The Value of Higher Education

Monica R. Martinez, Ph. D

“The best book on education I have read in the year 2014. Really great look into what makes deeper learning possible for schools. Great examples with many that could be applied to any school. I will be sharing this with every educator that I know.”

This book offers a clear introduction to DL ideas and methods and the motivation behind them. It is a fast read and will interest educators who want to produce self-motivated, passionate learners with a goal that looks beyond passing tomorrow’s quiz.

“Our job is to make our students the best versions of themselves.”

“…a rare blend of inspiration and practical action.”

“Deeper Learning is a wonderful book that should be read by every educator, parent, and policymaker.”
