How to Promote Engagement and Participation in K–12 Classrooms

Would you like to establish an animated classroom atmosphere where students are motivated to gain skills, absorb knowledge, express opinions, and examine alternatives? Would you like your students to reflect on the quality of their thinking and learning? With her usual eloquence, Elisheva Zeffren articulates students’ need to think critically, formulate conclusions, and uncover what is relevant and important to modern life. The lucid writing style, easy-to-read charts, creative exercises, practical and concrete goals, make this book simple to revisit. Educators can take the innovative ideas back to their classrooms and implement them with little or no preparation.
