The Art of Teaching: Best Practices from a Master Educator by Patrick N. Allitt

2.0

Rather than how to teach more effectively, havingthe greatestimpactonthemoststudents, this is more about how to be successful in the current system. 100% believe that experience of learning is vastly more effective. I was dismayed to see that he was more interested in fitting students into the current system rather than trying to evolve to reach more students. He seemed to have no regard for students with any sort of difficulties that might impair their ability to learn the traditional way, and seem to discourage deeper thought such as: while we may have more trees in this country than ever before, young trees aren't able to sequester more than a quarter of the carbon yearly that mature trees can, they have listened to 50% survival rate, and when we cut down trees that are more than a century old it would take at least 100 saplings to replace them in terms of carbon impact.
