In far too many classrooms, the emphasis is on instructional strategies that teachers employ rather than on what students should be doing or thinking about as part of their learning. What's more, students' minds are something of a mysterious "black box" for most teachers, so when learning breaks down, they're not sure what went wrong or what to do differently to help students learn.It doesn't have to be this way.Learning That Sticks helps you look inside that black box. Bryan Goodwin and his coauthors unpack the cognitive science underlying research-supported learning strategies so you can sequence them into experiences that challenge, inspire, and engage your students. As a result, you'll learn to teach with more intentionality-understanding not just what to do but also when and why to do it.By way of an easy-to-use six-phase model of learning, this book* Analyzes how the brain reacts to, stores, and retrieves new information.* Helps you "zoom out" to understand the process of learning from beginning to end.* Helps you "zoom in" to see what's going on in students' minds during each phase.Learning may be complicated, but learning about learning doesn't have to be. And to that end, Learning That Sticks helps shine a light into all the black boxes in your classroom and make your practice the most powerful it can be.

The book that inspired millions of educators to refine their approach to teaching returns for an all-new third edition. Built on a more rigorous research base and updated to emphasize student diversity, equity, and inclusion, The New Classroom Instruction That Works offers a streamlined focus on the 14 instructional strategies proven to promote deep, meaningful, and lasting learning: * Cognitive interest cues * Student goal setting and monitoring * Vocabulary instruction * Strategy instruction and modeling * Visualizations and concrete examples * High-level questions and student explanations * Guided initial application with formative feedback *Peer-assisted consolidation of learning * Retrieval practice * Spaced and mixed independent practice * Targeted support * Cognitive writing * Guided investigations * Structured problem solvingThese strategies--all of which are effective and complementary--are presented within a framework geared toward instructional planning and aligned with how the brain learns. For each strategy, you'll get the key research findings, the important principles of classroom practice, and recommended approaches for using the strategy with today's learners.Both new and veteran teachers will finish this book with a better understanding of how effective teaching boosts student achievement and a clearer idea of what to do, when to do it, and why.
