Both child and parent love it, and after reading this book, I finally have a sense for why. As an educator and as a homeschooling parent of one middle-schooler and one going on college visits, this book has given me a lot to think about. It might have been more transparent if Tavenner had mentioned the large amount of funding her public charter schools get from private sources, though. ( ) I've read a few books around the concept of redesigning our education / schooling - Mindset by Carol Dweck, Mathematical Mindsets by Jo Boaler, The Maths Fix by Conrad Wolfram and they all seem to talk about one common thing - self-directed learning and growth mindset. It would definitely be great if they all work on ONE educational structure. Though a good number of concepts I had read earlier, I found the 'Building Blocks for Learning' to be profoundly enlightening. It is a testimony for the hard work and toil that the author and her team has put in. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
"Diane Tavenner, founder of Summit Public Schools, offers a blueprint for a better way to educate our children, based on the revolutionary lessons, insights, and methodology she and her faculty developed over 15 years at their famously successful charter schools in California and Washington, which she is now introducing to public school systems across the country that Summit is partnering with to transform education and better prepare our children to lead fulfilled and successful lives. Diane Tavenner founded the first Summit charter school in 2003, developing and perfecting a personalized, project-based curriculum that puts students in charge of their own learning. The school developed a learning plan for every student. They engaged the students by appealing to them with interdisciplinary, real-world projects, rather than passively learning and memorizing in a classroom environment. They created mentorship groups, where students would talk through their goals and help each other solve problems, as well as meet one-on-one with their mentor, weekly. By internalizing a sense of purpose, self-direction, self-sufficiency, and collaboration, students learn the cognitive and life skills needed to navigate the next phases of their lives. Virtually 100% of Summit's original 400 students went on to attend four year colleges"-- Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
