Where Thinking & Learning Meet - Lane Clark

Book and CD Rom

If it is our goal to see an increase in student levels of engagement and levels of high school retention, an improvement in student performance standards and learners skilled and ready to contribute to their world, then we have got to rethink what we are doing, and how we are doing it, in our schools.

We\'ve got to teach our kids how to think and how to learn. In Where Thinking and Learning Meet, Lane Clark challenges our individual and systemic educational beliefs and practices. She offers an approach to re-thinking and re-engineering how teachers teach and how learners learn.

Where Assessment  Meets Thinking and Learning Book and CD Rom

A symbiotic relationship exists between thinking, learning and assessment. Criteria, void of thinking, result in little more than ‘quantity’statements or statements of subjective ‘quality’ language. Neither stretches the learnerin their performance, and the latter results in confusion and often a need for moderation.

When a learner is provided with criteria, but is not given the opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of their elements, its use is compromised and the end result disappointing. This book is about the thinking and learning process. It’s about the relationship between assessment, thinking and learning. It’s where assessment meets thinking and learning!
