What is Ofqual saying?
• New GCSEs are of greater demand than the qualifications they are replacing.
• New GCSEs include questions that reward students who are able to draw together their understanding of content from across the course.
• Where appropriate – more extended writing.
• Greater emphasis on problem-solving with a reduction in overly structured or bite-sized questions.

Einstein quotes:
• ‘Genius is one per cent talent and 99% hard work.’
• ‘It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.’

Angela Duckworth & Martin Seligman:
• “Self discipline predicted academic performance more robustly than IQ. Self-discipline also predicted which students would improve their grades over the course of the school year, whereas IQ did not’.
• “Self-discipline outdoes IQ in predicting academic performance of adolescents.”
Psychological Science (2006)

• Self efficacy is commonly defined as the belief in one's capabilities to achieve a goal or an outcome.
• Students with a strong sense of efficacy are more likely to challenge themselves with difficult tasks and be intrinsically motivated.
Self-efficacy (belief)

The impact of Praise:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWv1VdDeoRY
![Page 20: watch?v=8IK qmLG7v1w - Thomas Keble Schoolthomaskeble.gloucs.sch.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Y10... · 2017-09-22 · Welcome to the Y10 parents’ GCSE Information Evening 2017](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050310/5f71f916be880f47013f8092/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What to praise:
• Effort, struggle and persistence despite setbacks.
• Strategies for learning and choices.
• Choosing difficult and challenging tasks.
• Risk-taking.
• The process of learning.
• Improvements.
Avoid praising:
• Intelligence.
• Natural talent.
• Speed of completion.
• Being “the best”.
• False praise.
“Children who are praised for their intelligence learn to value
performance, while children praised for effort and hard work
value opportunities to learn.”

Feedback challenges students to think about and produce excellent work
• Model examples provided for students
• Explicit reference to success criteria
Feedback is close to the learning
• Emphasis on lesson-by-lesson peer and self-assessment
• Verbal feedback resulting in instant feedback for students
No opting out – all students respond to and improve their work
• Students given Directed Improvement and Reflection Time (DIRT) to act upon feedback
Feedback policy is manageable for teachers

“If nothing has changed in long-term memory, nothing has been learned.”
Kirschner, Sweller & Clark (2006)
“The purpose of the curriculum is to build the architecture of long-term memory.”

• Simply seeing something repeated times (like re-reading information) is unlikely to embed something in memory.

Testing: What the research says…
• ‘Testing under the right conditions is where learning takes place.’ (Wiliam)
• ‘Taking a memory test not only assesses what one knows, but also enhances later retention, a phenomenon known as the testing effect.’ (Roediger)
![Page 35: watch?v=8IK qmLG7v1w - Thomas Keble Schoolthomaskeble.gloucs.sch.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Y10... · 2017-09-22 · Welcome to the Y10 parents’ GCSE Information Evening 2017](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050310/5f71f916be880f47013f8092/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Making an effective flashcard
• “Chunk” the learning down
• Each flashcard should be on one key idea or concept
• The key information only should be summarised on one side
• Use diagrams, bullet points etc
• On the back, put key words and possible exam questions on this concept
• Use Quizlet on-line

• Top students ‘go the extra mile’: the non-required work
• Agree the learning time table (not just homework) – make it public and track the additional effort beyond what is essential
• SAM Learning
Independent Learning
