Tools for Teaching Conceptual Understanding, Secondary: Corwin Teaching Essentials

Autor Julie Stern, Juliet Mohnkern, Krista Ferraro
en Limba Engleză Paperback – aug 2017

În literatura academică de specialitate, se resimte adesea o lacună între teoriile abstracte despre gândirea critică și instrumentele metodologice concrete necesare profesorilor de nivel secundar. Tools for Teaching Conceptual Understanding, Secondary vine să acopere acest gol, oferind o foaie de parcurs pentru tranziția de la simpla acumulare de informații factuale la stăpânirea conceptelor care pot fi transferate în contexte noi. Considerăm că forța acestui volum rezidă în abordarea sa pragmatică, transformând viziunea pedagogică în strategii aplicabile la clasă.

Remarcăm o structură riguroasă, organizată în șapte capitole care adresează progresiv elementele designului curricular, stabilirea unei culturi a învățării profunde și proiectarea evaluărilor continue. Această progresie asigură că educatorii nu primesc doar metode de predare, ci și un sistem de monitorizare a înțelegerii elevilor. Volumul extinde cadrul propus de Concept-Based Curriculum and Instruction for the Thinking Classroom de H. Lynn Erickson, aducând date noi și resurse specifice pentru nivelul gimnazial și liceal, unde complexitatea abstractizării crește.

În contextul operei autoarei, lucrarea reprezintă o evoluție firească a ideilor explorate în Tools for Teaching Conceptual Understanding, Elementary. Dacă în volumul anterior accentul cădea pe protejarea curiozității native a copiilor, aici Julie Stern și coautoarele sale se concentrează pe rigoarea academică necesară secolului XXI. Această abordare este complementară cu viziunea din Visible Learning for Social Studies, Grades K-12, unde autoarea analiza maximizarea instruirii pentru o viață civică informată. Prin comparație cu Concept-Based Mathematics de Jennifer Wathall, care se limitează la o singură disciplină, volumul de față oferă un cadru interdisciplinar versatil, esențial pentru orice curriculum modern.

Recenzii

"Stern tears down the false dichotomies of traditional vs innovative education and provides the clarion call and practical tool kit for developing creativity by building and applying knowledge through Concept-Based learning. Every practitioner needs this book to juxtapose what worked well in the 20th Century with what is essential in the 21st Century and beyond."
"If you are ready to have students really learn, get ready to be amazed.  Here is the complete guide to creating your very own concept-based classroom.  I have never read a book filled with so many great ideas that can be used in any classroom."
"This book is as essential to a teacher utilizing concept-based teaching as the approach of concept-based learning is essential to teaching."
"I can't recommend this book enough! Exceptionally practical pedagogical techniques that are steeped in bags of authentic research. Addressing how children learn, how teachers can plan lessons within a conceptual framework, specific and useful differentiation techniques and feedback methods--so many meaningful and highly effective ways to move learners forward, preparing them for the future in a meaningful way." 
"This book addresses the need for students to learn critical dispositions and skills which go beyond traditional discipline knowledge and are essential for student success as innovators in the 21st century."
"While most good educators recognise the incredible value of teaching conceptually, it is challenging. Julie Stern, Krista Ferraro and Juliet Mohnkern have created accessible, practical baby steps for every teacher to use."
“The authors of Tools for Teaching Conceptual Understanding have crafted an incredible resource for teachers in secondary education.  This book provides a strong rationale on the importance of concept based curriculum development in the classroom for the 21st century.  The book delivers a framework on how to build a concept based classroom from the ground up, offering practical, easy-to-apply tools and techniques that will allow teachers to redesign their curriculum in a rigorous way, while providing a classroom environment of deep learning.  From developing great lesson plans to on-point assessments that target conceptual understanding, this book is an incredible resource for classroom teachers”.
“Perhaps the most significant question every educationist asks today is how to meet the needs of all learners in a classroom. Conceptual learning teaches for deep understanding, and enables students to find patterns and make connections thus providing intellectual dignity. In the section on differentiation, there are clear action steps with examples as support for reaching out to all students. A must read for all those committed to concept-based teaching and instruction!”
"Julie Stern has truly “drilled down” the concept-based framework, providing an understandable guide for teaching and assessing conceptual understanding. It should be a “go to” resource for every teacher!"
"Stern’s method provides a lucid framework to deepen conceptual understanding. Building upon the foundation laid by Erickson and Lanning, this approach provides tangible strategies for classroom teachers to nurture deeper learning."
"As the product, and facilitator, of a topic-based, coverage-centered education for some four decades, discovering the value of a concept-based approach to teaching and learning has caused a paradigmatic shift both in my classroom and in my own intellectual journey. Julie Stern´s book builds upon the best of recent educational theory and research to guide teachers on how to transform our students from fact-collectors into conceptual experts as they discover and transfer their understandings of the world around them, and ultimately, seek to solve real-world challenges."
"Tools for Teaching Conceptual Understanding  is filled with assessments and ideas for teaching students to think conceptually in the classroom.  Teachers can learn tools for developing student thinking and how to continually assess for conceptual understanding as learning happens.  I recommend this book for anyone who is looking to develop lessons and assessments to support deep, conceptual thinking in their classroom."
