Making Minds is a controversial critique of our education systems.
The author is a school leader 'at the forefront of scientific and
technological advancement in schools' who, as an American, 'felt
comfortable taking on the British establishment' (The Times
Educational Supplement).
Making Minds is written for general readers- especially parents-
as well as educational professionals. The book examines the
underlying limitations that have been accepted in education over
the past two thousand years. The author challenges common
assumptions about education through evidence-based, political,
ethical, and emotional arguments, as well as examining case studies
such as university admissions and the autism 'epidemic'.
Making Minds describes a more productive scientific approach to
learning, drawing on recent research findings, particularly in the
US and UK. The author illustrates how new research methods, new
technologies, and very recent discoveries in neuroscience that
will, in the end, allow us to make minds.
