A Book that Changes Traditional Lesson-Planning June 3, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is one of the most engaging and useful books I've read on curriculum. I've been trying to attach concepts to my lesson plans but I've always been uncertain on how effective these plans are. The most useful part of this book was its main theme. That is, how to teach beyond facts. The book is constantly clarifying concepts developed by the author; and uses many models to visualize a concept-based curriculum. It is a must for every teacher and educator working at any level in education.

using facts, not memorizing them May 26, 2000
21 out of 52 found this review helpful

As a teacher and ex-curriculum expert, I found the title of the book very interesting. In a world where is possible to access and learn almost every piece of information and fact, it is the duty of the teacher and curricularist to focus on thinking on facts, not memorizing them.
