This course is organized around several questions - or sets of questions - about teaching, learning, and schooling. Together, these sets of questions will lead us through an analysis of what's going on in schools and classrooms today and how teachers should behave to maximize student learning. As you may guess, these are not simple questions or issues and... what makes it more difficult... is that there is enormous disagreement about the answers to these questions! Our course has six units and the units and their corresponding question sets include: Unit 1: What does good teaching look like? Unit 2: What do 21st century schools and classrooms look like? Unit 3: How have we tried to reform education? Unit 4: Is our system of education really in that much trouble? Unit 5: How can kids possibly be bored in school? Unit 6: How can we teach in ways that are deeply engaging?
