Barak Rosenshine's Principles of Instruction are widely recognised for their clarity and simplicity and their potential to support teachers seeking to engage with cognitive science and the wider world of education research.

In this concise new booklet, Rosenshine fan Tom Sherrington amplifies and augments the principles and further demonstrates how they can be put into practice in everyday classrooms.

The second half of the booklet contains Rosenshine's original paper Principles of Instruction, as published in 2010 by the International Academy of Education (IAE) - a paper with a superb worldwide reputation for relating research findings to classroom practice.

Together with Sherrington's insightful and practical guidance, it forms a powerful booklet that no teacher can afford to be without.

Expensive, contains no new ideas...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 May 2020

Verified Purchase

Is pains me to have to write a negative review of this guide, but when something is written in such apparent bad faith, I think it deserves it.

Experts and consultants, one would hope, gain their status by offering new ideas or coming up with innovative solutions to problems. This 'book' (at almost £10 for a mere 42 pages, it must be pointed out that it is little more than a pamphlet) does neither. It offers a jumble of pedagogical tips and anecdote filed under each of the Rosenshine's original principles (I hope the man himself is getting a hefty cut!). The real gold is in the reproduction of the work of Rosenshine himself, which has been printed in the final 20 pages of this text. Top tip: Rosenshine's article is available free online. For even the novice teacher, it is surely better to read, think about and discuss the original with colleagues than to waste your time and money on this, at best, tepid interpretation of it.

If the original is available for free, it makes you wonder what the motivation for writing this was.....cha-ching!

Only 45 pages of new material - overpricing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 May 2019

Verified Purchase

It’s well written what’s and explains the principles well but make you aware it’s 45 pages on new content and reprint of Rosenshine paper published in American educator , steep for £9 in my mind.

Ok but probably enough online about it to make purchasing it redundant

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 April 2020

Verified Purchase

This was recommended to me at various teacher training events but I’m not sure to be honest. It’s OK but I find it quite hard to follow and take anything meaningful away from it that wasn’t said in the CPD that we did (where it was recommended!)

I would say look online where this is summarized anyway. You don’t need the book. Although if you want the book, it’s teeny tiny so it’s not gonna take up much room!

A no nonsense highly practical primer on Rosenshine for great professional learning and practice.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 May 2019

Verified Purchase

For any teacher and school leader, this is simply a no nonsense highly practical and accessible 50+ page primer on Rosenshine for great professional learning and practice. Sherrington packages Rosenshine’s 10 Principles of Instruction into 4 focussed strands, and with clarity and many an additional practical example from across the curricular bandwidth, he provides, aided by the excellent Caviglioli illustrations, a professional learning golden nugget which should be in the hands and the practice of all teachers.
The book also includes by way of appendix Rosenshine’s pamphlet on the 10 principles. As a school leader I can not recommend this book more highly.

Excellent resource guide to teachers and trainee tutors

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 December 2021

Verified Purchase

For past 3 months I have been studying how to tutor learning about learning theories etc. Now this book is so helpful in advising the best ways to teach and the author has taken Rosenshines principles of instruction and broke them down into 4 strands that are both logical and so helpful when building confidence in lesson planning. This as the work book has really given me confidence in my journey into teaching.

I would say to any trainee teacher or tutor, buying this book and the workbook will really help you. It’s a valuable tool to keep by your side at all times. It’s small enough to fit in a bag and trust me this will be with me for a long time.

Also check out the authors master class on YouTube, this book follows it very well. Well done Amazon on acquiring this title. It should be a teachers best seller

Get a handle on the latest "theory" to make Ofsted happy!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 July 2022

Verified Purchase

Educational theories fall in and out of favour, this appears to be the latest idea to get excited about. Like all the best theories it draws together a lot of good ideas that most professionals already make use of and frames them in a new way. You'll recognise some of the "star" names of current research, one in particular jumps out which is Doug Lemov (he's definitely worth reading too). This book is wonderfully concise, I managed to read it in one sitting (I normally find my enthusiasm for these types of books wanes before I'm half way through). It summarises Rosenshine's principles very neatly with some good supporting examples. If you have an Ofsted coming up and want some new (and not so new) ideas to throw into the mix, this could trigger some great ideas.

The best guide to classroom instruction?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 July 2019

Verified Purchase

It is hard to imagine a more useful summary of well-founded classroom instructional practice than Tom Sherrington's book. Presented in an easily-digestible style, complemented with excellent visuals, your copy will, if you are anything like me, sprout sticky notes of scribbled insights. In may cases, the ways of enacting the principles will be familiar to teachers. But the point is not to ask "Do I do this?", but rather to ask "How well do I do this?" For that reason the book will be of great benefit to both expert teachers and novices. Most powerfully, it could be used in schools as the basis of collaborative professional development, with teachers meeting together, proposing strategies to implement and reporting back in a spirit of group accountability. There is no doubt that "Rosenshine's Principles in Action" will be read and reread for years to come. and may set a trend in authors having the courage to write books which are brief, direct, and straight to the point.

Rosenshine's simplicity amplified with classroom examples throughout

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 May 2019

Verified Purchase

A brilliantly quick, but well written reminder of the excellent work of Rosehnshine. The principles have always seemed clear to me, but Tom adds a depth of in classroom reality of what this might look like in practice along with really useful examples from the coal face. The conclusion finishes with a really useful reminder of the need for the generic principles to be applied in a subject specific domain in order for real cohesion and success. Brilliant read that can be easily dipped in and out of. @ckbateman
