Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Transformative Education for the Second Renaissance follows educator John P. W. Hudson through a personal and professional journey that led him to respond to what he sees as underlying fissures in the bedrock of educational practice. At the height of his career, he was seconded by the Richmond (BC Canada) school district to teach a demonstration class in the Nanashan Xian Middle School in Shenzhen, China, at the request of the school, and philanthropists Joe and Margaret Li, initiators of the project and sponsors. His assignment was to demonstrate and explain Western teaching methods to educators and other interested parties including university students and their professors from various parts of China, local and national education officials, teachers at the Nanshan Xian middle school (where he lived and taught for 2 years), and civic officials as well. Often a television camera was in the room, and most days there were adults observing.Throughout his career, Hudson was intensely interested in how children learn, how and why they thrive or fail, educational philosophy, and how educational infrastructures and practices impact learners and professionals alike. After teaching Music, English and business education for 20 years at the junior high school level, Hudson turned his sights to the elementary level and taught intermediate classroom for the last 13 years before going to China. All of these experiences left him with lingering questions which came into sharp focus in China, where traditional practices are entrenched.Primarily, Transformative Education for the Second Renaissance explores history, philosophy, research, politics and real human stories to encapsulate the driving forces of education that need adjustment, particularly assessment. Hudson describes the transition from analog to digital as the Second Renaissance, and how findings in brain research characterize how our understanding of learning has changed in modern practice from transmissive to transformative. Not a traditional academic treatise, Hudson’s book reads as easily as if you were engaging with him in a coffee shop, yet his reasoning and surprising conclusions will truly resonate with experienced educators. Hudson’s goal is to kick-start discussion about the changes he proposes, and frame a narrative to move education into our rapidly changing educational landscape. Although not a book on methods, this foundational book will change how you think about teaching. Hudson hopes his newest book will lead to lively discussion, critical debate, and meaningful change in every learner’s life.…
