Learner Variability
they discover in a variety of ways. Students need opportunities to tap into
their own way of interpreting the world in order to fully understand new
kind. Interactive notebooks provide teachers with an organizational tool that
encourages the use of different instructional strategies and can be helpful
when planning for the learning styles of students.
When considering the use of interactive notebooks, teachers must be
cognizant of the different learning preferences, interests, and abilities of
each student and accommodate these diverse needs “in order to properly
plan and conduct assignments and assess what students have learned”
Educators must think about the way their students learn; no one strategy
include visual/verbal, tactile/kinesthetic, visual/nonverbal, and auditory/verbal.
Awareness of these learning preferences is helpful in planning for students in
the classroom because they are what make learners and teachers different.
The most insightful purpose of planning this way is that it makes a teacher
consider various ways to present and receive information. One way for them
to do that is to allow students the freedom to think. When students are given
the opportunity to think about how they naturally process information, they
are more apt to connect to what they are being taught. This is the ultimate
goal in the classroom—for students to retain new information.

Introduction
Scientists keep notebooks to document their discoveries and record their
learning before, during, and after each research or investigative experience.
So, too, when students enter a science classroom, they are scientists and as
their notebooks throughout the learning process.
Interactive notebooks combine research-based instructional strategies such
as note-taking and concept mapping with other processing strategies into
one instructional method to promote student learning and success. This is
why interactive science notebooks are widely used in the classroom; some
Interactive notebooks are valuable tools when all stakeholders in the learning
process (students, parents, teachers, and administrators) understand and
support their application, organization, expectations for, and use. By having
in the implementation and management of interactive notebooks.
Teachers should include time in their lesson plans for students to process
their learning and add new entries in their notebooks in the same way
scientists do. When information is written, it becomes real and more
permanent to the student.
