Learning power approach: teaching learners to teach themselves

 

In 'The Learning Power Approach: Teaching learners to teach themselves' Guy Claxton sets out the design principles of a pedagogical formula that aims to strengthen students learning muscles and develop their independence, initiative, determination, and love of learning.

In this groundbreaking book Guy distils fifteen years experience with his influential Building Learning Power method to provide a set of design principles for strengthening students learning muscles, and together with a wealth of practical strategies and the supporting evidence that underpins them details the small tweaks to daily practice that will help teachers attend more closely to the ways in which they can shape their students learning dispositions and attitudes.

Suitable for teachers and leaders in all educational settings,'The Learning Power Approach' carefully lays the groundwork for a series of books to follow that are specifically tailored to primary teaching, secondary teaching, and school leadership.
