Help students move from surface-level learning to the transfer of
understanding. How do social studies teachers maximize instruction
to ensure students are prepared for an informed civic life? VISIBLE
LEARNING (R) for Social Studies, Grades K-12 shows how the field is
more than simply memorizing dates and facts-it encapsulates the
skillful ability to conduct investigations, analyze sources, place
events in historical context, and synthesize divergent points of
view. The Visible Learning framework demonstrates that learning is
not an event, but rather a process in which students move from
surface-level learning to deep learning, and then onto the transfer
of concepts, skills, and strategies. Encouraging learners to
explore different facets of society, history, geography, and more,
best practices for applying visible learning to social studies
curriculum are presented through: * A scaffolded approach,
including surface-level learning, deep learning, and transfer of
learning * Examples of strategies, lessons, and activities best
suited for each level of learning * Planning tools, rubrics, and
templates to guide instruction Teachers must understand the impact
they have on students and select approaches to maximize that
impact. This book will guide you through the process of identifying
the right strategy for the right time to successfully move students
through surface, deep, and transfer learning.
