Carl Hendrick – författare

Building on their bestselling book How Learning Happens, Paul A. Kirschner and Carl Hendrick are joined by Jim Heal to explore how teaching happens. The book seeks to closely examine what makes for effective teaching in the classroom and how research on expert teaching can be used in practice.

Introducing 30 seminal works from the field of education psychology research, the learning sciences, and teaching effectiveness studies, each chapter takes an important work and illustrates clearly and concisely what the research means and how it can be used in daily practice. Divided into six sections the book covers:

• Teacher Effectiveness, Development, and Growth

• Curriculum Development / Instructional Design

• Teaching Techniques

• Pedagogical Content Knowledge

• In the Classroom

• Assessment

The book ends with a final chapter on "What’s Missing?" in how teachers learn to teach.

Written by three leading experts in the field with illustrations by Oliver Cavigioli, How Teaching Happens provides a clear roadmap for classroom teachers, school leaders, and teacher trainers/trainees on what effective teaching looks like in practice.

How Learning Happens introduces 32 giants of educational research and their findings on how we learn and what we need to know to learn effectively, efficiently, and enjoyably. Many of these works have inspired researchers and teachers all around the world and have left a mark on how we teach today.

Now updated to include a new section on Memory and Cognition with five new chapters, this revised second edition explores a selection of the key works on learning and teaching, chosen from the fields of educational psychology and cognitive psychology. It offers a roadmap of the most important discoveries in the way learning happens, with each chapter examining a different work and explaining its significance before describing the research, its implications for practice, and how it can be used in the classroom – including the key takeaways for teachers.

Clearly divided into seven sections, the book covers:

Written by two leading experts and illustrated by Oliver Caviglioli, this is essential reading for teachers wanting to fully engage with and understand educational research as well as undergraduate students in the fields of education, educational psychology, and the learning sciences.

Som lärare är det lätt att bli frustrerad över att pedagogisk forskning och praktik ibland känns väldigt långt ifrån varandra. Den forskning som bedrivs utmynnar ofta i fler frågor än raka svar. Hur använder jag den här forskningen konkret i undervisningen? Vad innebär den för mig i klassrummet?

...och hur gör jag i klassrummet? Pedagogikforskning i praktiken tar fasta på den här frustrationen där de två författarna Carl Hendrick och Robin Macpherson, båda lärare med lång erfarenhet, intervjuar några av de främsta pedagogiska tänkarna idag, till exempel Dylan Wiliam, Daisy Christodoulou, David Didau och Doug Lemov. Berörda områden är bland annat bedömning, motivation, minnesträning, psykologi och lärandemyter. Frågorna som ställs är rättframma och relevanta vilket ger konkreta svar som kan användas direkt i klassrummet.

...och hur gör jag i klassrummet? vänder sig till alla verksamma lärare som söker ett handfast, helhetstäckande undervisningsstöd.

Carl Hendrick är fil. dr i pedagogik på Wellington College i England. I grunden är han engelsklärare. Robin Macpherson är historielärare och just nu vice rektor på Dollar Academy (en framstående internatskola) i Skottland. Både Carl och Robin har lång erfarenhet av läraryrket och föreläser ofta vid konferenser om skola och utbildning, till exempel researchED.

Sagt om boken:

”Frågorna och svaren i boken, i god översättning från engelska (och emellanåt är det brittiska förhållanden som skiner igenom), tror jag kan vara en inspiration i yrkesverksamheten och sporra till diskussion i arbetslagen ute på skolorna.”Linus Björk, BTJ-häftet nr 2, 2020.
