But its purpose is equity, ‘the extent to which students are effectively prepared for social and economic opportunities beyond school.’ It’s a brilliant framing of the task of the teacher, and one that Stembridge reminds us requires us to see each child as ‘irreducibly’ individual. This meditation on how we can create the bridge between artistry and equity by careful attention to our learners as individuals is worth every teacher’s time.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e—Doug Lemov,\u003c\/b\u003e Bestselling Author of \u003ci\u003eTeach Like a Champion 3.0\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBrilliant Teaching\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates the creation of student-centered opportunities that match the social, political, and economic context of your learning environment by employing an informed, multi-layered, and artistic perspective.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on a variety of disciplines—and going beyond the post-modern and critical-theory-based discourses that dominate most contemporary academic conversations—author Dr. Adeyemi Stembridge combines insights from art theory, cultural psychology, cognitive science, and learning theory to offer an empowering and engaging approach you can use to help your students reach their own goals and move society onward and upward. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearning to view the K-12 classroom with a more expansive mindset requires fresh ideas and artful thinking. \u003ci\u003eBrilliant Teaching\u003c\/i\u003e provides educators with those things and more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jossey-Bass","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988858519781,"sku":"NP9781119901129","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781119901129.jpg?v=1761781804","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/brilliant-teaching-isbn-9781119901129","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
