Recenzje

"The Fort Worth Independent School District Professional Learning and Innovation team used the strategies from Battling Boredom as the material for a district professional learning day. Over 1200 teachers engaged with a variety of strategies from the book. Many teachers shared that it was the best professional learning they had experienced! They loved the engagement and focus on student-centered strategies to promote and support learning in the classroom. Battling Boredom is a wonderful resource for new teachers who want to start their careers strong and for experience teachers who want to incorporate new strategies that promote student engagement. The book is easy to read, understand and apply in lesson design and delivery. A must-have tool in your teacher toolkit!" — Dr. Lezley C. Lewis, Executive Director, FWISD Professional Learning & Innovation
