Evidence-based Teaching
Evidence-Based Teaching uses methods that have been thoroughly tested and proven. While there is a lot of good evidence available, much of it is hidden in academic journals and books. These resources have been designed to present this evidence in accessible and practical ways for teachers.
Teachers can make a huge difference to their students’ learning. Empower them and embed evidence-based practice in your school or college with this growing collection of CPD resources.
