Stuart Kime on the science of learning

Stuart discusses some key research findings presented in the Great Teaching Toolkit Evidence Review. These findings suggest that elements of effective classroom practice can be enhanced by teachers knowing more about how pupils learn and applying this knowledge in the classroom; addressing this, Stuart identifies and discusses a handful of key ideas informed by research in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience, and explain why he thinks teachers should know about them.
