Classroom of the Future: Samsung School Transforms Learning at Eloy Intermediate School
America’s schools can meet the challenges of globalization and increased expectations — but not by doing what they’re doing today. So argues this book, which challenges the faulty assumptions that guide American public education. Focusing on process — standards, curriculum, and testing — rather than people has created lethargic, alienated students and cynical, disillusioned teachers. If schools can learn anything from the business world, it is that the best way to improve productivity is to tap into the talents and motivation of human assets. The book spells out new ways to select teachers and principals, nurture students and educators, and foster more meaningful community involvement. The potential is there — this engaging guide shows how to tap it, with the ultimate goal of a more fully engaged society, and a better future for America’s children.
If the time has come to replace your heating and cooling system, you should think carefully before making your new purchase. Your indoor comfort needs may have changed significantly over the past few years, and simply switching out your old system with one that is the same size could waste a great deal of energy and money.
