About this ebook
Drawing on material from the hugely influential Innovating Pedagogy series of reports, this book is a compilation of the 40 most relevant pedagogies, covering:
- innovative ways to teach and learn;
- how pedagogies are adopted in new ways for a digital age;
- evidence on how and why different methods of teaching work, including case studies set in classrooms, informal settings, and online learning spaces;
- practical implications of the latest research into the science of learning, combining psychology, education, social sciences and neuroscience.
Organised around six themes – Personalization, Connectivity, Reflection, Extension, Embodiment and Scale – Practical Pedagogy is a comprehensive source for teachers, policy makers, educational researchers and anyone interested in new ways to teach and learn.
