Building Powerful Learning Environments
Building Powerful Learning Environments takes a close look at the trends of the Post-Digital Era through the prism of how systems of education can meet the needs of our times and offers a systemic approach to creating a different canvas for learning that aligns to these changes. At the center of the book are the concepts of a learning environment and a culture of partnerships. A learning environment has traditionally been viewed as something that educators created and sustained inside their schools. Building Powerful Learning Environmentsexpands this understanding to embrace families, communities, other learning institutions, and businesses not as helpers, but as co-builders of a powerful learning environment. It demonstrates that schools have to take the first step in this direction by becoming the center of a new educational culture - a culture of partnerships. This book looks into various ways of creating this culture at district, school, and classroom levels. It provides practical guidance, strategies, and tips as well as some conceptual understanding of what can be done to create and support this culture at various levels of educational leadership.
Confident Parents, Confident Kids
Confident Parents, Confident Kids lays out an approach for helping parents—and the kids they love—hone their emotional intelligence so that they can make wise choices, connect and communicate well with others (even when patience is thin), and become socially conscious and confident human beings. How do we raise a happy, confident kid? And how can we be confident that our parenting is preparing our child for success? Our confidence develops from understanding and having a mastery over our emotions (aka emotional intelligence)—and helping our children do the same. Like learning to play a musical instrument, we can fine-tune our ability to skillfully react to those crazy, wonderful, big f...
The Better Elementary School
Responsible elementary schools strive to ensure that all pupils know more today than they knew yesterday thereby better preparing the youngsters for tomorrow’s lessons. However essential that aim, achieving the goal faces serious challenges due to what confronts quality classroom teachers daily: “It’s not the budget crisis or standardized testing…It’s the enormous variation in the academic level of students coming into any given classroom…” Our current educational system’s rigid graded format, i.e., first grade, second grade, is unable to accommodate this extraordinary pupil diversity. By habit rather than wise thinking, schools assign 25-30 children to classrooms and a teach...
With a Little Help from My Friends
This conversation-based approach accelerates language acquisition for EL students and advances academics and social–emotional learning for all. The authors present a research-based pedagogical model to help K–12 teachers modify the way they plan and implement their lessons to better support the linguistic, cognitive, and social–emotional development of culturally and linguistically diverse students. “The authors remind us that we are working too hard in our roles as providers of knowledge and literacy. Rather, a focus on collaborative interactions among students better enables their autonomy, mutual learning, and self-directed paths to meaning and knowledge. The teacher onus is reduc...

Creatividad verbal como dominio
La creatividad es una de las exigencias sociales del siglo XXI. En este sentido, debe destacarse la reciente inclusión en PISA del pensamiento creativo como nueva competencia evaluable (OCDE, 2019). Por otra parte, al igual que no existe una sola manera de ser inteligente, no existe una sola manera de ser creativo. Así, a lo largo de los diez capítulos de este libro, se realiza un recorrido por el proceso de investigación de la creatividad verbal como dominio específico. Este dominio de la creatividad verbal posee el valor del pensamiento divergente en la resolución de problemas, la producción y la creación de ideas de contenido verbal. Asimismo, ayuda a anticipar y entender los matices de un texto, a aplicar a la realidad el conocimiento adquirido e, incluso, a crear significado de forma conjunta con el texto ya escrito por un autor. Tomando como punto de partida los fundamentos teóricos y metodológicos que sustentan el estudio de la creatividad en el campo de la psicología, esta obra ofrece una panorámica completa y detallada de las distintas investigaciones teórico-prácticas que se han llevado a cabo sobre esta cuestión.
