Description

Challenging Learning Theory offers practical advice and techniques for helping children develop into confident, thoughtful and independent learners. Based around the acronym ASK (Attitudes, Skills and Knowledge), this guide explores how to challenge pupils to think more skilfully and logically in the classroom. Drawing on the latest research from leading experts, Challenging Learning provides effective teaching strategies, including FACTS, the Teaching Target Model and the Learning Pit Models. The book also offers up-to-date research and theory, as well as practical suggestions for designing and developing lessons that encourage independent thinking and a spirit of inquiry. With its focus on questioning, praise, feedback and encouragement, this book is a valuable resource for teachers, parents, carers and youth workers who want to enhance children's learning.
