Praise for How Learning Works
‘How Learning Works is the perfect title for this
excellent book. Drawing upon new research in psychology, education,
and cognitive science, the authors have demystified a complex topic
into clear explanations of seven powerful learning principles. Full
of great ideas and practical suggestions, all based on solid
research evidence, this book is essential reading for instructors
at all levels who wish to improve their students’ learning.’
–Barbara Gross Davis, assistant vice chancellor for
educational development, University of California, Berkeley, and
author, Tools for Teaching
‘This book is a must-read for every instructor, new or
experienced. Although I have been teaching for almost thirty years,
as I read this book I found myself resonating with many of its
ideas, and I discovered new ways of thinking about teaching.’
–Eugenia T. Paulus, professor of chemistry, North
Hennepin Community College, and 2008 U.S. Community Colleges
Professor of the Year from The Carnegie Foundation for the
Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support
of Education
‘Thank you Carnegie Mellon for making accessible what has
previously been inaccessible to those of us who are not learning
scientists. Your focus on the essence of learning combined with
concrete examples of the daily challenges of teaching and clear
tactical strategies for faculty to consider is a welcome work. I
will recommend this book to all my colleagues.’
–Catherine M. Casserly, senior partner, The Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching
‘As you read about each of the seven basic learning principles
in this book, you will find advice that is grounded in learning
theory, based on research evidence, relevant to college teaching,
and easy to understand. The authors have extensive knowledge and
experience in applying the science of learning to college teaching,
and they graciously share it with you in this organized and
readable book.’
–From the Foreword by Richard E. Mayer, professor of
psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara; coauthor,
e-Learning and the Science of Instruction; and author,
