Educating Ruby: What our children need to learn By Guy Claxton, Bill Lucas, Tanya Byron & Octavius Black
It is no secret that the education system in many countries needs reform. In “Educating Ruby: What Our Children Need to Learn”, authors Guy Claxton, Bill Lucas, Tanya Byron and Octavius Black offer a powerful, heartfelt and expert analysis of what is going wrong in the education of our children and how to put it right.
The book provides a comprehensive overview of education today’s problems, from an over-emphasis on standardised testing and rote learning to a lack of focus on creativity and critical thinking skills. The authors offer a compelling case for why we need to radically rethink how we educate our children and provide practical suggestions for achieving this. I suggest that everyone with interest in education should read this book. It is sure to provoke thought and discussion and could be the catalyst for much-needed change.
