Book Description
A practical guide to deeper instruction—a framework for challenging, engaging, and empowering students of all ages For schools to meet ambitious new standards and prepare all students for college, careers, and life, research has shown unequivocally that nothing is more important that the quality of daily instruction. Learning That Lasts presents a new vision for classroom instruction that sharpens and deepens the quality of lessons in all subject areas. It is the opposite of a 'teacher-proof' solution. Instead, it is predicated on a model of instruction that honors teachers as creative and expert planners of learning experiences for their students and who wish to continuously grow in their instructional and content knowledge. It is not a theoretical vision. It is a model of instruction refined in some of the nation's most successful public schools—schools that are beating the odds to create remarkable achievement—sited primarily in urban and rural low-income communities. Using case studies and examples of powerful learning at all grade levels and in all disciplines, Learning That Lasts is a guide to creating classrooms that promote deeper understanding, higher order thinking, and student independence. Through text and companion videos, readers will enter inspiring classrooms where students go beyond basics to become innovators, collaborators, and creators. Learning That Lasts embraces a three-dimensional view of student achievement that includes mastery of knowledge and skills, character, and high-quality work. It is a guide for teachers who wish to make learning more meaningful, memorable, and connected to life, and inspire students to do more than they think possible.

Book Description
Organisations today operate in a fascinating world where change is constant, fast and continues to accelerate. It is the combination of evolving developments such as technological advancements, globalisation and new ways of communicating through multimedia technologies that drive us to reorganise how we live, how we work, how we create value, and how we learn. These developments call for a Learning & Development policy and practice that supports professionals to be or become successful in this fascinating changing world. In other words: one of the core goals of Learning & Development is to support sustainable employability. Creating Impact through Future Learning introduces a model for High Impact Learning that Lasts (HILL) that is very much in synch with the demands of an agile organisation. The HILL model is about the learning of young adults, professionals, and experts. It is about the many possibilities to inspire and to support adults in their continuous learning and development process, aiming to create value for today’s and tomorrow’s society. It is about how designers of learning programmes – be it L&D officers or teachers in vocational and higher education preparing adults for professional life – can take a step forward to build the future of learning. A new mindset is needed to create a real impact.

Book Description
Imagine you could trace back 10, 20, 30, 40 years to the defining moments that taught you how to handle the roller coaster of life. That's exactly what authors Ron and Reina Bolles, along with 115 of their former students and colleagues, have done in "Learning That Lasts a Lifetime." Through a compelling series of powerful testimonies, the importance of arts education unfolds before your eyes. Think of this book as a mash-up of "Glee" and "Chicken Soup For The Soul" that takes a peek at the human side of "21st Century Readiness" for today's students. The back-stories, anecdotes, and lessons learned by students involved in one of the oldest show choirs on the West Coast illuminate what really matters in our schools. Regardless of their life paths, these people all found value in what they did in their high school choir and are applying it daily in their lives. Discover for yourself why these passionate and enlightening stories and thoughts transcend all types of arts classes in educational settings across the nation. "The most intelligent people I've met throughout my life have had a background in the arts." -Matthew Ferguson "Having an artistic outlet has helped me to be a more creative engineer and mathematician and has helped me relate to my students who have interests outside of my chosen career field." -Michelle Breaux "English and math may be the flesh and bone, but art is the heart." -Janna Kefalas

The book challenges the notion of the court and the monastic order as static institutions by examining how competition within and between them prompted major rethinking about the intellectual foundations of indigenous society and culture." --Book Jacket.
