About this listen
Kids today can learn more from a five-minute YouTube video or AI chatbot than they can from a full day of lectures. So what then is our role as classroom teachers?
In this groundbreaking book, seasoned educator Kyle Wagner explains the new role of the teacher in the fourth industrial revolution. You will learn how to shift from being a deliverer of content, to a thoughtful designer and facilitator of student-centered learning experiences who gently guides from behind the scenes. Kyle, a veteran co-learning experience designer, former classroom teacher, and school leader, unpacks each of the twelve shifts required to build these student-centered environments. Chapters cover how to shift from a content-based to inquiry-based approach; develop relevant, interdisciplinary skills; cultivate meaningful student reflection; curate beautiful, real-world work; facilitate student-led discussion; and more.
Through stories from real student-centered classrooms around each shift, and anecdotes from the author's experience teaching and leading micro-academies, you will come away ready to unleash student creativity, build thoughtful inquirers, and develop self-directed learners within your own context.
