John. D. Bransford, Ann. L. Brown, Rodney. R. Cocking, “How people learn” (Vol. 11). Washington, DC, Publisher: National Academy Press, 2000.
How People Learn is a seminal work that synthesises research on human learning, cognitive science, and instructional practices. It examines how neuroscience developments and empirical studies on cognition can inform instructional strategies to optimise learning. The book aims to bridge the gap between research and educational practice, providing insights into how teaching methodologies can support students in achieving their full intellectual potential. It highlights the critical role of well-structured curricula, effective instructional strategies, and an understanding of how people process and retain knowledge.
