"If schools are looking for a panacea to exam accomplishment, successful self-regulation skills could be the solution they are looking for."

Despite being minimal in cost, metacognition and self-regulation seem to be shrouded in mystery. Yet they regularly top the best interventions for students in terms of impact.

Thinking about Thinking aims to expose some of the most powerful effects that they can have in your classroom, school and your students' lives.The ideas, suggestions and activities contained in this book will help active practitioners in the classroom, Senior Leaders in their curriculum design and pedagogy, and ultimately, the students in their care. Metacognition is not a quick fix solution, but this book cuts through the reams available on this dense subject with considered care and levity.

  • Discover the one question you can ask students which gives a 93% accuracy rate at academic success
  • Help students to distinguish between a learning goal and an ego goal
  • Find out how you can learn the order of the planets without realising
  • Discover how paperclips can make quieter classrooms
  • Learn how to make notes which actually work
  • Find out the nine key strategies to learning more embedded
  • Clearly written in sections, this book is robustly-researched yet is also filled with practical strategies to employ the next day.

    Stephen Lockyer has been teaching for the past sixteen years. Passionate about teaching and learning, his book, "100 Ideas" for Bloomsbury was a bestseller. When not speaking, teaching or writing, he forces his four young children outdoors to 'build character.'
