Evidence-informed Strategies and Resources

About this book

Bring cognitive research to teaching practice with this practical toolkit

How do you introduce the science of learning to your faculty? How do you leverage professional development to ensure that teachers continually apply that science within their classrooms? How can you maximize learning in your classroom through the use of researched and evidence-informed strategies? These are the questions Patrice Bain sets out to answer in Powerful Classrooms: Evidence-informed Strategies and Resources. This book is a follow-up to Powerful Teaching, in which Bain and Pooja Agarwal unlocked the secrets to successfully applying the science of learning in classroom settings. Now, Bain seeks to share her strategies with a wider audience of educators and school administrators.

Patrice Bain is a longtime teacher and a leading voice in the science of learning. In this book, she uses easy-to-understand language to explain the latest findings from cognitive science about how humans learn best. Then, she offers practical techniques and activities for encouraging learning in any subject. Inside, you'll find:

  • Clear explanations of the science of learning and how it can improve administration and classroom teaching
  • Research-based practices that can be used everywhere from small-scale classrooms to large school districts
  • A collection of the best articles, books, podcasts, and websites for further exploration

For administrators, instructional coaches, and teachers looking for simple yet powerful practices, adding Powerful Classrooms into your educational toolkit will enhance student success through the science of learning.
