Synopsis
"Evidence Based Teaching" presents a coherent, evidence based view of teaching and learning and presents some radical new methods that are known to greatly improve achievement. "Evidence Based Teaching" will help practically demonstrate how we should teach from the following sources: School effectiveness and school improvement research; Best practice in University teaching; Best practice in FE teaching; Effect size studies carried out mainly in schools; Teaching Thinking skills; Multiple representations; and Constructivism. Together, these strategies, ideas and advice provide us with both general principles for teaching, and very specific methods, all of which can substantially improve teaching and few of which are in common use.

From the Inside Flap
Teaching is about to embark on a revolution and, like medicine, abandon custom and practice, and fashions and fads to become evidence-based. Half a million experiments in real classrooms have uncovered the teaching methods that work best. These can improve students attainment by two grades compared with conventional practice. Over 50 of these top teaching methods are examined in this book and these methods, some old, some new:
* can each raise pass rates by 20 per cent to 30 per cent.
* are creative, challenging, and greatly enjoyed by students.
* require the learner to do more in class . and the teacher less!
* equip students for progression, by teaching intelligence .
Petty argues that only teachers can lead the evidence-based revolution, and they must do so at their own pace, using as a guide the ultimate evidence what works best in their own classrooms.
Teachers have as much to gain as students in meeting this professional challenge. The methods make teaching less draining and more interesting, as well as more effective.
This book is a road map into this exciting new territory.
