DESCRIPTION:
J. Kennington said Repetetive. It contains very interesting things that can be taken into consideration for making a class. The problem with it is that since many teachers and parents write in it, it quits getting your interest half way down the book.
The insights will speak to all those interested in how people learn collaboratively and how schools can improve.. Building on observations by participants in this school, this book reveals how children and adults learn through participation in activities of mutual interest. Here, Rogoff collaborates with two master teachers from an innovative school in Salt Lake City, Utah, to examine how students, parents, and teachers learn by being engaged together in a community of learners. This book advances the theoretical account that Barbara Rogoff presented in her highly acclaimed book, Apprenticeship in Thinking
"Clearly presented and well-written, open to both general and specialist readers Taking the full message of this book on board is not only a challenge to schooling but also to parenting and the wider society."--Professor Hazel Francis, Institute of Education, University of London
