Chapter 10: Going Beyond the Classroom

I love how perceptive these students are. They are well aware of productive methods of learning that will interest them outside of the classroom, such as going to a local pond to clean and learn about the surrounding environment. With a teacher willing to engage students, it is incredibly possible to tie content into interesting areas, thus I am glad to see that this is happening within the schools.

I also loved that the chapter discussed bringing in other experts. A teacher that intends to provide students with the most learning and engagement will recognize that he or she is not always capable of conveying all subject matter. Instead, bringing an expert in will provide students with a new perspective and a deeper understanding of the material.
