What will it take to create truly contemporary learning
environments that meet the demands of 21st-century society, engage
learners, and produce graduates who are prepared to succeed in the
world? What skills and capacities do teachers and leaders need to
create and sustain such schools? What actions are necessary? Bold
Moves for Schools offers a compelling vision that answers these
questions-and action steps to make the vision a reality. Looking
through the lenses of three pedagogies-antiquated, classical, and
contemporary-authors Heidi Hayes Jacobs and Marie Hubley Alcock
examine every aspect of K-12 education, including curriculum,
instruction, assessment, and the program structures of space (both
physical and virtual), time, and grouping of learners and
professionals. In a new job description for teachers, Jacobs and
Alcock highlight and expound on the following roles:
Self-navigating professional learner. Social contractor. Media
critic and media maker. Innovative designer. Globally connected
citizen. Advocate for learners and learning. With thought-provoking
proposals and practical strategies for change, Bold Moves for
Schools sets educators on the path to redefining their profession
and creating exciting new learning environments. The challenge is
unprecedented. The possibilities are unlimited.
