Description
Working away from trends in government policy, Transforming Education takes a future-oriented re-imagining of schools with a focus on four innate human capacities: collaboration, critical reflection, communication, and creativity.
Miranda Jefferson and Michael Anderson draw together examples of practice from around the world to provide a reimagining of education. They show how our schools can be sustainably transformed to be places of support, challenge, and joy in learning, responsive to studentsβ needs and the needs in our workplaces and wider society.
Readers are empowered to use knowledge and experience to create the reality they would like to see in their school, building engaged, innovative, and active learning, pedagogy curriculum, and leadership.
Key ideas are summarised at the end of each chapter along with an extensive referencing and bibliography, and a supporting glossary.
