Generative Learning in Action helps to answer the question: which
activities can students carry out to create meaningful learning? It
does this by considering how we, as teachers, can implement the
eight strategies for generative learning set out in the work of
Fiorella and Mayer in their seminal 2015 work Learning as a
Generative Activity: Eight Learning Strategies that Promote
Learning. At a time when a great deal of attention has been paid to
the teaching and learning from the perspective of effective
instruction, Generative Learning looks at the flip side of coin and
considers what is happening in the minds of the learner. This book
takes a teachers-eye view of a range of theories of learning and
keeps their application to the classroom firmly in mind through the
use of case studies and reference to day to day practice.
Generative Learning in Action also discusses the key considerations
and potential limitations of each of the strategies, as well as how
you could implement these in your own practice and more widely
across a school. The authors bring a wealth of experience to this
topic. Zoe Enser was a classroom English teacher for over 20 years
as well as head of department and school leader in charge of
improving teaching and learning. She is now lead specialist advisor
for Kent with The Education People. Mark Enser has been a geography
teacher for the best part of two decades as well as a head of
department and research lead. He is the author of Making Every
Geography Lesson Count and Teach Like Nobody's Watching as well as
a TES columnist.
