Hacking Student Learning Habits - (Hack Learning) by Elizabeth Jorgensen (Paperback)

About the Book

Award-winning writer and teacher Elizabeth Jorgensen shows how to create process-based assessments that help students develop habits of higher-order thinking.

Book Synopsis

Look what happens when assessment becomes a simple student-driven process

Traditional outcome-based grades make school a place of right or wrong answers, a rigid system that stalls enjoyment and learning. In contrast, innovative teachers of all subjects and grade levels use process-based assessment to build positive classroom cultures and foster resilient learners who focus on the learning, not the grades.

Award-winning writer and teacher Elizabeth Jorgensen shows how to create process-based assessments that help students develop habits of higher-order thinking. It is about embracing, trying, failing, and trying again, and turning "What did you get on the test?" into "How did you get that on the test?"

In Hacking Student Learning Habits, you'll learn how to:

• build upward trends in non-linear learning systems
• introduce small, measurable, progress-driven goals
• deemphasize grades as the outcome
• implement process based learning
• help students embrace process driven goals
• create fun in the learning
• inspire students to develop high yield habits for life
