Topic F: Â Using the SOLO Taxonomy to Narrow Achievement Gaps
The SOLO Taxonomy (Biggs & Collis, 1982) is “one of the most powerful models for understanding when to move student from surface- to deep-learning” (Hattie, 2013). Â It aligns to evidence-based practice and helps identify when to move students from ‘knowing’ to making links and connections between different concepts and ideas. Â It can also be used to design differentiated learning tasks that, when coupled with attainment-based grouping (rather than ability-grouping), can be effective in narrowing achievement gaps. Â This webinar will show the best ways to:
- How to use SOLO to design differentiated learning tasks that enable students to deepen their learning
- The ways in which SOLO supports students in developing metacognition, self-regulation, self-efficacy, and engagement
- How to recognise and respond to each state of SOLO so as to deepen learning and close the achievement gap for all students
