2. How do we improve achievement for all?
Achievement is more likely to be increased when
students …
Invoke learning rather than performance strategies
Accept rather than discount feedback
Benchmark to difficult rather than to easy goals
Compare themselves to subject criteria rather than to
other students
Possess high rather than low efficacy to learning
Effect self-regulation and personal control
John Hattie, 2009

4. Number of words heard by children
A child in a welfare-dependent family hears on average
616 words an hour 500
A child in a working-class home hears on average 1,251
words an hour 700
A child in a professional home hears on average 2,153
words an hour 1100
Number of words spoken by the time children are 3
Hart &Risley, 1995
5. By the time they start school in the UK …
Some children
start school
knowing 6,000
words.
Others, just
500 words.

9. Learning how to learn
„What (students) should learn first is not the
subjects ordinarily taught, however important they
may be; they should be given lessons of will, of
attention, of discipline; before exercises in
grammar, they need to be exercised in mental
orthopaedics; in a word they must learn how to
learn.‟
Alfred Binet
1857 - 1911
10. Alfred Binet, creator of the first IQ test
„Some recent philosophers
have given their moral approval
to the deplorable verdict that
an individual‟s intelligence is a
fixed quantity, one which
cannot be augmented. We
must protest and act against
this brutal pessimism … it has
no foundation whatsoever.‟
Alfred Binet
1857 - 1911

28. “The art of effective
teaching is to provide
the right form of
feedback at, or just
above, the level at
which the student is
working – with one
exception …”
“… do not mix praise
into the feedback
prompt, because this
dilutes the effect!”
Visible Learning for Teachers (Hattie, 2011), pp 121

Notas do Editor
The evidence was collected from existing meta-analyses – the actual research that is the basis of the meta-analyses included published material and quality assured research papers and student projects (eg unpublished PhDs theses). John Hattie is constantly updating the meta-analyses so you may find slight variations in the effects across publications. The material in this workshop will be kept up to date and the effect size tables in the workbook will be accurate.
