Description

The writers discuss: how students build knowledge, rather than just absorb it; how students approach learning within the constraints of what happens in their classrooms; how schools transmit the values that make for good learning; how teachers can be helped by a study of problem solving, strategy training and planning techniques; how students can learn through reading; how good learning can take place in our present school systems; and how schools can be changed to make learning more effective.
