10 Mindframes for Visible Learning: Teaching for Success

The original Visible Learning research concluded that one of the most important influencers of student achievement is how teachers think about learning and their own role. In Ten Mindframes for Visible Learning, John Hattie and Klaus Zierer define the 10 behaviors or mindframes that teachers need to adopt in order to maximize student success. These include: - thinking of and evaluating your impact on students’ learning; - the importance of assessment and feedback for teachers; - working collaboratively and the sense of community; - the notion that learning needs to be challenging; - engaging in dialogue and the correct balance between talking and listening; - conveying the success criteria to learners; - building positive relationships. 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. This practical audiobook will show any school exactly how to implement Hattie’s mindframes to maximize success. Narrated by listener favorite Brian Arens. ©2018 John Hattie and Klaus Zierer.

Visible Learning: A Synthesis of Over 800 Meta-Analyses Relating to Achievement

This unique and ground-breaking audiobook is the result of 15 years research and synthesises over 800 meta-analyses on the influences on achievement in school-aged students. It builds a story about the power of teachers, feedback, and a model of learning and understanding. The research involves many millions of students and represents the largest-ever evidence-based research into what actually works in schools to improve learning. Areas covered include the influence of the student, home, school, curricula, teacher, and teaching strategies. A model of teaching and learning is developed based on the notion of visible teaching and visible learning. A major message is that what works best for students is similar to what works best for teachers - an attention to setting challenging learning intentions, being clear about what success means, and an attention to learning strategies for developing conceptual understanding about what teachers and students know and understand. Although the current evidence-based fad has turned into a debate about test scores, this audiobook is about using evidence to build and defend a model of teaching and learning. A major contribution is a fascinating benchmark/dashboard for comparing many innovations in teaching and schools. Visible Learning is expertly narrated by Brian Arens. All visual elements from the text are included in the supplementary PDF. Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. ©2009 John A. C.
