The Right Drivers
Visible Learning
John Hattie
What is Visible Learning
• Visible Learning is the result of 15 years’ research and synthesises over 800 meta-analyses (over 50,000 studies) relating to the influences on achievement in school-aged students. It presents the largest ever collection of evidence-based research into what actually works in schools to improve learning (and what doesn’t).
Meta-analysis & effect size
• The vast majority of innovations or educational strategies can be said to “work” because they can be shown to have a positive effect.
• An effect size of 1.0 would improve the rate of learning by 50% and would mean that, on average, students receiving that treatment would exceed 84% of students not receiving that treatment.

Teacher-Student Relationships
Diamond Nine Activity
• With a partner discuss these nine factors that influence student achievement
• Place them in a diamond shape, in order of how great you think their positive influence is (on average)
• Think about why they have this effect
The Diamond 9 tool is designed to help people collectively explore several issues by prioritizing them collaboratively. It supports a focused discussion in a relatively short space of time.

Providing Feedback
If feedback is so important, what kind of feedback should be
taking place in our classrooms?
• Discuss in pairs for 2 minutes
“The most powerful single influence enhancing achievement is feedback”
• Quality feedback is needed, not more feedback• Much of the feedback provided by the teacher to
the student is not valued and not acted on• Students with a Growth Mindset welcome
feedback and are more likely to use it to improve their performance
• Oral feedback is much more effective than written
• The most powerful feedback is provided from the student to the teacher
How could we obtain more feedback from students?
How can we ensure we act on this feedback to raise
achievement?
Discuss in pairs
Meaningful Goals
Setting Goals/Mastery Objective
• There is strong evidence that challenging, achievable goals influence achievement, provided the individual is involved in setting them.
• Goals have a self-energizing effect if they are appropriately challenging as they can motivate students to exert effort in line with the difficulty or demands of the goal.

understanding”
Checking for Understanding
• using questioning to check for understanding• providing meaningful feedback• reinforcing effort by reframing of conceptual
awareness on specific learning goals
Summary of Feedback
feedback must be informative rather than evaluative.
• Achievement is enhanced to the degree that students and teachers set and communicate appropriate, specific and challenging goals
• Achievement is enhanced as a function of feedback, using questioning of formative assessments
• Increases in student learning involves not only surface and deep learning but also a reframing conceptual awareness through meta-cognitive principles in teaching.
