To engage a wide range of learners, from reluctant to eager, can be a daunting task, especially in subjects that some students may find difficult and challenging. Dennis Adams and Mary Hamm take a research-based approach at engaging students of all learning types to the areas of science, technology, engineering, and math. Focusing on teamwork in the classroom, Adams and Hamm have created a guide for a more active and participatory classroom, with sample math activities, online resources, engineering activity ideas and more to help create this more active, team-building classroom. Written in a teacher friendly style, ripe with analogies and examples, this book will show teachers how to emphasize teamwork so students of all learning types will become curious and find answers together in our ever-evolving world. -- Taylor Weinfurter, Youth Services Librarian Adams and Hamm write a cogent text including the latest theories on active learning, brain-based learning, multiple intelligences, learning styles and the most up-to-date technology for teachers. By ending each chapter with practical, innovative strategies for immediately putting these theories into practice, the authors provide teachers with opportunities to empower students to become active, responsible learners. Every teacher will find something in Engaging Eager and Reluctant Learners: STEM Learning in Action! to implement in his/her classroom to enhance student outcomes. -- Luann Okel Adams, Wisconsin Teacher This book focuses on helping teachers engage student curiosity in the STEM subjects. Adams and Hamm point out how all students can do creative work in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Stimulating ideas, activities, and lesson plans are designed to encourage a positive view of STEM content and STEM learning. This is one insightful and important book for anyone interested in making a positive difference in the classroom. -- Rebecca Angeles, professor of information and decision sciences, University of New Brunswick, Canada The latest book by Adams and Hamm is a wonderful resource presenting methods to effectively integrate science, technology, engineering, and math into the inclusive classroom setting. The authors provide teachers with realistic and practical lessons that focus on providing all levels of learners with the opportunity to be successful in STEM. As a teacher, this resource provides me with easily understood examples to make learning meaningful to the students in these subject areas, which is often the greatest challenge in present-day classrooms. Throughout the book, educators are provided with various suggestions to ensure students receive opportunities to make connections to the real world, work collaboratively, and that their individual learning styles are met through the use of science, technology, engineering and math. -- Krista Harrietha, teacher, Nova Scotia
