Download or read book What School Could Be written by Ted Dintersmith and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring account of teachers in ordinary circumstances doing extraordinary things, showing us how to transform education What School Could Be offers an inspiring vision of what our teachers and students can accomplish if trusted with the challenge of developing the skills and ways of thinking needed to thrive in a world of dizzying technological change. Innovation expert Ted Dintersmith took an unprecedented trip across America, visiting all fifty states in a single school year. He originally set out to raise awareness about the urgent need to reimagine education to prepare students for a world marked by innovation--but America's teachers one-upped him. All across the country, he met teachers in ordinary settings doing extraordinary things, creating innovative classrooms where children learn deeply and joyously as they gain purpose, agency, essential skillsets and mindsets, and real knowledge. Together, these new ways of teaching and learning offer a vision of what school could be—and a model for transforming schools throughout the United States and beyond. Better yet, teachers and parents don't have to wait for the revolution to come from above. They can readily implement small changes that can make a big difference. America's clock is ticking. Our archaic model of education trains our kids for a world that no longer exists, and accelerating advances in technology are eliminating millions of jobs. But the trailblazing of many American educators gives us reasons for hope. Capturing bold ideas from teachers and classrooms across America, What School Could Be provides a realistic and profoundly optimistic roadmap for creating cultures of innovation and real learning in all our schools.

Download or read book Temporary Stages written by Jo Beth Gonzalez and published by Heinemann Drama. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High school is a time for powerful learning, and theatre instruction can provide powerful lessons - for the stage and for life. With teens on the cusp of adulthood and capable of grappling with complex themes and issues, theatre is an ideal medium for critical inquiry into their values, beliefs, and feelings. In Temporary Stages, Jo Beth Gonzalez illustrates one approach to critical learning through theatre that harnesses its full educational potential. Jo Beth Gonzalez calls her approach the Critically Conscious Production-Oriented Classroom (CCPOC). The CCPOC offers a context for students to build, extend, and deepen their notions of critical thinking and expands the boundaries of your teaching. Temporary Stages includes three case studies of how Gonzalez makes the CCPOC work in diverse aspects of her theatre program, including: practicing democracy in theatre design spotlighting oppression in play production addressing controversial topics in writing and performance. With these thematic backdrops, Gonzalez gives you not only clear guidelines about how to teach students in the CCPOC way, but also how to model critical awareness by questioning traditional assumptions about casting, play selection, design, staging, and directing. She also offers insight into how reflective writing increases the potency of the learning in the CCPOC. Make your classroom more than a place to create theatre. Take your students beyond the edge of the stage and into a space where they question the world. Read Temporary Stages and discover an approach to teaching that fosters critical awareness as teacher, student, and script intersect.
