It's good that he has "actions points" like Marzano now.

still wish he were more consistent. at the beginning, lectures get painted as evil, but later as ok.

Just Like her other book, it is so boringly written. The ideas seem interesting, but the presentation is dry, dry, dry.

Still a little jumpy. I wish this author would be more consistent in message. I think other authors, like David Perkins or John Hattie, or the Wiggins/McTigh team have said the same thing more clearly: if we want children to learn something, they need to 'do' the subject the way scientists 'do' science. However, that doesn't mean no lectures. That means shorter lectures, more activities, and more thinking about both.

So short! And it seems like most of this information and more is ALPS at Harvard

Some parts of this sound too wishy-washy and I'm not sure of the value of some of these routines...

not sure what page I'm on in this one. my copy is in the US and while it has been an interesting read so far, it didn't really grab me the same way that House of Leaves did...

David Hunter is on page 20 of The Art And Science Of Teaching: A Comprehensive Framework For Effective Instruction
I realize that this is based on several of the other's previous works, but it seems like he just wants us to go and buy those books instead of read this new one
