Description
Peer through the eyes of students. See school their way.
When we act on what students show us, valued outcomes follow. Students know what engages and bores them and can offer dynamic insight into how to pique their best. When we know how to listen, we can increase interest, motivation, and achievement. This book shows readers how to tap into this student insight and adjust thinking to see learning through their eyes. Experience new levels of engagement and growth as you learn to:
- Build a culture of support, safety, and membership through academic excellence
- Nurture the growth of engaged teaching
