students from passive spoon-fed knowledge to creation and
acquisition of real learning: it sounds terrific. But how do you do
it? This book shows you how. In this updated and expanded second

constructivist learning a reality in your classroom. Creating and

learning examples to customize for any grade or classroom -
Checklists to help you evaluate your starting point, progress, and
goals - Practical assistance with issues surrounding student
assessment, differentiation, and the inclusive classroom - Ideas
for involving parents and community members - Ways to implement

and confidence. Get their minds working on proactive ways to bring

to discover new ways to search for information, process what they
find out, and translate it into meaningful knowledge for
themselves.
