Let’s start by consider a few ideas about LfL, its 5 principles, and how we might observe and identify these in classrooms and schools. | [[Image:Critical_lense.jpg|thumb|150px|FIgure 5A.]]Let’s start by consider a few ideas about LfL, its 5 principles, and how we might observe and identify these in classrooms and schools. | ||
We like to think about ‘seeing’ the LfL principles by using what we have come to call an ‘LfL Lens’ or set of ‘LfL Lenses’. What do we mean by lens? Figure 5A depicts a familiar image of spectacles or glasses that we can use to depict or stand in as a metaphor for what we mean by an LfL Lens. | |||

Let’s take our metaphor of the LfL lens a step further, and suggest that there are 5 different LfL lenses (spectacles) needed in order to ‘see’ all 5 LfL principles: | [[Image:LfL_lenses.png|thumb|300px|Figure 5B]]Let’s take our metaphor of the LfL lens a step further, and suggest that there are 5 different LfL lenses (spectacles) needed in order to ‘see’ all 5 LfL principles: | ||

Thinking ahead, you are probably already wondering why we don’t simply put all the LfL lenses together, in one! This way we could see all the 5 LfL principles at once in classrooms and schools. | [[Image:LfL_combined_lense.png|thumb|300px|Figure 5C]]Thinking ahead, you are probably already wondering why we don’t simply put all the LfL lenses together, in one!
