Synopsis
Teens talk to adults about how they develop motivation and mastery Through the voices of students themselves, Fires in the Mind brings a game-changing question to teachers of adolescents: What does it take to get really good at something? Starting with what they already know and do well, teenagers from widely diverse backgrounds join a cutting-edge dialogue with adults about the development of mastery in and out of school. Their insights frame motivation, practice, and academic challenge in a new light that galvanizes more powerful learning for all. To put these students' ideas into practice, the book also includes practical tips for educators. Breaks new ground by bringing youth voices to a timely topic-motivation and mastery Includes worksheets, tips, and discussion guides that help put the book's ideas into practice Author has 18 previous books on adolescent learning and has written for the New York Times Magazine, Educational Leadership, and American Educator From the acclaimed author of Fires in the Bathroom , this is the next-step book that pushes the conversation to next level, as teenagers tackle the pressing challenges of motivation and mastery., What does it take to get really good at something? Praise for Fires in the Mind "This book offers a unique window into what all educators ought to consider as vastly important: igniting the passion for learning inherent in us all." -- Ronald J. Newell, author of Passion for Learning "What a refreshing book! Rather than asking the timeworn question How can we motivate these kids? Kathleen Cushman performs a lovely act of conceptual Jujutsu and instead asks What can the kids tell us about motivation? The answers are smart and thoughtful and brimming with good advice." -- Mike Rose, author of Why School? Reclaiming Education for All of Us "Every educator would like for students to develop a passion, but many are unsure of how to light that fire. Kathleen Cushman had the wisdom to ask students, and they tell us with clarity what motivates them and how school might be made more inspiring. Anyone who cares about schooling or children should read this book." -- Daniel T. Willingham, author of Why Dont Students Like School? "The best school reform creates schools that kids want to go to--where learning is meaningful and engaging. This wonderful book builds on the concept that education should be asset based--not based on telling kids what they dont know and cant do. Read Fires in the Mind and connect to the voices of students about how they learn most eagerly." -- Paul Houston, executive director, emeritus, American Association of School Administrators "This is a wonderful book for both practitioners and policymakers to use in making school more sensible, meaningful, and productive for students and their teachers." -- Elliot Washor, co-director, Big Picture Learning
