Making Every Lesson Count: Six Principles to Support Great Teaching and Learning, Hardcover/Shaun Allison

Packed with practical strategies and case studies, Making Every Lesson Count bridges the gap between research findings and classroom practice. The authors examine the evidence behind what makes great teaching great, and how to implement this in the classroom to make a difference to learning. This is really a toolkit of strategies that teachers can use every lesson to make that lesson count. No gimmicky teaching just high impact and focused teaching that results in great learning, every lesson, every day. The authors demonstrate how an ethos of excellence and growth can be built through high-quality classroom practice. Combining robust evidence from a range of fields with the practical wisdom of experienced, effective classroom teachers, the book is a must-read for trainee teachers or experienced teachers wishing to enhance their practice as well as school leaders looking for an evidence-based alternative to restrictive test-driven definitions of great teaching.
