Introduction

Matching Teaching to Learning offers assistance when formulating effective teaching and learning strategies for secondary schools using self-evaluation. It will help you to implement personalised learning strategies to suit your pupils and extend the range of teaching and learning strategies your school offers.

Benefits

This book will help you respond to the above challenges. Through its pages you will be able to:

  • record the range of teaching strategies that you use in a single lesson or group of lessons
  • identify the range of learning styles that these lessons address
  • identify the teaching strategies that engage your pupils
  • match your pupils’ learning preferences to your own preferred range of teaching strategies
  • present this information in graphical and easily interpreted ways.

Summary of contents

Matching Teaching to Learning by John Beresford will help you to identify and address the learning styles of the pupils you teach. This essential publication explains the mapping techniques used to record students’ learning preferences and describes what many schools now regard as an essential part of their process of self-review.

The focus of educational thinking and research has changed from what students learn to how they learn. By combining lesson observations with student surveys, Matching Teaching to Learning provides an approach for schools that are interested in mapping and extending the range of teaching and learning strategies used in schools.
