Great Learners by Design: Principles and Practices to Supercharge Learners, 2025

The book advocates moving away from rote learning and teacher-centric classrooms.  Instead, it promotes cultivating self-sufficient, strategic, and visible learners through effective learning strategies.  This approach helps foster a learning environment where mistakes are seen not as embarrassments but as opportunities for growth.  Twelve learning strategies are emphasized that will transform your class and school into an organization dedicated to excellence.
