Real-World Learning Framework for Secondary Schools provides teachers with not only a framework for designing real-world learning, but also critical questions, alignment to standards, lesson-plan templates, rubrics, and a plethora of technology resources that beg to be used in every classroom. The project-based examples in Part II offer answers to teachers who need to see the reality of what the framework looks like in English, math, social studies, and science. These authors took the adage, 'Show, don't tell' and put it to work right before our eyes.

“Teachers who like to see real-world examples of Real-World Learning Framework will love this book. After the authors roll out the framework for planning 21st century learning, they go on to provide project-based examples in English, math, social studies and science, using their recommended template. Teachers will love the depth of the concept and the ease of lesson-plan development demonstrated in this text.”

Dr. Kevin Sue Bailey, coordinator of secondary education, Indiana University Southeast
