School Learning Laboratory

The specialist literature on learning usually pays littleattention to the everyday learning processes of the students, expert school knowledge is rarely documented and the act of learning often remains shrouded in darkness. There are countless methodological and teaching instructions for lessons,but hardly any on the question of what the students actually do in practice to achieve the principal goal of the lesson: ‘learning something’.

This book shifts the perspective by showing how teaching and learning can be thought about, planned, implemented and reflected upon from the learner'spoint of view. The contributions focus on how students learn, prepared and guided by teachers with effective working and learning methods: project methods, personalised learning, direct instruction,lessons on working or specific learning systems basedon the Freinet, Jenaplan and Montessori educationalconcepts. Other contributions present some proven feedback and coaching concepts and explain the preconditions and opportunities of learning via digital media.

• Effective ways of learning and working in the classroom
• Tried and tested concepts for coaching how to learn and getting feedback
• Learning methods from the students' perspective
