Measuring Human Return: Understand and Assess What Really Matters for Deeper Learning

Autor Joanne J. McEachen, Matthew Kane
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 oct 2018
The overarching exploration of this book is the importance of engaging learners (and parents and communities) as active partners in every aspect of their learning. With deep learning, pedagogy is no longer solely the concern of the teacher. Learning design, measurement, assessment and all other elements of pedagogical practice extend now to students as well, whose roles and responsibilities are consistent not only with learning, but with those once blanketed under teaching as well.

Recenzii

The book really hits the mark. The best thing about it is the in-depth discussion of systems. It is with great pleasure that I read and re-read this book. It delivers a good combination of big vision with specific strategies and techniques.

This is just what we need in our district. This engaging book will help change teams support their system to learn how to effectively measure deeper learning. Readers will be drawn in by great examples from around the globe of educators putting students first. It is an energizing read. This book calls us to take action for all of our students today and for our future. 

The vast experience and knowledge of the authors in major international educational reform efforts is a major strength of this book. As is the focus on Deep Learning as both a framework for organizational change and for the education of humanity. One of the unique themes this book offers is its emphasis on making education “human” and focusing on “return” in order to improve society.

Self-understanding and self-regulation are foundational skills to support autonomous learners and are fundamental for working in socially embedded environments in the real world or online. This comprehensive book provides insights, tools, and strategies for deeper, healthier, learning systems.



This book is a guide for all teachers, principals, and stakeholders in education who are aware that learning should be deep and contribute to humanity. It nails down what learning should be about with structured examples, exercises, and tools that, when applied, will lead to deeper learning for everyone.

Measuring Human Return is a great summary of the work that is being done in our region with schools that have embraced Deeper Learning. When school systems have the support to embrace systemic change and teachers have the support to design deeper learning experiences for their students, everyone succeeds. Our classrooms need this support so that our students gain the necessary global competencies that will prepare them for the world today and tomorrow. This is the work we all need to embrace in our schools.
