EDUCATIONAL THEORISTS

Benjamin Bloom

“Creativity follows mastery, so mastery of skills is the first priority for young talent.”

"Education must be increasingly concerned about the fullest development of all children and youth, and it will be the responsibility of the schools to seek learning conditions which will enable each individual to reach the highest level of learning possible."

Charles Bonwell

"The incorporation of active learning strategies into the daily routine of classroom instruction can, and should, be done."

​

"You can successfully overcome each of the major obstacles or barriers to the use of active learning strategies, and reduce the possibility of failure, by gradually incorporating teaching strategies that increase student activity level and instructor risk into your regular teaching style."

Carol Dweck

"In a growth mindset, challenges are exciting rather than threatening. So rather than thinking, oh, I'm going to reveal my weaknesses, you say, wow, here 's a chance to grow."

"No matter what your current ability is, effort is what ignites that ability and turns it into accomplishment."

Urie Bronfenbrenner

"No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations, and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings."

​

"There is no more critical indicator of the future of a society than the character, competence, and integrity of its youth."
