I am watching "Teach" hosted by Queen Latifah. Very interesting documentary about teaching. Some of our kids are struggling academically. So my question is traditional teaching the best strategy or more progressive methods better for our kids? In the more traditional approach of transmitting knowledge it is usually done by “telling” or lecturing. What is important is that all children achieve the same academic mastery, at about the same time, using the same methods. In the progressive approach to learning, the individual child’s interests, abilities and learning style are viewed as important factors in designing and assessing learning. Children are encouraged to follow their interests, pursue problems in a way that makes sense to them and defend their conclusions by explaining their thinking. #promotemindfulnessclassrooms
