Reviews

“Journey Toward the Caring Classroom, 2nd Edition, brings to life all of the key concepts in teaching and facilitating healthy learning. It is an easy-to-read, masterful blend of theory and practice that will help any educator create a classroom full of engaged learners. A real treasure that is sure to make a difference in the lives of your students! The material is thorough, thoughtful and detailed in content and resourcefulness. I look forward to applying the new information to the team facilitation classes that I teach at Penn State!”

“The theory, research, and discussion of social/emotional competencies is solid! This is what we need to make our case in public and conventional private schools. This book is timely and appropriate in that it meets schools’ needs and desires for culture and climate change, addressing bullying, social justice, and social–emotional development while balancing those needs against the needs for research-based instruction and curriculum design and the requirements to meet state standards (in many cases). I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing this work, particularly as a user of the previous book, as a facilitator, experiential educator, and teacher in a huge public school. I applaud the work Frank has done here, and am excited to see how she developed her work to keep up with where education seems to be headed.”
