JUST TELL THEM
THE POWER OF EXPLANATIONS AND EXPLICIT TEACHING
Zach Groshell, PhD

a time when “teacher talk” is often undervalued. Drawing on the science of
learning, it explores essential techniques for showing, telling, demonstrating,
modelling and presenting, so that even the most complex concepts become
accessible to all learners.
Zach offers both new and experienced teachers clear explanations
and examples of the most relevant research on explicit instruction.
