruction studies. For strategy research I will describe once again the fluidity of strategy roles and the necessity of recognizing complexity and will suggest some potentially important implications for research. I will also include a very new example of scenario-based strategy assessment. The chapter concludes with further readings and questions, tasks, and projects for readers.
