Teaching for Tomorrow

Teaching Content and Problem-Solving Skills

Distinguished author and educator Ted McCain makes the case for real-world learning in the classroom in "Teaching For Tomorrow", another edition in the comprehensive 21st Century Fluency Series. In this book, Ted shows you how teachers can move from the temptation to "tell", and put the responsibility of problem-solving directly into the hands of the student, where it belongs.

In this vast new electronic landscape we face a totally different kind of student than we were when we were in the classrooms. Indeed, today even the definition of the classroom itself has been revolutionized and completely redefined by the digital age."Teaching for Tomorrow" is a handbook to guide you in your quest to uncover the new and different ways our digital generation is redefining the experience of learning. Within is a detailed explanation of what it truly means to "teach for tomorrow". Using innovative models for the instructional process and in-depth fictional scenarios geared toward promoting an active participation in project-based learning, you'll get a sense for an alternative approach to the traditional full-frontal lecture.

"Teaching For Tomorrow" aims at helping educators shift the responsibility for learning from the teacher to the student, and seeks to bridge the gap between two very different generations to breathe new life into learning.

This book and DVD are both part of the 21st Century Fluency Series, providing a wealth of resources to educators aimed at making learning relevant in our technological age.
