Description

Understanding Multiage Education by Sandra J. Stone and Kathleen Glascott Burriss is a comprehensive exploration of the philosophy and foundations of multiage education. This book presents a compelling case for changing our system of education from a graded, curriculum-centered approach to a child-centered approach. Veteran educators Stone and Burriss examine the "why" of multiage education, exploring how multiage classrooms' structure, environment, strategies, and assessments unfold and complement the multiage philosophy and pedagogy. The book delves into the differences between standard and mixed-age approaches, featuring Inside Insights - short vignettes, case studies, examples of multiage in practice, and discussion questions to engage readers with core concepts. Designed for graduate-level students and experienced practitioners, this guide provides essential insights into understanding the rationale, implementation, and benefits of multiage education.
