Summary:Drawing from research in developmental and educational psychology, cognitive science, and the learning sciences, Five Teaching and Learning Myths Debunked addresses some of the most commonly misunderstood educational and cognitive concerns in teaching and learning. Multitasking, problem-solving, attention, testing and learning styles are all integral to student achievement but, in practice, are often muddled by pervasive myths. In a straightforward, easily digestible format, this book unpacks the evidence for or against each myth, explains the issues concisely and with credible evidence and provides busy K-12 teachers with actionable strategies for their classrooms and lesson plans.
