Becoming an Assessment-Capable Visible Learner, Grades 6-12, Level 1: Learner′s Notebook (Corwin Literacy) - Softcover

Continue the Journey of Visible Learning With Your Students

The power of Visible Learning is simple yet transforming: Help students understand how to learn, and they can become their own teachers. 

These notebooks are the first of their kind to continue the Journey of Visible Learning by helping students monitor their own progress. With an emphasis on developing and strengthening foundational metacognitive skills, the notebooks guide students to understand what they’re learning, why they’re learning it, and the strategies they need along the way. 

Designed to be used with the Becoming a Visible Learner Teacher’s Guide, and structured to support a year’s worth of learning, this resource gives you an actionable framework for bringing Visible Learning success to every student in your classroom.

Learner’s notebooks can be purchased as a Becoming a Visible Learner, Grades 6–12, Level 1 Classroom Set which includes 20 Learner’s Notebooks and a Teacher’s Guide designed specifically for grades 6–12. Additional Learner’s Notebooks, Grades 6–12, Level 1 are available in packs of 10.
