      The global expansion of education is one of the greatest successes of the modern era. More children have access to schooling and leave with higher levels of learning than at any time in history. However, 250 million+ children in developing countries are still not in school, and 600 million+ attend but get little out of it – a situation further exacerbated by the dislocations from COVID-19. In a context where education funding is stagnating and even declining, Arran Hamilton and John Hattie suggest that we need to start thinking Lean and explicitly look for ways of unlocking more from less. Drawing on data from 900+ systematic reviews of 53,000+ research studies – from the perspective of efficiency of impact – they controversially suggest that for low- and middle-income countries: This groundbreaking and thought-provoking work also identifies a range of initiatives that are worth starting. It introduces the Leaning to G.O.L.D. methodology to support school and system leaders in selecting, implementing, and scaling those high-probability initiatives; and to rigorously de-implement those to be stopped. It is essential reading for anyone with an interest in education.

    • In 2009, John Hattie's Visible Learning presented a comprehensive collection of research on effective educational practices, focusing on what truly enhances children's learning rather than on trends or political agendas. This bestseller was hailed by the TES as revealing education's 'holy grail.' In this latest work, Hattie collaborates with cognitive psychologist Greg Yates to expand on the original findings, integrating cognitive science to create a robust framework for classroom learning. The book outlines key principles and strategies, addressing the complexities of learning and offering insights for both teachers and students. It is structured in three parts: 'learning within classrooms,' 'learning foundations'—which delves into cognitive building blocks—and 'know thyself,' focusing on confidence and self-awareness. Interactive appendices include study guide questions, annotated bibliographies, and links to relevant resources. The authors draw on international research to explore various topics, such as teacher-student relationships, knowledge storage, cognitive load, self-control, and common myths about learning. This engaging guide serves as a valuable resource for students, teachers, and parents seeking to understand how research on learning can enhance educational practices across all levels, from preschool to tertiary education.

      Dial back and make room for impact With teacher and leader workloads and burnout at an all-time high, it's time for de-implementation: de-prioritizing and deleting the less effective, higher-cost initiatives we implement in schools. De-implementation allows us to focus on practices that have more supporting evidence and a higher probability of positive impact on students, and at the same time to gain much-needed work-life balance. In Making Room for Impact, the internationally respected education experts and authors provide a clear four-stage process for winnowing down teaching and learning to high-effect practices. Informed by the latest research in learning, education, healthcare, and psychology, each step and tool is designed to move educators through the hard parts of letting go. Inside, you'll find: Research that tells us the process of schooling is often over-engineered and that gives us permission to dial back, carefully A step-by-step process for deciding which initiatives are most effective--and how to let go of the ones that are not Useful tools, templates, and charts that educators can immediately use in their de-implementation work--at school, in teaching teams, or at the system level It's time to get our lives back--without harming student learning. If we can collectively learn to let go and understand how to identify which initiatives are worthwhile, we'll have more time for what truly matters.

    • „Visible Learning“ von John Hattie ist die größte Sammlung empirischer Daten über die Erfolgsfaktoren von Schule und Unterricht. Das zentrale Ergebnis zeigt, dass der entscheidende Faktor für Bildungserfolg in den Haltungen der Lehrpersonen liegt: Wichtiger als das, was sie tun, ist, wie und warum sie es tun. Hattie definiert die Haltungen erfolgreicher Lehrpersonen als essenziell für pädagogische Expertise. In „Kenne deinen Einfluss! ‚Visible Learning’ für die Unterrichtpraxis“ wird dieser Gedanke vertieft. John Hattie und Klaus Zierer erläutern anhand von zehn Haltungen, wie erfolgreiche Lehrpersonen denken und handeln und welche Auswirkungen dies auf ihre Lernenden hat. Sie laden Lehrpersonen, Lernende, Eltern und Bildungspolitiker ein, die nächsten Schritte der „Visible Learning Story“ zu erkunden – eine Geschichte über Schulen, in denen pädagogische Expertise sichtbar ist und alle Beteiligten zusammenarbeiten, um Bildungserfolg zu ermöglichen. Das Buch folgt evidenzbasierten Kriterien für erfolgreiches Lernen und Lehren: Jedes Kapitel beginnt mit einem Haltungsfragebogen, gefolgt von einer Vignette und Zielangaben. Es präsentiert zentrale Ergebnisse aus „Visible Learning“ und belegt diese mit Beispielen aus dem Schulalltag. Zudem wird erläutert, wie man Lernen sichtbar machen und die eigene Professionalität weiterentwickeln kann, abgerundet durch Checklisten und Übungsaufgaben.
