In this webinar we present and discuss the book “Planning and Analyzing teaching. Using the variation theory of learning”. We explain the underlying principles of the theory and show how variation can be used to enhance teaching and students’ learning. Examples from different school subjects and grades are used to illustrate how a theory can be powerful tool for teachers.
