In this fascinating and practical show, Ben White is joined by Paul Cline and Mike Hobbiss to explore why students so often struggle to work independently and why this isn’t simply a problem of motivation. Drawing on cognitive science and classroom experience, they discuss how independent learning needs to be deliberately designed: giving students clear knowledge of what to do, building beliefs that success is achievable and worthwhile, and helping them develop the habits and resilience to push through both practical and emotional barriers. Essential listening for teachers and school leaders.
