Stirring the Head, Heart, and Soul: Redefining Curriculum, Instruction, and Concept-Based Learning

Fabulous book that spells out how to teach conceptually. This book is very engaging and an easy read. It has changed how I think about teaching and learning - as well as how I teach daily!

Great companion book to Erickson's Concept-Based Curriculum.

The book has meaningful information, however the layout is awful. Very hard to find definitions or information that you need.

Had to buy the latest edition of the book, and it did not disappoint! Up-to-date with information about latest research and applications across the educational spectrum.

Lynn Erickson's book does not disappoint. In this third edition book, Erickson sets the stage for `why' educators should be interested in conceptual teaching. Importantly, Erickson, an educator herself, writes with authentic respect for teachers who seek to create thoughtful classrooms in schools across the country today (against the backdrop of the recent emphasis on test prep). This book is a good choice for both school administrators/policy makers and teachers. Erickson successfully weaves 1-strategies for assisting teachers to structure their instruction and 2-the reasons behind what she is advocating in terms of education for the 21st Century. For educators who seek greater understanding about creating meaningful instruction, this book containing Erickson's most recent insights is a good choice!Donna Wilson, Ph.D.

This textbook has a lot of good info on Ceoncept Based Learning and establishing a curriculum the reaches the students in an authentic way.

This doesn't say it is the facilitators guide, but it is. So it's the wrong book, and now I'm going to fail. Awesome. Thanks.
