Improving thinking in the classroom does not have to be difficult. This book, Improving Thinking in the Classroom, Second Edition, provides teachers with useful and practical strategies that will enable them to provide all their children with the most engaging, exciting and challenging learning environment.

Teachers can achieve this most noble goal by:

building depth and rigour using Bloom's taxonomy engaging students with multiple intelligences transferring the knowledge to the real world.

Engagement, depth and rigour are essential characteristics of a curriculum that will motivate and interest students. This means challenging, meaningful and relevant activities that make the classroom an active centre of learning.
