David Ausubel is well known for his famous quote: 'The most important single factor influencing learning is what the learner already knows. Ascertain this and teach him accordingly'. But few know about the importance of his assimilation theory of meaningful learning and retention, which holds many more instruction-altering insights. This book explores the key elements of the theory and what it means to learn meaningfully. It then links the theory to highly practical implications teachers can use day-to-day in all aspects of their teaching.
