”Ruby is battling her own challenges in the school classroom. She wants to
learn, but the system conspires against her; she feels that what she is being
taught has little relevance to the skills she will need when she enters the
workplace. A once keen pupil, she becomes bored and possibly disruptive. Her
parents face a daily challenge to motivate her even to go to school – though in
their heart of hearts they sympathise with her complaints.”(http://www.eventbrite.com)
”Educating
Ruby: What Our Children Really Need To Learn is a powerful call to action by
acclaimed thought-leaders Guy Claxton and Bill Lucas. It is for everyone who
cares about education in an uncertain world and explains how teachers, parents
and grandparents can cultivate confidence, curiosity, collaboration,
communication, creativity, commitment and craftsmanship in children, at the
same time as helping them to do well in public examinations. Educating Ruby
shows, unequivocally, that schools can get the right results in the right way,
so that the Rubys of tomorrow will emerge from their time at school able to
talk with honest pleasure and reflective optimism about their schooling.
Featuring the views of schoolchildren, parents, educators and employers and
drawing on Guy Claxton and Bill Lucas’ years of experience in education,
including their work with Building Learning Power and the Expansive Education
Network, this powerful new book is sure to provoke thinking and debate. Just as
Willy Russell’s Educating Rita helped us rethink university, the authors of
Educating Ruby invite fresh scrutiny of our schools.”( Amazon)
