Description
Drawing together the worlds of classroom practice, school leadership and cognitive science, this is an essential how-to guide for initiating and maintaining a school improvement journey based on the science of learning.
Providing accessible introductions to the most useful insights from the science of how we learn, the book demonstrates practical ways to use this knowledge within one’s own school. It also shows readers how this might look using a series of exemplary school case studies, allowing readers to learn from those who have gone before them. These stories are from leaders whose schools have embraced principles from the science of learning, forming a roadmap for any educator wanting to drive positive change in their school. A combination of insightful narratives of school transformation and the translation of scientific insights about learning and teaching, this book illustrates how even the most discrete changes in a school can have marked impacts. With evidence-driven implications for teachers and teacher educators alike, the chapters reflect a wide range of effective learning and teaching practices that will guide your school improvement journey.
This book is written both for educators already versed in science of learning principles, looking for ways to introduce it into their classrooms and schools, as well as those who are still exploring the concepts.
