{"product_id":"9780692910924","title":"The Epic Classroom: How to Boost Engagement, Make Learning Memorable, and Transform Lives","description":"This book begins with a bold idea. Learning should be epic. \u003cp\u003eDefinition of Epic: \u003cbr\u003e1. A story or narrative centered around a hero\u003cbr\u003e2. Spectacular; impressive; memorable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf learning is not memorable, should it even be considered learning?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor too long, traditional education has used outdated practices to deliver complex and well-intended content to students with very little hope of that subject matter being retained. It often looks like this: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLectures are given ---\u0026gt;Students write the information down ---\u0026gt; Students take a test on that information ---\u0026gt; Information is discarded from the brain ---\u0026gt; Repeat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt doesn't have to be this way anymore. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the The Epic Classroom, Trevor Muir uses the power of storytelling and brain science to give educators practical and proven practices to achieve real student engagement, and in return, learning that is permanent and memorable. Any teacher, in any subject area, and in any grade level can use the story-centered framework of The Epic Classroom to transform their classrooms into settings where students are engaged, challenged, and transformed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStudents can be heroes of their own learning; dynamic, capable, and daring characters working their way through a plot to solve real conflicts that can change their world. And classrooms are a setting for this adventure to take place; teachers being the guides to lead their students through this journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book you will discover\u003cbr\u003e- How to increase student engagement\u003cbr\u003e- How to plan and execute an effective approach to project-based learning \u003cbr\u003e- Specific strategies for leading engaged students\u003cbr\u003e- Outlines and tools to plan and manage projects\u003cbr\u003e- Methods to increase academic performance in students\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blend Education","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47027730710768,"sku":"9780692910924","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780692910924_p0.jpg?v=1763615846","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780692910924","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
