Full Description
This new and updated edition of 10 Mindframes for Visible Learning revisits the ten behaviours or mindframes that teachers need to adopt in order to maximize student success. These powerful mindframes, which should underpin every action in schools, are founded on the principle that teachers are evaluators, change agents, learning experts, and seekers of feedback who are constantly engaged with dialogue and challenge. The ten mindframes include:
thinking of and evaluating your impact on students' learning
the importance of assessment and feedback to inform teachers
working collaboratively and the sense of community
the notion that learning needs to be challenging and errors seen as opportunities to learn
engaging in dialogue and the correct balance between talking and listening
conveying the success criteria to learners
building positive relationships
This new edition now uses the much larger meta-analysis dataset (over 2,100 meta-analyses rather than 900) and incorporates new research, particularly with reference to digital technologies, evaluative thinking, and the lessons learned from large-scale school implementation of visible learning. Furthermore, thanks to "Visible Learning +", this book includes concrete, scientifically accompanied processes. Specifically, this means updated data, expanded chapters to include factors that clarify the core message of the mindframes, and explanations of the concrete examples that are research-proven to be most effective.
This updated essential guide, which includes questionnaires, scenarios, checklists, and exercises, will show any school exactly how to implement Hattie's mindframes to maximize student success.
