Winner of the Grawemeyer AwardIn their brave search for depth in American high schools, scholars Jal Mehta and Sarah Fine suffered many disappointmentsUndeterred, they spent 750 hours observing classes, interviewed more than 300 people, and produced the best book on high school dynamics I have ever read.Jay Mathews, Washington PostA hopeful, easytoread narrative on what the best teachers do and what deep, engaging learning looks like for students. Grab this text if youre looking for a celebration of whats possible in American schools.EdutopiaThis is the first and only book to depict not just the constraints on good teaching, but also how good teachers transcend them. A superb book in every way: timely, lively, and entertaining.Jonathan Zimmerman, University of PennsylvaniaWhat would it take to transform our high schools into places capable of supporting deep learning for students across a wide range of aptitudes and interests? To find out, Jal Mehta and Sarah Fine spent hundreds of hours observing and talking to teachers and students in and out of the classroom at thirty of the countrys most innovative schools. To their dismay, they discovered that deeper learning is more often the exception than the rule. And yet they found pockets of powerful learning at almost every school, often in extracurriculars but also in a few moldbreaking academic courses. So what must schools do to achieve the integrations that support deep learning: rigor with joy, precision with play, mastery with identity and creativity?In Search of Deeper Learning takes a deep dive into the state of our schools and lays out an inspiring new vision for American education.
