Description
Introducing a model for supporting and guiding successful learning and teaching in schools.
Learning is a complex process and Towards Successful Learning attempts to 'solve the puzzle' by taking significant 'pieces' of the process one by one and putting them together.
This book introduces the reader to a model for supporting and guiding the development of successful learning in classrooms. The model is designed to engage learners and teachers in exploring what learners need in order to experience success and what the implications of this will be for teachers and educators.
It is intended that the model should be used as a starting point to help learners and teachers make better sense of successful learning - from that point it is the teachers and leaders in schools who will take ownership of it and move forward with it to improve the quality of learning through a deeper understanding.
So what is successful learning?
What do successful learners do?
What do successful learners need?
How can we make it happen?
