Author Dr Roseanna Bourke takes the reader on a fascinating
exploration of learning: the theory, practice and young people's
take on it. What do you say to a young person who tells you her
brain is an eighth full? Or to the one who says he only knows he
has learned something when he receives a stamp or a sticker? This
book is about how learners conceptualise learning, how they
self-assess their own learning and why context matters. It shows
how, just as a chameleon changes colour, learners change and adapt
their approach to learning depending on the situation. It draws on
examples of learning by Years 7-8 students from the classroom and
out of school, looking at how their views and values are shaped and
how they satisfy their own learning needs. Dr Bourke is a senior
lecturer in the School of Educational Psychology and Pedagogy at
Victoria University and has previously worked as a teacher and
education psychologist. She currently teaches postgraduate courses
in learning and motivation, and in assessment and evaluation.
