If we teach in the way that human brains learn, both students and
their teachers will thrive! This book aligns evidence from the
learning sciences on how and what students need to learn with
classroom practice (pre-K-12). It demonstrates, with hands-on
examples, how a change in educational mindset (rather than in
curriculum) can improve student outcomes on both standardized tests
and a breadth of 21st-century skills skills. Written collectively
by classroom teachers, administrators, parents, and learning
scientists, this book shows readers how to co-construct and
reimagine an optimal educational system. Making Schools Work offers
three case studies of schools, including a statewide system, that
are all realizing a 6 Cs approach to learning focused on
collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative
innovation, and confidence. The text documents the ever-evolving
implementation process, as well as outcomes and the ongoing work of
stakeholders. Readers can use this resource to create an education
for all children that is culturally responsive, inclusive,
effective, and fun.Book Features: Helps educators teach in the way
that human minds learn. Jointly written in accessible language by
teachers, administrators, parents, and learning scientists. Offers
hands-on ways to reimagine classrooms without investing in new
curricula. Puts teachers in the driver's seat, reminding them of
why they teach. Provides culturally responsive, inclusive,
effective, and fun strategies. Offers children the possibility of
learning the skills they will need for 21st-century skills success.
