Research School Network: What happens when learning leaves the classroom? Part of the Big Question series: exploring how pupils learn independently beyond the classroom.

The Big Question Series

Teaching involves making hundreds of decisions every day. Many of those decisions are shaped by bigger questions about how pupils learn, what motivates them and how schools can help them succeed. Each webinar in The Big Question Series starts with one of those questions and explores what the evidence can tell us about it. Along the way, we will examine different perspectives, consider the implications for practice and reflect on what this might mean for our own classrooms.

What happens when learning leaves the classroom?

In this session, we will explore what the evidence can tell us about learning beyond the classroom. We will unpack the role of homework, revision, self-regulation, study habits and parental engagement, and how teachers can support pupils to learn independently.
