Summary Note The author believes that offering students choices about their learning is one of the most powerful ways teachers can boost student learning, motivation, and achievement. In this book he offers numerous examples of choice in action, ideas to try with different students, and a step-by-step process to help you plan and incorporate choice into the classroom. He covers: What effective student choice looks like in the classroom; Why itâs important to offer students choices; How to create learning environments, set the right tone for learning, and teach specific skills that enable choice to work well. He argues that when students have more choices about their learning, they can find ways of learning that match their personal needs and be more engaged in their work, building skills and work habits that will serve them well in school and beyond. This guide is designed to help teachers help students who are bored, frustrated, or underperforming come alive to learning through the fundamental power of choice. [Publisher website, ed]
