Description:
This book introduces an approach that today’s school leaders,
as learning leaders, can use to help greater numbers of students
find success while shifting education to a learner - centric enterprise.
It is refer to as the All Kinds of Minds model, which involves
these components:
Expertise in the science of learning, based on the understanding of
eight constructs that form the mind ’ s ingredients for learning
and the belief that differences are variation , not deviation.
Evidence gathered from multiple sources, including using a phenomenological
approach as part of the data necessary to understand
how specific students learn.
A problem-solving model that uncovers the complexity and richness
of how a child learns, identifying learning assets as well
as weaknesses and discovering passions and affinities that can
drive scholarship, careers, and other life choices.
A set of five core beliefs about how all students are treated.
A commitment to align school and educational practices and policies
to the way students learn and vary in their learning. |
