Summary:Annotation In lhis book, Barbara Rogoff puts into practice the theoretical account she presented in her highly acclaimed book =A6666nticeship in Thinking. Here, Rogoff collaborates with two master teachers from an innovative school in Salt Lake City, Utah, where she conducted extensive research into whatis involved when people learn--students, parents, and teachers alike. Illustrated with observations by participants in this school, this book shows that children and adults learn by participating within a community of learners. Their experiences will speak to all those interested in school improvement and in how people learn through engaging together in activities ofmutual interest.
