Learning in the Zone: The 7 Habits of Meta-Learners

Every single one of us has the potential to experience optimal learning, the kind where our passions and abilities converge to elevate our performance well beyond our expectations. This is what Dr. Sonny Magana calls "learning in the zone," and in this book the renowned learning futurist, Oxford Research Scholar, and award-winning educator provides easy-to-understand strategies that can help anyone get there.

In clear, engaging prose, Dr. Magana lays out the seven specific habits learners-whether they're students, parents, teachers, administrators, or educational leaders-need to meet the challenges they'll face on their education journeys. He shares inspiring insights from his own experience along with digital tools and an accessible grounding in cognitive science to make a strong case for meta-learning as the path forward for producing successful twenty-first-century learners and unlocking their limitless learning potential.
