Synopsis "Teaching for Transfer: A Guide for Designing Learning With Real-World Application a Guide to Instructional Strategies That Build Transferable Skills in K-12 Students (in English)"

Empower students to become creative, well-rounded citizens who are prepared to meet and overcome real-world challenges. With Teaching for Transfer, you'll discover a road map for reconfiguring K-12 classroom instruction to ensure learners can expertly apply their knowledge and skills to new contexts. The resource includes ample practices and protocols you can begin using today to cultivate essential transfer-level skills in students. Use this resource to introduce students to varied perspectives and instances of perplexity: Study the three levels of complexity: (1) surface, (2) deep, and (3) transfer. Understand how foundational knowledge and skills can be leveraged to create transfer-level learning experiences and increase student engagement and problem-solving skills. Learn specific teaching strategies and protocols for incorporating perspective and perplexity in the classroom to mimic real-world challenges. Use end-of-chapter reflection questions individually and collaboratively, with other teachers, to build students' transferable skills.

Fue un auténtico monstruo de la literatura. Dotado de una creatividad sin límites, escribió miles de páginas, con una capacidad al nivel de un Balzac o un Dumas. Como ellos, optó por contar historias que llegaran a todo el mundo. Además de novelista, Michael McDowell fue un aclamado guionista. Fruto de su colaboración con Tim Burton fueron Bettlejuice y Pesadilla antes de Navidad, además de un episodio para la serie Alfred Hitchcock presenta. En 1983 publicó la que es sin duda su obra maestra: Blackwater.
