Many times, our students only achieve a superficial level of knowledge that fails to prepare them for the school and beyond the deep challenges. In teaching for deep learning, famous teachers and best -selling author J. McCighe and Harvey F. Silver proposes a solution: teaching students to make meaning for themselves.

Saying that the ability to “earn” the ability will be equipped in school, at work, and to flourish in life, the author exposes seven high-order thinking skills that facilitate the acquisition of information for more retention, recovery and transfer of students. These skills, which cut into material areas and grade levels and are deeply embedded in current academic standards, separate high recipients from their low -performance peers.

Drawing on the deep well of his research and experience, writer
– Find out what kind of content is the meaning of students.
– Provide practical equipment and strategy to help teachers target each of the seven thinking skills in the classroom.
– Explain how teachers can include thinking skills and equipment in lesson and unit design.
– Show how teachers can create students’ ability to use strategies independently.

If our goal is to prepare students to meet the harsh demands of school, college and career, then we should promote their ability to respond to such challenges. This broad, practical guide teachers will enable students to engage in learning the kind of learning that produces permanent understanding and valuable skills that they can use throughout their life.
