MODEL LEARNING FOR TEACHERS

Situation

You’re an effective teacher with many strategies at your disposal. You have an engaging curriculum and your pupils are disposed to learning. You’ve addressed their learning styles and productively assess their work. And yet, for all that, many pupils still find learning difficult.

Why is it that pupils:

- sometimes just don’t understand what you’re teaching them?
- find learning independently and collaboratively beyond them?
- struggle at remembering and communicating their learning?

Maybe, it’s time to take a fresh look at how learning really happens.

Solution

This requires you to address the problems of pupil learning further ‘upstream’ than conventional approaches. And directly influence their learning as it happens—in the process. Why? Because it’s here where the roots of successful learning appear. This early organization of thoughts, at source, is the critical factor in determining the quality of your pupils’ learning. Our Model Learning System will provide you with the precise set of visual tools and methods you’ll need to achieve this and guarantee successful learning and teaching.

Benefits

You will leave this programme with a:

- new understanding of precisely what learning is and how it happens
- remarkable clarity as to why pupils fail and succeed at learning

And, most importantly, you will be

- equipped to influence directly your pupils’ success
- confident in using your new set of skills immediately

How will you do this? By systematically applying visual tools pervasively in your classroom:

- Your explanations become clear and simple so pupils quickly grasp the point
- Any pupil misunderstanding is pinpointed in the process of learning
- Modeling how to think allows pupils to copy your methods and apply them to their learning
- Group and collaborative activities become far more successful
- Pupils learn productively through activities designed for maximum interaction
- Pupil presentations and explanations are more organised and coherent
- Organised learned content guarantees optimum recall for tests and exams.

So why should you believe us? Well, actually, over 3,000 schools have reported significant impacts on a wide range of initiatives across a spectrum of teaching strategies and pupil groupings. They credit the core nature of the benefits to teaching and learning as the key factor in delivering so many positive outcomes.
