Sommario/riassunto |
|
"In her new book, The World of Work (WOW) Advantage: A Roadmap for School Teams, author Suzette Lovely provides a compelling guide that encourages educators to reimagine their work so that they can best prepare their students for the future. In this book, Suzette explains to the reader the importance of focusing on the future. The book aims to develop in the reader an understanding of the future ready learner and provides instruction on how to turn students into future ready learners. In order to achieve this, the book focuses on learning as the focal point for action and introduces the reader to four touchstones that will guide their development towards a more future focused classroom. Each touchstone provides educators with the methods and strategies for implementation necessary to develop their students into future ready learners. Through this book, readers will learn how to bring their classroom into the 21st century and teach students the learning skills necessary to succeed in the future"-- |
