Now in e-book format!Using actual classroom examples, this book demonstrates the many ways educators can utilize a variety of tools and techniques to advance learning in their K-12 classrooms. Each chapter introduces a tool and includes examples of how students and teachers have used these tools to inspire their learning while improving processes. Written by two teachers, the classroom examples show how specific problem-solving, planning, or improvement tools can help students learn. Benefits of using specific tools in the classroom are the focus of each chapter. You'll be able to adapt the tools to your own classroom environment, using current, real-life examples drawn from the authors' own experiences and those of others. "I could teach from this book easily, and I think teachers could pick it up and use the ideas with little or no outside help."
