John Hattie’s ground-breaking book Visible Learning synthesized the results of more than 15 years research involving millions of students and represented the biggest ever collection of evidence-based research into what actually works in schools to improve learning.

​These High Impact Teaching Strategies (HITS) have been brought together here to support the thousands of increasingly collaborative and evidence-based conversations taking place between teachers in schools each day. These strategies provide teachers and teams with opportunities to observe, reflect on and improve a range of fundamental classroom practices.

10 effective strategies for learning

​The 10 HITS are a part of the repertoire of effective strategies that teachers can apply to the wide variety of learning needs students present with each day.
HITS have emerged from the findings of tens of thousands of studies on what has worked in classrooms across Australia and the world. Although HITS are highly effective strategies for increasing student learning they do not provide a complete framework for professional practice. Instead, HITS form part of the full set of instructional practices that contribute to comprehensive pedagogical model for teaching.
Explore the 10 HITS strategies
Strategy 1: Setting goals
Lessons have clear learning intentions with goals that clarify what success looks like. Lesson goals always explain what students need to understand, and what they must be able to do.
Strategy 2: Structuring lessons
A lesson structure maps the teaching and learning that occurs in class.
Sound lesson structures reinforce routines, scaffold learning via specific steps/activities. They optimise time on task and classroom climate by using smooth transitions. Planned sequencing of teaching and learning activities stimulates and maintains engagement by linking lesson and unit learning.
Strategy 3: Explicit teaching
When teachers adopt explicit teaching practices they clearly show students what to do and how to do it.
The teacher decides on the learning intentions and success criteria and makes them transparent to students, demonstrating them by modelling. The teacher checks for understanding, and at the end of each lesson revisits what was covered and ties it all together (Hattie, 2009).
Strategy 4: Worked examples
A worked example demonstrates the steps required to complete a task or solve a problem. A scaffolded learning approach reduces a learner's cognitive load, so skill acquisition can become easier
Strategy 5: Collaborative learning
Collaborative learning occurs when students work in small groups and everyone participates in a learning task. There are many collaborative learning approaches, each uses varying forms of organisation and tasks.
Strategy 6: Multiple exposures
Multiple exposures provide students with multiple opportunities to encounter, engage with, and elaborate on new knowledge and skills.
Strategy 7: Questioning
Questioning is a powerful tool and effective teachers regularly use it for a range of purposes. Effective questioning yields immediate feedback on student understanding, it supports informal and formative assessment and helps capture feedback on the effectiveness of teaching strategies.
Strategy 8: Feedback
Feedback informs a student and/or the teacher about the student’s performance relative to the learning goals. Effective feedback will redirect or refocus teacher and student actions, so the student can align their effort and activity with a clear outcome that leads to achieving a learning goal.
Strategy 9: Metacognitive strategies
Metacognitive strategies teach students to think about their own thinking. When students become aware of the learning process, they gain control over their learning.
Strategy 10: Differentiated teaching
Differentiated teaching methods are used to extend the knowledge and skills of every student in every class, regardless of their starting point. The objective is to lift the performance of all students, including those who are falling behind and those ahead of year level expectations.
