What I love about this book is that it gives a teacher a framework for thinking about how to teach students, it is a cyclic framework where we first diagnose to discover as much as we can about each unique student and then plan and try it out and evaluate the impact of our teaching on the students. I love how they share a website where we can look at which practices have large effect size and research to back up the practices (https://www.visiblelearningmetax.com/) and I also love how they share a table of high impact research based teaching practices such as the Jigsaw method and also stress the importance of not only knowing the high impact practice, but figuring out how to best apply that strategy in the right context is also key. From this book, I also learned about Mentimeter (https://www.mentimeter.com/) which lets the teacher create a poll to ask questions to the learners to get feedback from the students. ( )
