Visible Learning Into Action

More about the book

At the recent Visible Learning Conference, Professor John Hattie expressed doubt about his work, prompting reflection on its impact. This sentiment resonates with educators who visit Keilor Views, a prime example of Hattie's principles in action. This book advances the Visible Learning narrative by translating extensive educational research into real-world case studies showcasing successful implementations of Hattie's ideas across various global classrooms. It features the journeys of fifteen schools from Australia, the USA, Hong Kong, the UK, Sweden, New Zealand, and Norway, each representing the international community's commitment to maximizing student potential. The stories within are designed to inform and inspire, highlighting the experiences of leaders, teachers, students, and families. Extensive appendices include study guide questions for critical thinking, annotated endnotes for further reading, and links to relevant online resources. The book is organized into five parts: Know thy impact; Effective feedback; Visible learners; Inspired and passionate teachers; and The Visible Learning School. It serves as a vital resource for students, teachers, and parents seeking insights into how research on learning processes can enhance teaching and school environments.
