What is Teaching Minds : How Cognitive Science Can Save Our Schools about?
“Professor Roger Schank has long been one of the world's most innovative thinkers about education. This book is the culmination of his lifetime of thinking about teaching and learning. Although I've known Roger for over 20 years, I've learned a lot from this book and I know that you will too.” —Ray Bareiss, Professor and Director of Educational Programs, Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley“Finally, some fresh thinking about teaching and learning. You will come away understanding what's wrong with how we teach today and what an effective pedagogy looks like. If you care about education, you will love love love this book!” —Elliot Soloway, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, University of Michigan“Roger's insights tend to be a decade or two ahead of the insights of others. You can find his insights in current machine translation technologies, recommender systems, game-based learning environments, and even intelligence-gathering systems. The insights in this book are likely to be equally prescient and enduring.” —Janet L. Kolodner, Regents'Professor, Georgia Institute of Technology“Roger Schank shows that we can learn more by concrete challenge and disagreement than through disinterested lectures
