Teachback

By David Vogt on December 28, 2019

Teachback derives from the simple, ages-old adage that, “you never really learn anything until you have to teach it”.  A teacher instructs on a topic which the learner absorbs and then instructs back in their own authentic terms, with an arrived consensus becoming a learning moment for both parties.  The strategy is being applied in the UK, for example, within the health professions to facilitate informed consent: when a patient is able to teachback to a physician the essence of a proposed treatment, the physician can be confident the patient understands what is involved.

Opportunity Statement

OK, so, Teachback isn’t a “technology” so much as a “pedagogy”, but it is included here because, while it can be implemented without any technology whatsoever, it is a form of active learning that is intrinsically social and scalable, and inherently amenable to an emerging world of self-expression through media.  Akin to how ETEC522 students are enabled to learn by producing Open Educational Resources (OERs) for other learners, it can become a perpetual motion engine for learning.

In my music classroom, I find using Teachback is highly beneficial for my students. I feel that having students take on the responsibility of providing instruction to others helps to keep them more engaged and focus with the material. It also helps them to demonstrate and develop understanding because they need to be able to break down the concept or topic into smaller, more digestible pieces. They will be instructing their peers, and they have to be able to communicate their ideas to others effectively and from multiple angles. Each of the learners that they are working with will gain understanding of the topic or concept in a unique way, and Teachback forces the students to take that into consideration. Yes, as mentioned before, Teachback is not a technology, but I feel that there are many different technology strategies and platforms that will allow students to engage in Teachback effectively.

As a primary teacher I love using Teachback in my classroom. I find it most valuable especially using the technology tool for reporting called Freshgrade. I can record students teaching me what they have learned about anything in the classroom. Students I have encountered have felt comfortable showing me on video how they got an answer rather than looking for the right or wrong answer on a paper test. I agree with the statement above "Teachback isnt a technology" however when used with technology it becomes very valuable for both students, teachers and parents.
