商品簡介
Costa (education, California State U., Sacramento) and Kallick, a private consultant and former teacher's center director, present a collection of 20 chapters by educators from the US, Australia, New Zealand, and Malaysia who describe how they have implemented the 16 Habits of Mind in their K-12 classrooms. They survey the habits, such as persistence, thinking flexibly, metacognition, and finding humor, and strategies for their development, while discussing suggestions for grade levels and content areas, including reading, math, social studies, the arts, foreign languages, character education, poetry, and physical education. Some of the chapters are updated versions of those in the authors' Activating and Engaging Habits of Mind. Annotation c2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
