There is a significant risk that the mainstream school system will cheat children out of some - if not all - of the education they deserve because a pervasive, hidden curriculum utterly fails to support the well-being of students and educators. Students are expected to act like data-processing machines, but real human beings do not act like machines. In his groundbreaking book Schooling for Holistic Equity, Don Berg explores the reasons for current high levels of student and teacher disengagement, the disconnect between educational goals and results, and the fauxachievement and shallow learning that prove woefully inadequate in preparing students for higher education or the workforce. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA leader with more than twenty years of experience in education, Berg lays out the foundation for a scientific understanding of deeper learning grounded in Self-Determination Theory and the primary human needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. He shows how the central problem in our schools has less to do with academic instruction and more to do with the psychology of learning. His model for educational design, called Catalytic Pedagogy, is a comprehensive plan to bring about large-scale, systems-level change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePsychological research shows us how to engage and motivate people, and recognizing human needs provides us with the exact guidance necessary to proceed as effective learners and teachers.

Children's psychological well-being is supported in K-12 schools that facilitate self-directed learning. The psychological well-being of children in mainstream K-12 schools is consistently diminished. Silver Lining: This good news can transform the bad news. Why do K-12 schools that facilitate self-directed learning serve less than 5% of all students in the USA despite over 100 years of good results? The systematic growth of school models that support self-directed learning has been stunted by hidden barriers. The hidden barriers also prevent more mainstream schools from sustainably adapting their practices to become more nurturing. The barriers are based on a theory of education that is wrong. K-12 policy makers at every level can remove those barriers by making an explicit commitment to ensuring that the schools they oversee support well-being. This book includes the Resolution to Build on Well-Being to Achieve K-12 Equity which you can take to your favorite policy makers to advocate for the well-being of all students.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52405690466577,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52405690827025,"sku":"NLS9781490743455","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781490743455.jpg?v=1758767701"},{"product_id":"education-can-only-be-offered-book-don-berg-9780999488805","title":"Education Can ONLY Be Offered","description":"This book provides a unique large-scale perspective on the challenges of K-12 education leadership today. Putting schools into the context of the four billion year history of Life suggests that one of the most marginal segments of the industry has the most to teach those in the mainstream. The mainstream is off-track because of understandable but mistaken ideas about learning and human nature that create a powerful illusion that misguides system-scale efforts to improve the outcomes of schooling. Dispelling the illusion requires educators to rethink the distinction between being a teacher and an instructor. Teaching needs to be about the creation of learning contexts while instruction is about helping students accurately grasp content. A more careful approach to instructing children is needed. The book presents design criteria to help schools change in the right way and a map of how school organizations can do better by both their teachers and students.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53186136113425,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53186136310033,"sku":"NIN9780999488805","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780999488805.jpg?v=1772376034"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-don-berg.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
