Description

Discover how education innovations can produce astonishing results in student success both in and out of school. The educators featured in this book were motivated by the conviction that even the best status quo education was not serving current student needs. They responded with radical changes that tap into recent ideas about educational transformation: personalization, student-driven curriculum, student agency and co-ownership of learning direction, school-sheltered student entrepreneurship, student-led civic projects, creativity education, and product-oriented learning. Readers will find carefully researched and detailed stories of on-the-ground models where students learn empathy, cooperation, creativity, and self-management, alongside rigorous academics. Together these stories provide insight into the process of innovation and the elements that can make change successful. An Education Crisis Is a Terrible Thing to Waste will inspire educators in ordinary situations to take extraordinary actions toward a new paradigm of education in which all students can flourish. Review "Any educator yearning to create a learning environment focused on student agency, relevant learning, autonomy, and personalized learning will value the pathways identified by the stories in this book. Any educator who is uncertain about change may find just the inspiration needed to ignite a spark by reading this book."--School Administrator"An impressively organized and seminal work of collective scholarship, An Education Crisis Is a Terrible Thing to Waste is unreservedly recommended for both college and university library Contemporary Educational Issues collections and supplemental curriculum reading lists."--Midwest Book Review About the Author Yong Zhao is a Foundation Distinguished Professor in the School of Education at the University of Kansas and a professorial fellow at the Mitchell Institute for Health and Education Policy at Victoria University in Australia.
