Welcome to the Making
Learning Visible Resources Weebly! This site provides resources and tools to
support learning in groups in the classroom and the staffroom. Most of the tools you will find here are intended for teachers, professional development designers and coaches, and administrators, though some are also designed to help families support student learning. Many also include ways to involve students more directly in teaching and learning decisions. Almost all of the tools emphasize greater intentionality combined with careful looking and listening. Making
learning visible is not a recipe; it will take time to discover and adapt the
tools and resources for your own setting. We hope you will find this site useful and enjoy exploring it. The
site includes five kinds of tools and resources:
1. Supporting Learning in Groups in the Classroom
2. Supporting Learning in Groups in the Staffroom
3. Documenting Individual and Group Learning
4. Engaging Families in Supporting Student Learning
5. Making Learning Visible Beyond the Classroom
Supporting Learning in Groups in the Classroom includes practical tools with suggestions for creating learning groups at the beginning of the school year, forming study groups in classrooms, and promoting a culture of dialogue. provides tools for forming adult study groups, hands-on activities for adults to explore learning groups and documentation for themselves, and conversation structures for discussing and reflecting on student learning.

Tools range from a refrigerator reminder to guidelines for parents interested in forming their own study group.
