Book description

This book focuses on the mind and its ability to seek answers to unknown or unanswered questions. The theory of educating provides the grounding for using V diagrams by students, educators, researchers, and parents. Teachers make lesson plans using V diagrams and concept maps. They become expert coaches in guiding student performances. Students learn to construct their own knowledge. They change from question-answerers to question-askers. Parents share meaning with their children and their children's teachers and administrators. Administrators monitor programs and are in touch with all participants in schools and universities. Researchers and evaluators can share records of events and facts. With this theory working in the classrooms and laboratories of many practical places of educating plus extending into the world of technology literacy, The Art of Educating with V Diagrams explains how educating works.

Reviews

“The authors of this timely text pose a question: “Why read this book?” They then proceed to define and explain the use and value of Venn Diagrams as utilized in an eight-year Exploring Minds Project at Tennessee State University. Educators interested in developing the critical thinking skills of students in courses from math to social studies will find these results useful.”
