Chapter 2 Flashcards
What did John Hattie’s research analyze?
Over 50,000 studies involving 240 million students to identify factors affecting academic performance.
What is Effect Size (d)?
A statistical measure ranging from 0 to 2.0, indicating the impact of interventions on learning; d ≥ 0.40 is effective, d ≥ 0.60 is excellent.
What are some findings from Hattie’s research?
Most educational strategies are effective, but some have a greater impact on learning than others.
What educational strategies have been shown not to work?
Summer vacations, television effects, and frequent school changes.
Top Influence #1: Student Expectations
(d = 1.44) Students’ beliefs about their academic performance greatly affect their learning, often influenced by past experiences
Top Influence #2: Constructivist Programs
(d = 1.28) Learning builds on prior knowledge, utilizing distributed practice over concentrated practice.
Top Influence #3: Response to Intervention (Attitude)
(d = 1.07) Students’ reactions to teacher feedback shape their learning; viewing corrections as useful aids progress.
Top Influence #4: Teacher Credibility
(d = 0.90) Students’ perceptions of the teacher as a valid information source significantly impact their learning.
Top Influence #5: Formative Evaluation
(d = 0.90) Conducted during teaching to regulate and improve the learning process.
Top Influence #6: Micro Education
(d = 0.88) Analyzing teaching videos helps improve nonverbal communication, boosting teacher confidence.
Top Influence #7: Classroom Discussion
(d = 0.82) Encourages communication skills by analyzing issues collectively, providing insights into student learning.
Top Influence #8: Interventions for Students with Disabilities
(d = 0.77) Strategies to assist students with learning difficulties can also benefit their peers.
Top Influence #9: Teacher Clarity
(d = 0.75) Clear communication of learning objectives and success criteria is essential for student understanding.
Top Influence #10: Feedback
(d = 0.75) Feedback helps students understand the teacher’s perspective on their information processing, allowing for improvement.
