Teaching One-Pagers: Evidence-informed summaries for busy educational professionals

by Jamie Clark

Ask any teacher and they would say workload is one of the biggest blockers to their professional development. Simply put, most teachers are time-poor and too busy to engage with educational research to improve their classroom instruction. One-pagers are ultra-concise, A4-sized summaries that share important ideas about good teaching. In this practical volume, Jamie Clark presents more than 55 evidence-informed one-pagers that help educators reflect on their practice, build pedagogical knowledge, and prompt professional conversations with colleagues.

This is the BEST book for teachers (at any stage of their career). 5*

I'm 9 years in next week and I still have SO much to learn. Teaching is hard and time consuming. It's almost impossible to stay up-to-date in educational literature as a full-time teacher but Jamie Clark provides the perfect solution through Teaching One-Pagers . Up-to-date research presented clearly.

I will definitely be coming back to reread this again!

Thank you Jamie for this helpful collection of key learning for educators everywhere. With brevity and style, you conveyed an immense number of key learnings and references — many of which I have added to my ‘to-read’ list! I cannot wait for Volume 2!!

[Matthew Rohrlach]

A handbook for any teacher, clearly and concisely summarising teaching pedagogy in an accessible way that promotes professional development in a busy profession. I will certainly be drawing upon this book for knowledge throughout my career.

A superb overview of most modern & robust research that has taken place into teaching effectively. It doesn't go into exceptional detail for each theory or their implementation, but explains the concepts clearly & provides all the references you could possibly need to delve further.

I was very keen to get my hands on Jamie Clark's 'Teaching One-Pagers', after having followed his work for many years, as well as being a part of the Apple Distinguished Educator program with him. Thus, I was very excited when in July this year, I finally got my hands on his book. And it did not disappoint. The subtitle for the book is 'Evidence-informed summaries for busy education professionals' and that sums it up perfectly. Jamie has done the hard work for teachers so that they can used evidence-informed practices in their classroom, by summarising a vast field of research. His book covers a huge range of topics from Explicit Instruction, to Activating Prior Knowledge to Great Homework. It is all presented in bite-sized chunks, complete with relevant diagrams and illustrations. If you work in education, or are just interested in the future of education, I recommend you get your hands on Jamie's book.
