Summary:

Dimensions of Learning, an instructional framework founded on the best of what researchers and theorists know about learning, teaches that learning has five dimensions: positive attitudes and perceptions, acquiring and integrating knowledge, extending and refining knowledge, using knowledge meaningfully, and productive habits of mind. Dimensions of Learning is a valuable tool for reorganizing curriculum, instruction, and assessment. The 2nd Edition is more than 100 pages longer than the 1st Edition and contains an expanded discussion of Dimension Five and a new section on performance assessment and rubrics.
