Product Description

Review

"This book offers practical suggestions for how to create a learner-centered environment, which I believe teachers want to do-they just need to know how!" (Judi Elman, English Teacher )

"I loved the connections that were made between the suggested practices to improve teaching and real life uses of those practices!" (Brigitte Tennis, Head Teacher )

"This is one of the most well-written books on educational theory that I have read, because it goes to the heart of teaching-the students." (Betty Brandenburg Yundt, Fifth Grade Teacher )

"Well-organized, it practices what it preaches. The authors used varied techniques to build the readers' understanding of learner-centered concepts, techniques, and advocacy. The evidence for learner-based principles and techniques provides credibility to the concepts."

(Ellen Carlton Herbert, Teacher )

Product Description

Learner-centered classroom practices and assessments focus on learning partnerships between teachers and students. Teachers are the role models for continuous learning, and they take on leadership roles within the overall educational system, bringing together students, peer teachers, school staff, parents, and community members to support students in the lifelong process of learning, growth, development, and achievement.

All instructional methods and assessment tools within the learner-centered model are based on research from educational psychology, with core principles addressing cognitive and metacognitive factors; motivational and affective factors; developmental and social factors; and individual difference factors affecting each learner.

This lively new guide to the learner-centered classroom offers teachers a wide range of strategies for teaching and assessment. Included are interactive training exercises for teachers, self-assessments, reflection tools, a generous collection of illustrations, glossary, research resources, index, and more.
