This book highlights an important truth: for students to grasp and
retain more complex content and concepts, educators need to ensure
their students have a much greater stake in their own learning.
Just getting kids to comply with adult wishes is not going to be
enough anymore. The contributors to this volume represent a wide
range of expertise, from the the conceptual to the practical, from
research to reality. Collectively, they outline the path to new and
revolutionary educational models. The book is a must-read for every
educator and anyone else interested in getting all students to
higher levels of learning. David T. Conley, professor, University
of Oregon, and CEO, Educational Policy Improvement Center
