Details | Education needs to be transformed into a system capable of developing human resources by fostering
thinking, judgment, and creative expression in all young learners. For this to happen, teaching practices and curricular patterns cannot be seen as sacrosanct, but instead, they must continually evolve with the times so that the students can fully participate in our rapidly changing global society and not remain, mere spectators. A concrete curricular example of that reform trend is the introduction of Kieran Egan’s “Learning in Depth” (LiD) program in selected schools. In the EAL classroom, LiD can cultivate sustained conceptual inquiry that allows collaborative knowledge building, This paper examines a 5 year study of adapting this progrma to the classroom. |
