About
Visible Learning | Mind Frames
At the heart of making teaching and learning visible in Missouri are passionate educators who use
effective instructional practices. In a 2013 interview, John Hattie lists eight mind frames of
passionate educators. It is believed that educators who possess these mind frames are high
impact educators. Pairing these mind frames with effective teaching/ learning practices creates
ideal learning environments for all students—especially diverse learners. (The interview
