Working Memory and Learning: A Practical Guide for Teachers

by Tracy Packiam Alloway and Susan E. Gathercole

Book Overview

A good working memory is crucial to becoming a successful leaner, yet there is very little material available in an easy-to-use format that explains the concept and offers practitioners ways to support children with poor working memory in the classroom.

This book provides a coherent overview of the role played by working memory in learning during the school years, and uses theory to inform good practice.
