The book discusses the failed reform initiatives of the 20th century’s “one size fits all” model for American education. A recommendation is made to adopt a systemic change in how, why, and what we teach, which takes the form of a new whole-child framework. This new educational narrative fosters a more learner-centered, constructivist, interdisciplinary, and meaningful approach to learning. Positive education offers educators new strategies to develop character strengths and promote well-being in their students.
James Trifone holds a PhD in education from the University of Lancaster, UK. He is the academic director of the Master of Arts in Learning and Thinking [MALT] degree program, offered at The Graduate Institute in Bethany, Connecticut. This program consists of an innovative and learner-centered approach for preK–12 educators who strive to develop and integrate a holistic twenty-first-century whole-child approach into their classroom teaching.
