My Stack of Stuff

Why Don't Students Like School: A Cognitive Scientist Answers Questions About How the Mind Works and What It Means for the Classroom
Dr. Willingham is reviews much of the current science behind how we learn. In doing so he breaks down several myths about learning. I find it a fascinating read and it makes sense based on the experience we have working with people with leaning problems. I look forward to sharing some of what is in his book. I would highly recommend this book for any teacher. He writes in a very casual style that is easy to read.
