Synopsis

In this book, John Hattie, Doug Fisher, Nancy Frey, team up with mathematics experts Linda M. Gojak, Sara Delano Moore, and William Mellman to walk teachers through the key research-based moves they should focus on in their mathematics classrooms - those with the highest effect sizes in the phases of surface, deep, and transfer learning. In accessible, every-day language, they offer their best guidance to teachers on what surface, deep, and transfer learning mean, look, and sound like in the mathematics context. How to ensure teacher clarity through setting meaningful learning intentions and success criteria that build on prior learning, and by continually checking for understanding.
