Book Overview
" Proceed With Passion: Engaging Students in Meaningful Education is filled with bold approaches to giving students the ingredients they most lack in their schooling--a sense of purpose, a reason for wanting to learn and, ultimately, a passion to help others." --Arianna Huffington "Schools and environmental organizations need young people like Anna Cummins with the intelligence and commitment to get things done. Her two chapters in this book are a welcome addition to the eco canon." --Jeremy Jackson "The title of this book captures Emily Cummins's life and work--passion and engagement in meaningful service." --Claudia Villegas-Avalos "Our educational system badly needs some bold thinking. Paul Cummins's vision of what American education could be is imaginative and inspiring." --Howard Zinn

A Book on Education That Gets It All Right
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I train teachers and also observe in high schools regularly. Paul Cummins and his daughters get it all right in this easily accessible book. Teachers will find the suggestions close to perfect for reaching kids, especially the "new adolescent." Parents with school age children will find the insights into our classrooms helpful. And if our policy makers would use books like this one to help shape educational policy, instead of following their misguided paths, fewer children would truly be left behind.
