It's time for the educational slugfest to stop. 'Traditional' and
'progressive' education are both caricatures, and bashing cartoon
images of each other is unprofitable and unedifying. The search for
a new model of education - one that is genuinely empowering for all
young people - is serious and necessary. Some good progress has
already been made, but teachers and school leaders are being held
back by specious beliefs, false oppositions and the limited
thinking of orthodoxy. Drawing on recent experience in England,
North America and Australasia, but applicable round the world, The
Future of Teaching clears away this logjam of bad science and slack
thinking and frees up the stream of much-needed innovation. This
timely book aims to banish arguments based on false claims about
the brain and poor understanding of cognitive science, reclaim the
nuanced middle ground of teaching that develops both rigorous
knowledge and 'character', and lay the foundations for a
21st-century education worthy of the name.
