"As technology becomes more widespread and the world continues to change in many other ways, teachers have adapted to allow education to evolve with the 21st century. This book provides theoretical foundations and highly practical strategies for classrooms tackling modern challenges, drawing in part on the ideas and experiences of practising teachers. The authors highlight how crucial education is for equipping future generations with the skills for individual, societal and planetary wellbeing, while still considering the pressures of 'teaching to the test'."
