About this listen

Collaboration. Empowerment. Student leadership. These buzzwords get a lot of press, but what do they really mean for today's students? Can students really handle the responsibility of leading the class? Can they actually learn what they need to if they are working together so often? Won't all this freedom cause chaos in the classroom? Not if you're teaching them to learn like PIRATES!

Peer collaboration builds community and supports teamwork and cooperation.
Improvement-focused learning challenges students to constantly strive to be their best.
Responsibility for daily tasks builds ownership in the classroom.
Active learning turns boring lessons into fun and memorable experiences.
Twenty-first century skills engage students now and prepare them for their futures.
Empowerment allows students to become confident risk-takers who make bold decisions.

In Learn Like a PIRATE, teachers will discover practical strategies for creating a student-led classroom in which students are inspired and empowered to take charge of their learning experience. You'll learn strategies for:

  • Crafting active, relevant, and interesting lessons
  • Creating opportunities for student leadership
  • Providing effective and beneficial feedback
  • Instilling confidence so students can take risks
  • Increasing curiosity and passion for learning

Incorporate the techniques and strategies Paul Solarz uses in his student-led classroom and watch your students transform into confident, collaborative leaders.

Inspired

Loved the perspective of this inspirational educator. This is a must read for those wanting a student centered class. I'd love to see this concept adapted and applied in a secondary setting.

Informative book, but choppy, second-rate narrator

Thought I could multitask and get the information from the audiobook, but the narration was so distracting that I had to switch back to reading.

The narrator has no flow and seems often not able to judge the rhythm and cadence of the authors sentences. Often it reminded me of the syntax a young student learning to read affects - just choppily stringing together words with no comprehension.

Perhaps this is just personal annoyance, but if you think something like that might bug you during the 6 hours of listening, I would recommend just reading the book yourself.
