Teach to Develop Talent

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"This book presents a comprehensive, practical, evidence-based approach to transform teaching and learning to focus on the long-term aim of educating our future creative problem-solvers who will identify, develop, and apply their diverse gifts and talents in meaningful ways. Current research that shows even our best schools may not be preparing students for the challenges of the current global economy. The Global Education Reform Movement, with its emphases on standardization, accountability, and testing, has left many of our students disengaged, unmotivated, and underachieving. The most serious crises occur among poor and minority students with potential for high achievement but little opportunity to develop it. Schools need a comprehensive approach for motivating, engaging, and educating innovators across diverse student populations. This book presents such an approach through a new model called Talent-Targeted Teaching and Learning, a brain-based model for talent development which fosters students' content expertise, metacognition, and creative problem-solving. This model demonstrates how students can achieve the required curriculum content standards while they work toward long-range aims for talent development. Educators learn hands-on techniques to target, teach, and assess the cognitive and psychosocial aptitudes of students, such as creativity, insight, persistence, and logical reasoning. Talent-Targeted Teaching and Learning applies the psychology of motivation, engagement, and achievement to practical methods that educators can use to develop a curriculum focused on long-term aims for talent development"--

Why It Matters
Author: John A. White
Publisher: Greenleaf Book Group
ISBN: 1626349592
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 409
Book Description
Teachers are Leaders and Leaders are Teachers In Why It Matters, John A. White draws on a wealth of expertise acquired across his six-decade career as a corporate leader, chancellor, dean, educator, engineer, and consultant to create a thorough and thought-provoking treatise on leadership philosophy. Based in part on Leadership Practices and Principles, the award-winning course he designed and taught at the University of Arkansas, Why It Matters brilliantly weaves Dr. White’s inspiring personal story and observations on leadership with a treasure trove of leadership philosophy from some of the nation’s most respected corporate, military, and political leaders. After stepping down as chancellor of the University of Arkansas, Dr. White was encouraged by faculty colleagues to offer a course on leadership. Though he’d been an engineering educator for forty-five years by then and had never taught a course that wasn’t based on equations, he was intrigued by the idea of sharing his leadership journey with students. For the following nine years, Dr. White taught Leadership Practices and Principles to seniors and graduate students from every discipline, introducing them to fifteen guest leaders over the course of each semester and holding in-depth, frank, and often emotional conversations about the challenges, joys, heartbreaks, and diversity of approaches to successful leadership. Dr. White recounts dozens of these conversations in Why It Matters while reflecting on his own leadership journey in business, government, nonprofit organizations, and universities. Drawing on numerous challenging leadership experiences while serving on six boards of directors for publicly traded companies and leading the University of Arkansas, Georgia Tech’s engineering college, National Science Foundation’s engineering directorate, and numerous professional associations, he provides practical guidance on navigating your leadership journey. Why It Matters is required reading for current and aspiring leaders alike, as well as anyone with an interest in a plainspoken and truly comprehensive compendium of leadership thought and philosophy.
