Do you sense that some students have mentally ""checked out"" of
your classroom? Look closely and you'll probably find that these
students are bored by lessons that they view as unchallenging and
uninteresting. In this follow-up to The Highly Effective Teacher: 7
Classroom-Tested Practices That Foster Student Success, Jeff
Marshall provides teachers with a blueprint for introducing more
rigor to the classroom by: Reorienting themselves and their
students toward active learning-and establishing the habits that
allow it to flourish. Creating a classroom culture where students
aren't afraid to take risks-and where they grow as learners because
of it. Planning the same lesson at different levels of challenge
for different levels of development-and designing assessments that
gauge student progress fairly without sacrificing expectations.
Implementing inquiry-based activities that push students beyond
their comfort zones-and that result in well-rounded learners with
stronger character and sharper thinking skills. Leveraging the
latest research in the field as well as years of hard-won classroom
experience, this book offers practical strategies, replicable
examples, and thoughtful reflection exercises for educators to use
as they work to help students embrace the mystery, complexity, and
power of challenge.
