In my last post, I described John Hattie’s great project: analyzing nearly one thousand meta-analyses to better understand the factors linked with student learning. I summarized my major takeaways:

• Good teachers select, mix and match, and combine teacher-centered and student centered instructional techniques
• Good teachers are “activators” rather than “facilitators” of learning
• Good teachers see learning through the eyes of their students and help students to become their own teachers
• Good teachers seek out and analyze evidence of their impact on students
