Description
Book SynopsisWhen the original Visible Learning was published in 2008, it instantly became a publishing sensation. Interest in the book was unparalleled; it sold out in days and was described by the TES as revealing teaching's Holy Grail. Now John Hattie returns to this ground-breaking work. The research underlying this book is now informed by more than 2,100 meta-analyses (more than double that of the original), drawn from more than 130,000 studies, and has involved more than 400 million students from all around the world.
But this is more than just a new edition. This book is a sequel that highlights the major story, taking in the big picture to reflect on the implementation in schools of Visible Learning, how it has been understood and at times misunderstood and what future directions research should take.
Visible Learning: The Sequel reiterates the author's desire to move beyond claiming what works to what works best by asking crucial questions suc
