Craft a personal blueprint for teaching that ensures student learning stands as the foundation of your classroom. Drawing on research from the field, reflections from teachers, and the authors’ professional experience, Teachers as Architects of Learning guides educators in building their wisdom around the art of teaching. Find new and better ways to plan, implement, discuss, question, model, and more.

- Gain a deeper understanding of the learning process through an extensive overview of key learning theories and their practical applications.
- Discover how a focus on learning rather than teaching benefits students.
- Explore twelve learning constructs, and learn ways of incorporating them into a learning-centered classroom.
- Reflect on teaching strategies, and develop more mindful approaches to class modeling, both in individual and collaborative group contexts.
- Examine the importance of students’ investment in their own learning process, and create an environment in which students find more motivation, agency, and mindfulness in their learning.
