Nine of John Hattie’s strongest influences, in one process

1. Spaced, not massed

   Assessment spread across the whole year, and often several years, instead of one chapter at a time.

2. Teacher clarity

   Students know in week one, in detail, what they will learn this year.

3. Assessment-capable students

   Students know what they’re expected to learn, what they’ve learned so far, and how the whole class is doing.

4. Formative evaluation

   Quizzes aren’t graded; they’re graphed, for students, classes, grade levels and whole schools.

5. Collective teacher efficacy

   Once teachers see their effect size, they know they can get the same results with any class.

6. Feedback

   Every week the graphs tell students and teachers whether the class is on track for the year.

7. Acceleration

   Students earn acceleration: seven perfect quizzes in a row, and they move on to the next level or a major interest of their own.

8. Relationships

   The class becomes a team, with the teacher as coach and every student counting toward the class total.

9. Management

   With the class working together toward a shared goal, behavior improves along with the learning.
