Make learning visible in the early years

Early childhood is a uniquely sensitive time, when young learners are rapidly developing across multiple domains, including language and literacy, mathematics, and motor skills. Knowing which teaching strategies work best and when can have a significant impact on a child's development and future success.

Visible Learning in Early Childhood investigates the critical years between ages 3 and 6 and, backed by evidence from the Visible Learning® research, explores seven core strategies for learning success: working together as evaluators, setting high expectations, measuring learning with explicit success criteria, establishing developmentally appropriate levels of learning, viewing mistakes as opportunities, continually seeking feedback, and balancing surface, deep, and transfer learning. The authors unpack the symbiotic relationship between these seven tenets through

Authentic examples of diverse learners and settings
Voices of master teachers from the US, UK, and Australia
Multiple assessment and differentiation strategies
Multidisciplinary approaches depicting mathematics, literacy, art and music, social-emotional learning, and more
