Accelerated Learning by Alistair Smith

This book provides an easily accessible summary of what accelerated learning methods can offer and achieve. Organized into four chapters, this excellent volume gives the background to the accelerated learning approach, describes the use of the Accelerated Learning Cycle, gives advice on enhancing memory, summarizes good ideas to improve learning, and provides useful resources. Some of the learning principles in this book include- Meaningful learning involves risk; good teachers help learners negotiate risk. Anxiety paralyzes performance; good teachers provide structured challenge. Learning is about seeking and securing connections; good teachers take lots of opportunities to make connections. Combines the art of teaching with the science of learning and provides a tried-and-tested model with the theoretical underpinnings. You'll also have more than 200 ideas and activities that provide realistic solutions for teachers.
Mark Lovatt is Head of Science and Learning Co-ordinator at Cramlington Community High School in Northumberland, England. He has spent considerable time and energy researching, adapting and applying the ideas of accelerated learning to his subject. Mark's energy and enthusiasm is evident from the plaudits his training events receive.
