商品簡介
In "applied learning" projects, children select an area of interest and work collaboratively to research the topic. Diffily (early childhood education, Southern Methodist U.) and Sassman (an elementary school teacher at Alice Carlson Applied Learning Center, Texas) report on the efforts of the Carlson Center to bring the method to children as young as five years old. After discussing their own experiences with the method they outline procedures for teachers to bring the process to their own classroom, giving advice on setting up the project, classroom methods, and project assessment.
