Inhaltsangabe:

A comprehensive guide to teaching, learning and literacy prek-12 and across the curriculum. This book includes theory and practical applications to inform teaching and learning through The Four Lenses of Learning and The Five Reading, Writing, Talking Processes. “It is very important that teachers, administrators, and school boards, as well as state and federal education organizations, work toward implementing evidence- based and long standing best practices in their approaches to teaching, learning and assessment. These approaches should have a goal of overcoming all students’ frustration by engaging them in experiences that enhance their ability to learn. The Four Lenses of Learning and The Five Reading, Writing and Talking Processes presented in this book propose ways that teachers can enable students to learn more, to enjoy learning, and to become more productive learners.”
