Description
Understanding how students learn is crucial for effective teaching. Cognitive Load Theory provides a framework for maximising student outcomes by identifying the actions teachers can take to reduce cognitive load.
This practical guide summarises over 30 years of research in Cognitive Load Theory, written under the guidance of its originator, John Sweller. It offers a clear and easily understandable explanation of the core principles of CLT, along with a range of classroom-ready strategies to apply in various subjects, including art, music, history, and more.
With its focus on practical, research-based advice, this book is a valuable resource for teachers looking to improve their teaching practice and student outcomes.
