دانلود کتاب Transforming Classroom Practice: The Best of ASCD's Update Newsletters

Great ideas and great programs are as varied as the minds that conceive them and try them out. In that spirit, this book brings together articles from ASCD's Update newsletters on some of the most interesting and ambitious ideas and trends in education today, including bilingual education, constructivism, inclusion, integrating the curriculum, multi-age classrooms, multiple intelligences, and preparing students for the workplace. The book is filled with examples of real schools that are making a profound difference in the lives of their students, from the New City School in St. Louis, Missouri, known for its unique application of the theory of multiple intelligences, to the La Salle Academy in Providence, Rhode Island, which has gained attention for its program supporting students' social and emotional growth. Readers curious about how schools are successfully working to meet the diverse and changing needs of students will be encouraged and inspired by the rich variety of approaches featured in this collection.
