Visible Learning Foundation Day Training

In Partnership with Corwin, CESA #1 is pleased to be a provider of the Visible Learning Foundation Day...

As a result of attending this one-day seminar, participants will identify and discuss the most important messages from the Visible Learning research, learn about the five strands of Visible Learning, and know the difference between the influences that ‘do’ and ‘do not’ make a significant difference to student achievement. The seminar provides practical activities and take-away tools.
