Description
"This ground-breaking book was written to help teachers do the seemingly impossible - engage in one-to-one and small-group teaching and learning experiences with twenty-five to thirty students in the classroom. The innovative model is based on the concept of learning stations - carefully designed and equipped classroom areas in which four to six students work together to accomplish a specific educational task. Learning stations may be as simple as a table and chairs used for specific show more learning discussions, or as "high tech" as two or three computers networked together sharing a printer, an area for videotaping, or an area for watching videotapes or videodisk. The educational plan for using learning stations is the defining feature of the model. The teaching and learning design presented offers a commonsense, effective strategy for integrating technology and effective teaching to provide the personalized learning students need today." "Step-by-step, it takes the reader through the transition from the traditional to the technology-based classroom, and from an authoritarian teaching model to a more collaborative one. Readers will appreciate this ready-to-use resource, filled with detailed explanations, sample plans, dozens of classroom examples, and a real understanding of teacher concerns about incorporating new technology and new methods into their teaching. The author has thoroughly pilot-tested, revised, and debugged the suggested plans and activities in the classroom."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
