en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 apr 2017
Rethinking Readiness offers a new set of competencies to replace the narrow learning goals of No Child Left Behind and, in chapters written by some of the nation s most well-respected education scholars, explores their implications for schools.

Today s students must cultivate the full range of intellectual, interpersonal, and intrapersonal capacities that have been grouped together under the banner of deeper learning. Rethinking Readiness focuses on how educators and policy makers should move forward to provide the educational experiences that students need to become truly well prepared for college, careers, and civic life, including changes in curriculum, teacher evaluation, and student assessment.

As state leaders chart a new course for K 12 education in the Every Student Succeeds Act era, Rethinking Readiness offers a succinct and compelling vision for a new agenda for school reform so future generations can prosper in a rapidly changing world.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Today's students must cultivate the full range of intellectual, interpersonal, and intrapersonal capacities that have been grouped together under the banner of "deeper learning." Rethinking Readiness focuses on how educators and policy makers can move forward to provide the educational experiences that students need to become truly well prepared for college, careers, and civic life. The book offers a succinct and compelling vision for a new agenda for school reform in a rapidly changing world.

"A provocative and insightful road map--rooted in research and wisdom of practice--about bringing deeper learning to scale across all levels of system change. Rethinking Readiness is a must-read for everyone committed to equity and excellence, reinforced by the inclusion of multiple examples of effective practice, including the identification of risks, opportunities, and examples of misapplications embedded in practice."
--Ray Pecheone, professor of practice, Stanford University

"Rethinking Readiness addresses what needs to be said today about high school 'reform' in general and reforms that reflect new ways of looking at education for vocation. The contributors cover everything, from closely observed actual classroom exchanges and lesson plans, hard data from the field at large, to important thinking about the past and future. A major contribution to our work today."
--Deborah Meier, senior scholar, New York University's Steinhardt School of Education, and MacArthur Fellowship recipient

"The editors have assimilated leading experts in the nation to provide a very thought-provoking work on the purposes of secondary education, access and opportunity, and suggestions for implementation of deeper learning for college and career readiness in schools. Parents, educators, and policy makers should find this compilation an excellent resource."
--Terry Holliday, chair, National Professional Teaching Standards Board, and former commissioner, Kentucky Department of Education
