Mastery Learning, with Jon Bergmann

Teacher, author, and learning expert, Jon Bergmann joins us to discuss mastery learning. Our conversation ranges from the basics of mastery learning to its benefits, how it connects to flipped learning, and how to get started implementing this approach in your classroom.

Much of the conversation revolves around Jon’s new book, The Mastery Learning Handbook: A Competency-Based Approach to Student Achievement. Jon believes this is his best work and says, “Everything I believe about education is in that book more than any other book I’ve ever written. And I think that the way to teach is mastery learning.” He also adds, “If you talk to people who’ve done this, they all say, I could never go back.” Visit AVID Open Access to learn more.
