Developments in Content Domains, Large-Scale Reform, and Intellectual Capacity

Produktbeschreibung

This book shows, in detail and with concrete examples, how educational theory and research can be translated into practice. Well-known researchers who have worked to establish productive, sustainable connections between the knowledge produced by the research community and the practices employed in school settings provide descriptions of successful strategies that have been used to bridge the gap among theory, research, and practice. The volume addresses three main themes: analysis of how educational theory and research may be used to improve student learning and achievement in mathematics, science, and reading; examination of how educational theory and research has been used to conceptualize, implement, and evaluate the effects of challenges of large-scale reform; and exploration of how different models of intelligence and creativity have informed educational practice.
