The Learning Power Approach: Teaching Learners to Teach Themselves

The Learning Power Approach is a worldwide movement for 21st century education. It revolves around a series of practical adjustments to the mood and the activities of the classroom, as well as to associated whole-school practices. Teachers gradually have to change small habits so that students learn to enjoy taking on more and more responsibility for planning, trouble-shooting and evaluating their own learning. This investment of effort pays off dramatically in terms of improved grades, and effective preparation for a long life of confident learning.
