Description
How can you create an authentic learning environment—one where students ask questions, do research, and explore subjects that fascinate them—in today’s standards-driven atmosphere? Author Larissa Pahomov offers insightful answers based on her experience as a classroom teacher at the Science Leadership Academy—a public high school in Philadelphia that offers a rigorous college-prep curriculum and boasts a 99 percent graduation rate. Pahomov outlines a framework for learning structured around five core values: inquiry, research collaboration, presentation and reflection. For each value, she presents:* A detailed description of how the value can transform classroom practice and how a “digital connection” can enhance its application.* A step-by-step outline for how to implement the value, with examples from teachers in all subject areas.* Solutions to possible challenges and roadblocks that teachers may experience.* Suggestions for how to expand the value beyond the classroom to schoolwide practice.
