Produktbeschreibung

Learning how to learn is an essential preparation for lifelong learning. While this is widely acknowledged by teachers, they have lacked a rich professional knowledge base from which they can teach their pupils to learn how to learn. This book makes a major contribution by building on previous work associated with `assessment for learning¿. Improving Learning How to Learn is based on the findings of a major development and research project that explored what teachers can do in their classroom practice to help pupils acquire the knowledge and skills of learning how to learn. This book will be of interest to all those concerned with improving classroom learning and assessment. A practical companion book, Learning How to Learn: Tools for Schools, is also available from Routledge.
