Letters to a Serious Education President
Foreword by Andy Hargreaves
Begin with "what and where the children are" to cultivate meaningful learning.
In this new edition of his original insightful collection, education luminary Seymour B. Sarason details how school reformers still have difficulty examining the differences between contexts of productive and unproductive learning. Originally written nearly 13 years ago, these letters challenge us to start with "what and where children are", inspiring and encouraging their natural curiosity for learning. The author discusses:
- An educational agenda beginning with children
- Educator preparation program reform
- School downsizing
- Dropping out as a response to an uncaring school culture
- A critique of the No Child Left Behind Act and more
- Grade Level: PreK-12
