Final Points And Resources

Research shows that less teaching plus more feedback is the key to achieving greater learning.

That incudes less feedback that comes only from you, and more tangible feedback designed into the performance itself.

“Teachers talk about 89% of the time; that's not a lot of listening. What we want teachers to do is to interview students about, 'What don't you understand about what I said when I made these comments?'—so we start to focus on how the teacher's comments are being received.

I do think the power of teaching is in the art of listening.”
