New e-book by Robert Powell to be published in July 2021: Active whole-class teaching 2

With a foreword by Tim Brighouse.

In the introduction, Robert sets out the case for the 7 evidence-based principles for teaching, learning and assessment, principles which can be adopted or amended for school policy if leaders choose.

He then explains how active whole-class teaching techniques can be used to engage and stimulate learners while meeting the need for challenge and rigour.

​

The chapters that follow explore each of the 7 principles with practical examples of strategies that can be used to deliver each principle.

​

The 157 strategies are in a menu format, allowing teachers to select those that meet their needs in terms of age of students,  subject or topic being taught, and the personal preferences of individuals.

​

Students enjoy variety of experience in lessons and each of the strategies is designed to encourage participation and deep learning.
