Planning for Progression in Learning
From Shallow to Deep Learning
Shallow surface learning (extrinsic motivation)Learning as memorising to retain information for a short period of time to be reproduced and then potentially forgottenLearning to retain and use information – but not necessarily being motivated by the learningLearning as acquiring knowledge, skills and methods – learning how to learn
Learning as making sense and abstracting meaning (which requires thinking and often struggle and effort) to relate parts of the subject matter to other ideas or concepts within the subject and to the real worldDeep learning (intrinsic motivation)Learning as interpretation – coming to comprehend and understand the issue in a different way – creating deep meaning by struggling to re-interpret the knowledge
From Säljö, in Atherton, J S (2011)

Planning for Progression in Learning
Adapted from http://www.nicurriculum.org.uk/
Progression in learning is about teachers enabling pupils to:• know and understand more – in quantity, breadth and depth;• think more critically – research, question, analyse information,
break ideas apart and piece information together;• apply their learning to unfamiliar contexts;• communicate better – structure responses in clearer and
better ways; and• become more capable – think about thinking and learning,
learn from mistakes, manage their own• learning and work with others.

Planning for Progression in Learning
Adapted from http://www.nicurriculum.org.uk/
To make real progress, pupils need:• clear development in all aspects of learning;• the interest and motivation to learn;• the confidence to try, struggle, and even fail;
and• the ability to learn from experience.

For Want of a Nail
For want of a nail, the shoe was lost.For want of a shoe, the horse was lost.For want of a horse, the rider was lost.For want of a rider, the battle was lost.
For want of a battle, the kingdom was lost,And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
