Whole-Child Teaching: A Framework for Meeting the Needs of Today's Students - Hardcover
Description
by James D. Trifone (Author)
The book discusses the failed reform initiatives of the 20th century's "one size fits all" model for American education. A recommendation is made to adopt a systemic change in how, why, and what we teach, which takes the form of a new whole-child framework. This new educational narrative fosters a more learner-centered, constructivist, interdisciplinary, and meaningful approach to learning. Positive education offers educators new strategies to develop character strengths and promote well-being in their students.
