Developing learners who know where they are in their learning, where they’re going, and how to get there—in other words, learners who are assessment-capable—is one of the principal aims of Visible Learning. However, we cannot help students be assessment-capable learners if teachers are not assessment-capable themselves. Teachers create assessment-capable learners through various targeted “moves” designed to:

Increase teacher clarity
Use the right teaching strategies at the right time
Provide effective feedback to learners
Model effective learning strategies themselves

On-Your-Feet Guides (OYFGs) provide you with the ultimate “cheat sheet” to implement effective change in your classroom while in the moment of teaching. Designed for accessibility, and providing step-by-step guidance, the OYFGs are written by experts who take research-based practices and make them doable for the busy teacher.

Each On-Your-Feet Guide is laminated, 8.5”x11” tri-fold (6 pages), and 3-hole punched.

Use the On-Your-Feet Guides

When you know the “what” but need help with the “how”
As a quick reference to support a practice you learned in a PD workshop or book
To learn how to implement foundational practices
When you want to help your students learn a specific strategy, routine, or approach, but aren’t sure how to do it yourself
