Unfortunately, our current education system does very little to produce these results. Why? Because we donot know how to preserve and grow students' intrinsic motivation. That is the focus of How to Create a Perfect School. Lee Jenkins wrote this invaluable guide to share the proven processes he has developed which encouragestudents to work hard and enjoy learning. These processes include: organizing student input to maintain their kindergarten level of intrinsic motivation replacing school practices that destroy motivation with ones that accelerate motivation honoring every student for outperforming their own best work adding up every student's contribution for team totals creating students who can clearly explain the learning process to any interested adult. Do these processes really work? Yes! This method has been tested with more than 7500 students, and the results are in. Teachers using this method see an increase in classroom learning by six times the nationalaverage. Do you want this to be your school? Then look no further. How to Create a Perfect School is the book you need to lead your students into long-lasting, student-driven academic success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How often have you attempted to create a perfect school? Fess up. When did your Board last debate this very topic and either vote for its immediate and unwavering application to your entire district or asked you why it hadn't already been achieved? Are your parents clamoring for perfect teachers, perfect classrooms, and a perfect curriculum? Are your teachers making the very same demands-with the additions of perfect parents and perfect students? Yet that's what we all want, isn't it? Isn't that your wish every time you make a decision? So three veteran and much-honored educational leaders from Illinois decided that, rather than simply talk, they would design just such a school. Then you can agree, disagree, build from, or build against such a framework. But the two Jims and Max didn't simply create a set of lists of every facet they thought critical, they gave that skeleton bones and process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking parenting guidebook addressing the trait of “high sensitivity” in children, from the psychologist and bestselling author of The Highly Sensitive Person whose books have sold more than 1 million copies With the publication of The Highly Sensitive Person, pioneering psychotherapist Dr. Elaine Aron became the first person to identify the inborn trait of “high sensitivity” and to show how it affects the lives of those who possess it. In The Highly Sensitive Child, Dr. Aron shifts her focus to the 15 to 20 percent of children who are born highly sensitive—deeply reflective, sensitive to the subtle, and easily overwhelmed. These qualities can make for smart, conscientious, creative children, but also may result in shyness, fussiness, or acting out. As Dr. Aron shows in The Highly Sensitive Child, if your child seems overly inhibited, particular, or you worry that they may have a neurodevelopmental disorder, such as ADHD or autism, they may simply be highly sensitive. And raised with proper understanding and care, highly sensitive children can grow up to be happy, healthy, well-adjusted adults. Rooted in Dr. Aron’s years of experience working with highly sensitive children and their families, as well as in her original research on child temperament, The Highly Sensitive Child explores the challenges of raising an HSC; the four keys to successfully parenting an HSC; how to help HSCs thrive in a not-so-sensitive world; and how to make school and friendships enjoyable. With chapters addressing the needs of specific age groups, from newborns to teens, The Highly Sensitive Child is the ultimate resource for parents, teachers, and the sensitive children in their lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a highly revealing and troubling view of today's high school students and the ways they pursue high grades and success. Denise Pope, veteran teacher and curriculum expert, follows five motivated and successful students through a school year, closely shadowing them and engaging them in lengthy reflections on their school experiences. What emerges is a double-sided picture of school success. On the one hand, these students work hard in school, participate in extracurricular activities, serve their communities, earn awards and honours, and appear to uphold school values. But on the other hand, they feel that in order to get ahead they must compromise their values and manipulate the system by scheming, lying, and cheating. In short, they do school, that is, they are not really engaged with learning nor can they commit to such values as integrity and community. The words and actions of these five students - two boys and three girls from diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds - underscore the frustrations of being caught in a grade trap that pins future success to high grades and test scores. Their stories raise critical questions that are too important for parents, educators, and community leaders to ignore. Are schools cultivating an environment that promotes intellectual curiosity, cooperation, and integrity? Or are they fostering anxiety, deception, and hostility? Do today's schools inadvertently impede the very values they claim to embrace? Is the success that current assessment practices measure the kind of success we want for our children?

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Experience the book that started the Quiet Movement and revolutionized how the world sees introverts—and how introverts see themselves—by offering validation, inclusion, and inspiration “Superbly researched, deeply insightful, and a fascinating read, Quiet is an indispensable resource for anyone who wants to understand the gifts of the introverted half of the population.”—Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY People • O: The Oprah Magazine • Christian Science Monitor • Inc. • Library Journal • Kirkus Reviews At least one-third of the people we know are introverts. They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking; who innovate and create but dislike self-promotion; who favor working on their own over working in teams. It is to introverts—Rosa Parks, Chopin, Dr. Seuss, Steve Wozniak—that we owe many of the great contributions to society. In Quiet, Susan Cain argues that we dramatically undervalue introverts and shows how much we lose in doing so. She charts the rise of the Extrovert Ideal throughout the twentieth century and explores how deeply it has come to permeate our culture. She also introduces us to successful introverts—from a witty, high-octane public speaker who recharges in solitude after his talks, to a record-breaking salesman who quietly taps into the power of questions. Passionately argued, impeccably researched, and filled with indelible stories of real people, Quiet has the power to permanently change how we see introverts and, equally important, how they see themselves.

The changes were not so much in the students as they were in the teachers and parents. He reveals what he witnessed as well as how teachers can eradicate many bad behaviors that have become commonplace in education. He also examines the growing problem of teachers who have been seduced by the government to raise test scoreseven if it means cheating. Whether youre a new teacher fresh out of college, a veteran teacher, a school administrator, or someone starting a second career as an educator, youll be poised to help students succeed with The Secrets of a Good Teacher.
