Scaling-up Higher Order Thinking by Anat Zohar
This open access book addresses the evasive problem of why truly effective educational innovation on a wide scale is so difficult to achieve, and what leaders may do about this.
Professor Anat Zohar holds the Besen Family Chair at the Seymour Fox School of Education, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and is the director of the Center for Teachers’ Learning and Development at the Hebrew University. Her main research fields are the development of students' higher order thinking and metacognition, teachers' knowledge and professional development, and the challenges involved in scaling up instructional innovations across whole school systems. She has over 70 publications, including 8 books. Between 2006 -2009 she served as the Director of Pedagogical Affairs in the Israeli Ministry of Education, and led a pedagogical reform aimed at teaching for higher order thinking and deep understanding throughout the Israeli school curricula (k-12). In 2009-2010 she was a member in the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, NJ. Since 2010 she is a faculty member in the Mandel Leadership Institute. She is currently chairing the Israeli committee “Adapting Curricula and Study Materials for the 21st Century”.
