Introduction

Do you wish more of your assignments for students allowed for imaginative thought?; Do you think it is peculiar that we sometimes teach subjects rather than students?; Do you feel that the arbitrariness of evaluation makes some of our decisions regarding evaluation illogical?; Do you wonder what makes a truly awful teacher?; and Do you find competition between students in school leads to a kind of discommunity?

If these questions grab your attention, then I wrote this book for you.
