Summary

Why are so many children still not learning in spite of more money being spent on education and stricter accountability standards? Most educational programs overlook what the author through her extensive and varied experience has found to be eight essential principles of learning. Beatitudes of Learning is a consciousness raising book for parents, teachers, and adults to aid in creating successful learning environments for all ages. Full of real life examples and anecdotes, including biographies of famous people who overcame learning challenges when growing up, this book provides a powerful resource to blend traditional with more innovative educational approaches to learning.
