Dilemma-Based Learning in the Humanities

DILEMMA-BASED LEARNING IN THE HUMANITIES
By Phil Wood, Barry Hymer and Deb Michel
Price: £55.00


This unique book will enable you to delve straight in to working with dilemmas and allow you to develop a practice, which involves reflection and action in equal measure. It does this by allowing you to expose your students to enquiries into a number of difficult choices based upon real life.

The dilemma-based learning approach will also help your students to improve their group skills, as enquiries are based upon a joint quest, in the belief that several thinkers working together are more effective than just one.
The book will enable you to implement tools and techniques that will:

• Allow your students to practice and develop skills they can use throughout their lives to make considered decisions, including skills of reflection, enquiry, logical and analytical thinking and considering multiple solutions
  

• Improve students' ability to work with others as part of an effective group
  

• Encourage whole-class and group discussion that will challenge and stretch your students' thinking
  

• Give students skills that they can use in other subjects to raise performance, such as creative thinking and reasoning
