Back to Learning: How Research-Based Classroom Instruction Can Make the Impossible Possible
Parsons, Les
Stenhouse Publishers
Based on the most up-to-date research, "Back to Learning" presents straightforward analysis and practical guidance on confronting bullying, taming the digital universe, and changing the troublesome trend in students' entitled attitudes toward learning and grades. "Back to Learning" gives teachers the background they need to: (1) understand how the brain learns and incorporate that knowledge into teaching methods; (2) individualize instruction in any learning/teaching situation; (3) acknowledge the bullying crisis in schools and learn how to solve the bullying puzzle; (4) recognize the limits of standardized testing and better prepare students for being tested; and (5) appreciate where the digital revolution might lead and the implications for students' current and future roles.
