Hattie-what motivates people to learn??

Feedback :

• Hattie has made clear that ‘feedback’ includes telling students what they have done well (positive reinforcement), and what they need to do to improve(corrective work, targets etc), .


• As well as feedback on the task Hattie believes that students can get feedback on the processes they have used to complete the task, and on their ability to self-regulate their own learning.


• All these have the capacity to increase achievement.


• it is important that feedback is informative

peer tutoring:

• this is where the students teach each other. this is an important area for students, as not only do they learn from the peer but the studnet helping them is reinforceing twhat they know...without them realising it!!!!

behavioural objectives:

• Having and using objectives in the form: “The students should be able to…” immediately followed by an observable verb. For example ‘explain’ is okay because you can listen to, or read the student’s explanation.


• However ‘understand’ isn’t bevavioural because you can’t see or read the understanding.
