ENGAGING ADOLESCENT LEARNERS - BRANDY YEE ANNE ...

This book draws on detailed case studies from three very different countries and school systems
to explore the early adolescent learner and the middle years of learning  both of which are
often overlooked in the literature. An abundance of research shows the importance of the middle
years in putting early adolescent learners on the path to success in further education  careers
and general wellbeing. By focusing on bringing current research to life through the sharing of
practical examples and lived experiences of practitioners  this book explores how issues such
as curriculum reform  inclusive philosophies  instructional design  and assessment practices
are supporting the conditions in which effective middle years learning can unfold. A
comparative approach  using data from Canada  Germany and Finland  is utilized to critically
examine the effects of the pedagogical methods employed by teachers  and the learning
environments in which formal education takes place. The book makes a compelling case for the
importance of fostering student voice and choice  and developing new ways of engaging the
school community as a whole  and makes a valuable contribution to the discourse concerning
early adolescent learners and the middle years of schooling.
