While traditional approaches to learning and teaching stress cognitive aspects of development and learning, their approach to learning synthesises the cognitive, affective and social dimensions. They reveal personal and social learning as being part of the whole school experience and the effective learning of all in the school community. The book espouses the nature of learning within this radical model and highlights key social values such as equality, respect and justice. |

While traditional approaches to learning and teaching stress cognitive aspects of development and learning, this text advocates an approach which synthesizes the cognitive, affective and social dimensions of learning. Revealing personal and social learning as being involved with the whole school experience, the authors support the nature of learning within this radical model, and highlight key social values such as equality, respect and justice. |
