Your blueprint to entrepreneur-minded schooling

The Take-Action Guide to World Class Learners series provides the most complete information available on designing twenty-first century schools poised to leapfrog into the future! These practice-oriented books expand on Dr. Yong Zhao's acclaimedWorld Class Learners, which presents a new framework for cultivating creative and entrepreneurial students. Now, with this first book in the follow-up three-volume set, Zhao digs much deeper, revealing how exactly to put that framework into effect.

This first book in the series provides specific strategies and practical advice on how to

Incorporate student choice for flexible, student-focused curriculum
Motivate students to turn strengths into passions
Cultivate students' technical, creative, decision making, and communication skills

Implement Zhao's new paradigm shift one phase at a time, starting with Book 1. Better yet, read all three volumes for a complete blueprint to entrepreneur-minded schooling.

"The ideal school should provide opportunities and resources to enable students to personalize their educational experiences instead of receiving a uniform standardized, externally prescribed, education diet."
--Yong Zhao
