Description: This is the welcome greeting on the main book this exact words "WELCOME TO SPOTLIGHT'S STANDARDS-BASED ACTIVE LEARNING! When I examine my self and my method of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing knowledge. - Albert Einstein Educators Agree: Active Learning Works Educators, researchers and students all agree: the most powerful type of learning takes place when multiple senses (not only "seeing and hearing," but also "saying and doing") are involved. A growing body of research is finding that the development of higher order thinking skills, such as critical and creative thinking, is measurably enhanced when lessons are delivered through the arts. What Einstein reported decades ago - that playing the violin stimulated his ability to construct complex mathematic theories - is being validated by scientific researchers today.

Measuring student progress against these standards is becoming a priority for school districts around the nation.
