�When students know how to learn, they are able to become their own teachers.� �Nancy Frey, Douglas Fisher, and John Hattie Imagine students who describe their learning in these terms: �I know where I�m going, I have the tools I need for the journey, and I monitor my own progress.� Now imagine the extraordinary difference this type of ownership makes in their progress over the course of a school year. This illuminating book shows how to make this scenario an everyday reality. With its foundation in principles introduced in the authors� bestselling Visible Learning for Literacy, this resource delves more deeply into the critical component of self-assessment, revealing the most effective types of assessment and how each can motivate students to higher levels of achievement.
