Instructional Methods. Rolling Hills Public Charter School is distinguished by the multiplicity of ways in which it seeks to ensure student learning. Some of these are highlighted in the sections that follow. The Charter School uses uncommon means to achieve common ends. Through its multiple methods, all students are potentially successful and capable of fulfilling their individual potential. Rolling Hills Public Charter School plans to use the specific methods mentioned earlier (see “Standard e” in Section III.B. Idaho Thoroughness Standards) and the following instructional methods:  The Subject Matter Method presumes that an educated learner needs to know clearly defined skills and concepts that can best be learned in an organized sequential fashion. Traditionally, this approach has been predominately lecture-based. The Charter School plans to add computer-based learning to increase the efficiency of this method and to provide the opportunity for drills which are sometimes necessary.  The Inquiry and Problem-Solving Method suggests that learning occurs when individuals think critically and solve problems. The predominant premise of this method is that it is important to know how to retrieve and use the information, not just to have instant recall and possession of the information.  The Individualized Learning Method attempts to personalize the learning process to the interests of the individual by allowing students to develop goals for their self-study. The reasons for learning thus become intrinsic--one’s own curiosity and personal applicability of the information learned.  The Discussion Method encourages learning through sharing of information and concepts within a group, with the thinking process playing an important role. A discussion leader is prepared to recognize each learner’s level of understanding and can respond at the level most helpful to the learner.

Instructional Methods. Learning best occurs when teachers use critical moments of direct instruction and the student is allowed opportunities for acquisition and application of knowledge. When students are taught using multiple learning opportunities which are relevant, actively engaging, and purposeful, learning becomes exciting. The Village Charter School recognizes that education is more than the assimilation of facts, and uses uncommon means to achieve exceptional results. Classroom teachers follow the Limitless Learning Method. This innovative teaching method relies heavily on student assessment to provide qualitative and quantitative information, which provides a holistic picture of the student’s academic success and struggles. Assessment is critical to understanding how students learn best. When researched formative assessments are used to guide and develop instruction, each student greatly benefits. Instead of reviewing concepts previously mastered, students can build on what they already know and progress, learning new curriculum and concepts. Additionally, assessments demonstrate to teachers the skills that each student has not mastered, and informs the teacher that these skills may need to be re-taught in a different way. TVCS is dedicated to ensure all students, struggling, proficient, or gifted, are successful at fulfilling their individual potential. The students’ come first and are a priority with every decision made. Multiple instructional methods have been developed using available research and practice and they are utilized to reach the unique needs of each student, these include but are not limited to the following:
