Visible Learning for Teachers brings ground breaking concepts to a completely new audience. Written for students, pre-service and in-service teachers, it explains how to apply the principles of Visible Learning to any classroom anywhere in the world.
In November 2008, John Hattie's ground-breaking book Visible Learning synthesised the results of more than 15 years of research involving millions of students and represented the biggest ever collection of evidence-based research into what actually works in schools to improve learning.
Visible Learning for Teachers takes the next step and brings those ground-breaking concepts to a completely new audience. Written for students, pre-service and in-service teachers, it explains how to apply the principles of Visible Learning to any classroom anywhere in the world. The author offers concise and user-friendly summaries of the most successful interventions and offers practical step-by-step guidance to the successful implementation of visible learning and visible teaching in the classroom.
This book:
- Links the biggest ever research project on teaching strategies to practical classroom implementation.
- Champions both teacher and student perspectives and contains step-by-step guidance including lesson preparation, interpreting learning and feedback during the lesson and post-lesson follow-up.
- Offers checklists, exercises, case studies and best practice scenarios to assist in raising achievement.
- Includes whole school checklists and advice for school leaders on facilitating visible learning in their institution.
- Now includes additional meta-analyses bringing the total cited within the research to over 900.
Comprehensively covering numerous areas of learning activity including pupil motivation, curriculum, meta-cognitive strategies, behaviour, teaching strategies, and classroom management, Visible Learning for Teachers is a must-read for any student or teacher who wants an evidence-based answer to the question: 'how do we maximise achievement in our schools?'
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
βRecognising what makes a difference enables reflection on how to do more that makes a positive difference. Reading this book should make obvious the swathes of time-consuming tasks that make no (or worse, negative) impact, making them easy to remove. It is fabulously well-researched.β β Mary Bousted, general secretary, Association of Teachers and Lecturers
Praised for providing a robust evidence base from thousands of scholars and millions of children, the book challenges educators to reconsider previously held beliefs and bases teaching and leadership decisions on the best available research rather than trends or opinions.
