It tells the story of enterprising college, graduate school, and high school teachers who are using evidence-based approaches to spark deeper levels of learning, critical thinking, and creativity. Bain and his collaborator, Marsha Marshall Bain, visit schools across the United States, China, and Singapore to uncover super courses in the humanities and sciences. These courses use powerful researched-based elements to build a \"natural critical learning environment\" that fosters intrinsic motivation, self-directed learning, and self-reflective reasoning. The book includes sample syllabi and shows teachers how they can build their own super courses. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 pages\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 09 March 2021\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ewith the skills they need to succeed in the 21st century, and transform the way we think about teaching and learning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDecades of research have yielded profound insights into how student learning and motivation can be unleashed, and it's not through technology or even the best of lectures. In Super Courses, education expert and bestselling author Ken Bain tells the fascinating story of enterprising college, graduate school, and high school teachers who are using evidence-based approaches to spark deeper levels of learning, critical thinking, and creativity, whether teaching online, in class, or in the field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVisiting schools across the United States, as well as in China and Singapore, Bain, working with his longtime collaborator, Marsha Marshall Bain, uncovers super courses throughout the humanities and sciences. At the University of Virginia, undergrads contemplate the big questions that drove Tolstoy by working with juveniles at a maximum-security correctional facility. Harvard physics students learn about the universe not through lectures but from their peers in a class where even reading is a social event. And students at a Dallas high school use dance to develop growth mindsets—and many of them go on to top colleges, including Juilliard. Bain defines these as super courses because they all use powerful, researched-based elements to build a \"natural critical learning environment\" that fosters intrinsic motivation, self-directed learning, and self-reflective reasoning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComplete with sample syllabi, the book shows teachers how they can build their own super courses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe story of a hugely important breakthrough in education, Super Courses reveals how these classes can help students reach their full potential, equip them with the skills they need to succeed in the 21st century, and transform the way we think about teaching and learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 616g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 243 x 32 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780691185460                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ken Bain","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44101549031674,"sku":"9780691185460","price":16.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/e14dbbfeae5d755c82f83ae1b793b658.jpg?v=1621170745","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/super-courses-the-future-of-teaching-and-learning","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
