Book Overview: 

Built on 25+ years of research, John Hattie’s 10 Mindframes for Leaders: The Visible Learning® Approach to School Success shows how the way leaders think drives the practices that most impact student achievement. In Chapter 5, Hammond tackles mindframe #5: “I strive for a challenge rather than merely ‘doing my best.” This chapter offers leaders a roadmap for helping teaching staff level up their practice so that students build the skill to carry more of the cognitive load during instruction.
