How can you create an authentic learning environment-one where
students ask questions, do research, and explore subjects that
fascinate them-in today's standards-driven atmosphere? Author
Larissa Pahomov offers insightful answers based on her experience
as a classroom teacher at the Science Leadership Academy, a public
high school in Philadelphia that offers a rigorous college-prep
curriculum and boasts a 99 percent graduation rate. Pahomov
outlines a framework for learning structured around five core
values: inquiry, research, collaboration, presentation and
reflection. For each value, she presents: A detailed description of
how the value can transform classroom practice and how a ""digital
connection"" can enhance its application. A step-by-step outline
for how to implement the value, with examples from teachers in all
subject areas. Solutions to possible challenges and roadblocks that
teachers may experience. Suggestions for how to expand the value
beyond the classroom to schoolwide practice. Anecdotes from
students, offering their perspectives on how they experienced the
value in the classroom and after graduation. The framework is a
guide, not a prescription, and middle and high school
teachers-individually or as a team-can use it to structure whatever
content and skills their current school or district requires. The
book also includes suggestions for how to integrate technology into
inquiry-based education, but the principles and approaches it
describes can be applied successfully even in places without
abundant technology. Both practical and inspiring, Authentic
Learning in the Digital Age is an indispensable handbook for
reinvigorating teaching and learning in a new era.
