We want students to master academic standards, and we want them to
be confident, adaptive, and socially responsible. Above all, we
want them to find meaning and satisfaction in their lives.
Achieving these goals requires a concerted focus on the
social-emotional skills that empower students in and beyond the
classroom. In Teaching to Empower, Debbie Zacarian and Michael
Silverstone explore what an empowered student looks like in our
increasingly diverse contemporary schools and prompt educators to
examine their own relationship to empowerment. The book's
evidence-based strategies and authentic examples show you how to
foster an inclusive culture of agency, self-confidence, and
collaboration that will give each of your students-regardless of
race, culture, language, socioeconomic status, abilities,
sexuality, or gender-the opportunity, responsibility, and tools to
become an active learner, thoughtful community member, and engaged
global citizen. Whether you're a preservice teacher, a classroom
novice, or a veteran, you'll find the practical guidance you'll
need to: Create inclusive and empowering physical learning spaces.
Set up self-directed learning and promote positive interdependence.
Promote student self-reflection. Teach the skills of collaboration.
Foster the self-advocacy that fuels deeper, more autonomous
learning. Partner more effectively with families and the community
to support student empowerment.
