5.0 out of 5 stars Transformational, 30 April 2006
By S. Heal - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An excellent introduction to the principles underlying Guy Claxton's work and how to put them into practice. I began highlighting the key insights and gave up when I found I was highlighting everything. Putting the book's principles into practice has transformed my teaching and the approach of my class and school. It's great to take some of the focus off content and put it onto learning skills. It's also great to pause the relentless focus on quality of teaching and take a look at what and how and why children are learning. PS SATs results went up.

5.0 out of 5 stars A classic 'must-read' for everyone in education, 31 Jul 2008
By Mr. J. F. Mills "overcourt" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A long time in coming - a down-to-earth inspirational exposition on what learning how to learn in schools is all about. Easy to read with clear models to assist understanding - what do learners do; what teachers and educators can do - it contains loads of ideas for teachers to use immediately. Small changes as big levers to shift the power dynamic in the classroom from the teacher towards the learner. Of course! Highly recommended this will become a classic text, if it's not one already. Enjoy!
