Deeper learning, dialogic learning, and critical thinking are
essential capabilities in the 21st-century environments we now
operate. Apart from being important in themselves, they are also
crucial in enabling the acquisition of many other 21st-century
skills/capabilities such as problem solving, collaborative
learning, innovation, information and media literacy, and so on.
However, the majority of teachers in schools and instructors in
higher education are inadequately prepared for the task of
promoting deeper learning, dialogic learning, and critical thinking
in their students. This is despite the fact that there are
educational researchers who are developing and evaluating
strategies for such promotion. The problem is bridging the gap
between the educational researchers' work and what gets conveyed to
teachers and instructors as evidence-based, usable strategies. This
book addresses that gap: in it, leading scholars from around the
world describe strategies they have developed for successfully
cultivating students' capabilities for deeper learning and transfer
of what they learn, dialogic learning and effective communication,
and critical thought. They explore connections in the promotion of
these capabilities, and they provide, in accessible form, research
evidence demonstrating the efficacy of the strategies. They also
discuss answers to the questions of how and why the strategies
work. A seminal resource, this book creates tangible links between
innovative educational research and classroom teaching practices to
address the all-important question of how we can realize our ideals
for education in the 21st century. It is a must read for
pre-service and in-service teachers, teacher educators and
professional developers, and educational researchers who truly care
that we deliver education that will prepare and serve students for
life.
