Описание: In their hit books Notice and Note and Reading Nonfiction, Kylene Beers and Bob Probst showed teachers how to help students become close readers. Now, in Disrupting Thinking they take teachers a step further and discuss an on-going problem: lack of engagement with reading. They explain that all too often, no matter the strategy shared with students, too many students remain disengaged and reluctant readers. The problem, they suggest, is that we have misrepresented to students why we read and how we ought to approach any text - fiction or nonfiction. With their hallmark humor and their appreciated practicality, Beers and Probst present a vision of what reading and what education across all the grades could be. Hands-on-strategies make it applicable right away for the classroom teacher, and turn-and-talk discussion points make it a guidebook for school-wide conversations. In particular, they share new strategies and ideas for helping classroom teachers: --Create engagement and relevance --Encourage responsive and responsible reading --Deepen comprehension --Develop lifelong reading habits "We think it's time we finally do become a nation of readers, and we know it's time students learn to tell fake news from real news. It's time we help students understand why how they read is so important," explain Beers and Probst. "Disrupting Thinking is, at its heart, an exploration of how we help students become the reader who does so much more than decode, recall, or choose the correct answer from a multiple-choice list. This book shows us how to help students become the critical thinkers our nation needs them to be."

Do you want to understand the roles of thinking in systems and how they affect, hinder, or aid in fulfilling your life? Do you want to increase your thinking skills and build effective mental models?
Just as every node on a network contributes to the final result, every action of a member of a particular organizational system contributes to the outcome. Without a broad view of interconnectedness, our problem-solving skills are limited and short-sighted, and our abilities to make long-term, beneficial decisions are hampered. If we don't acknowledge our interdependence's complexity, then we are doomed to replicate a system that will ultimately fail.
The human mind expects events and describes fundamentals by building small-scale models of the real world. There is a mental model for everything that happens around you. Once you start using them in your life, your day-to-day life will start becoming so much easier.
In this book, you will learn:
- The key concepts of systems thinking
- A step-by-step method to solve any problem
- Tips to improve your decision-making process
- The role of Chaos Theory in systems thinking
- What is wrong with your current way of thinking, and how you can improve it
- Strategies for developing habits, mental toughness, and resilience to combat mental clutter
- 40 mental models that you can use in your daily life
- How to expand your set of mental models, create new ones and use them effectively
... And much more
Awareness of our interconnectedness is key to solving the biggest and most complex problems we face in contemporary society.
You will be astonished as to how you start seeing the world in a different light the moment you expose yourself to a new mental model. There is no end to the number of mental models that exist on this earth, and you will learn about so many of them in this book. Ready to get started?
