Visible Learning Plus™
Learn the actions and practices that will maximize student achievement in your school…
Visible Learning Plus™ is specifically designed for school-based teams. Through on-site professional development, implementation, and coaching, educators learn to systematically examine instructional practices to determine the collective and individual “impact” on student achievement and learning. By focusing time, energy, money, and resources on practices and strategies that are proven effective, educators can easily differentiate instruction to directly affect student outcomes.
Teachers & Leaders:
- Effectively differentiate instruction through the Visible Learning Plus™ framework.
- Demonstrate more efficacy, knowing how to make adjustments with individual students.
- Know clearly how to create and sustain effective classrooms, with the tools to move forward in instructional leadership.
- Leverage Visible Learning Plus™ principles and strategies to make better use of Data Teams and PLCs.
Students:
- Become more engaged, with reduced behavioral issues.
- Realize improved student ownership of learning, they are aware of where they’ve been, where they are today, and where they’re going.
- Gain higher achievement, tied to explicit standards.
The Leadership and Learning Center has partnered with Cognition Education and John Hattie to bring Visible Learning Plus™ to schools across North and South America through three powerful seminars and enhanced by custom on-site collaboration with Center experts:
Take the First Step…
Visible Learning Plus™ Foundation Seminar
This seminar introduces you to the practices of John Hattie’s internationally acclaimed research in his 2009 book, Visible Learning: A Synthesis of Over 800 Meta-Analyses Relating to Achievement. This research involved 15 years, many millions of students, and represents the largest ever evidence-based research into what actually works in schools to improve learning. In this interactive session, you will examine the research into the major effect sizes that contribute to improved student learning outcomes. We will take you beyond the book to show you how to take the first steps in discovering those actions and practices that will have the greatest effect on your school/system’s student outcomes.
This seminar is available on-site at your school/system with one of our Center Professional Development Associates, or publicly at one of these locations:
- Atlanta, Georgia—February 28-29, 2012 Learn More

Taking the Next Steps…
Evidence into Action Seminars & On-Site Implementation
After experiencing the powerful introduction to Visible Learning Plus™ through our Foundation Seminar, you have the opportunity to partner with The Center and our experienced experts to take “evidence into action.” Through our Evidence into Action seminars, we will work together with you to take a highly customized approach to gathering the evidence of what works in your school/system today, as well as to select new actions and practices that will profoundly improve student outcomes in the future.
- Evidence into Action Seminar: Part 1
- One-day seminar with the option to add on-site implementation visits by a Center Professional Development Associate
- Evidence into Action Seminar: Part 2
- A follow-up one-day seminar which occurs 6-12 weeks after Part 1, during which time teachers and leaders will gather evidence and implement practices learned in Part 1, as optionally guided by a Center Professional Development Associate. Part 2 includes the option to add on-site implementation visits and coaching by a Center Professional Development Associate
