Raising Empowered Learners is a game-changing resource for both parents and educators. Author Ed Madison dispels myths about the “reluctant learner” and offers invaluable insights about how to advocate for kids and empower them to advocate for themselves. When teachers tap into students' authentic interests, adopt a journalistic approach, and encourage them to write for real-world, authentic audiences beyond their teachers, he explains, they elicit their best work and make learning more dynamic and engaging. Madison’s thoughtful insights, practical strategies, research, and anecdotes make this book an essential tool for anyone who wants to foster children’s love of learning and help them develop the skills they need to reach their full potential.
