In educational settings today, it is
nonsense to allow:
- Learning experiences that are fun
but do not have productive applications of concepts and
skills.
- Instructional decisions devoid of
a research base to guide practice.
- Excessive preparation and
management for teachers, leaving less energy and enthusiasm for
teaching.
- A predominance of
beginning-thinking tasks when high-level thinking is
needed.
- Students who are passive
listeners instead of active learners and responsible
participants.
- Bored students!
- Bored teachers!
In high-achieving,
student-respected learning environments,
teachers should not
be working harder than their students.
