Focusing on the need for reform in education, the authors propose transforming schools into "educating societies" to address dissatisfaction with current systems. Their theory, rooted in culture-sensitive developmental psychology, synthesizes insights from Vygotskian principles, cognitive science, anthropology, and sociolinguistics. Drawing from extensive research and practical experience, including the Kamehameha Elementary Education Program, they present a comprehensive approach to enhance educational practices from early childhood through higher education.

Not only was John Wooden a great basketball coach, he was a master teacher. In fact, he was a great coach because he was a master teacher. What Wooden has learned from others in the classroom and perfected on the practice court are fundamental principles of effective teaching. This book conveys these principles.
