Product reviews for Cognitive Load Theory
Early Years Educator Magazine
Aimed at busy teachers, this book describes cognitive load theory in simple terms and suggests ways that its principles can be embedded in daily teaching.
It focuses on John Sweller's idea that the brain has a very specific way of processing the learning of new or novel knowledge. Once a teacher understands how this system works they can improve the quality of teaching a pupil receives. Teachers may need to consider that if they do not understand the system the brain uses to process this new learning, then their quality of teaching could be held back.
With a wealth of information presented in a compact. accessible format this is a great resource for all those with a responsibility for improving teaching and learning.
The author covers a wide range of teaching strategies to empower teachers to help pupils learn more effectively.
