Opis

Learning how to learn is an essential preparation for lifelong learning. Whilst this is widely acknowledged by teachers, they have lacked a rich professional knowledge base from which they can teach their pupils how to learn. This book aims to make a contribution to the creation of such a professional knowledge base for teachers.
