Highlights reforms needed to ensure pre-service teachers are equipped with the knowledge and skills to implement evidence-based teaching practices

This rubric outlines a set of capabilities to do with the evidence-based practice of explicit instruction.

How does a national agency support the effective implementation of evidence, particularly at scale? Learn how the Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) plans to address the implementation challenge.

AERO’s ‘science of learning and development’ project will support teachers and educators to incorporate knowledge about how brains and bodies develop into their practice, beginning with early childhood education and care (ECEC) services.

Explicit instruction breaks down what students need to learn into smaller learning outcomes and models each step. It allows students to process new information more effectively.

See how the Year 1 teachers at Loxton Primary School use explicit instruction in their classroom.

See how Mastery Learning is implemented in different classrooms at Trinity College.

Mastery learning is a way of designing units of work so that each set of tasks focuses on a particular learning objective and students must master a task to move onto the next one.

This checklist focuses on implementing mastery learning.
