About this listen

How did we conclude that the best way to prepare kids for the future is to cluster them into classrooms by age and grade, forcing them to learn the same things, at the same time and pace, seven hours a day, five days a week, for 12 years?

We trust the school system to prepare our kids for the future. We get excited when they get good grades or disappointed if they don’t. But we rarely stop to question whether school is teaching our children the right things in the right way.

Kids could get good at playing the game of school, but are they really learning?

Teacher-turned-edupreneur Ana Lorena Fábrega, known by her students as Ms. Fab, invites us to rethink education.

In The Learning Game, she reveals how traditional schooling has gone wrong and proposes a series of actionable strategies to help kids learn.

What if we guide kids to think for themselves?

Should we encourage kids to take risks and tackle projects of their own?

How do we help kids learn to love learning?

Answering these questions and many more, The Learning Game will arm you with practical tools to design a new approach to learning—one that leaves behind the game of school and prepares your kids for the game of life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Every parent & educator must read!

I'm going to buy a stack of these and hand them out to every parent and educator I know.

Ana does a fantastic job covering a lot of ground on psychology, educational philosophies, motivation, and learning strategies... and all while making it an enjoyable read / listen!

This book is a quick, must-read primer for parents contemplating their child's education path as you'll get a good look under the hood about what our government-run American K-12 system will NOT do for your child. Educators should read this too as it will give practical and inspiring tips for managing student and classroom dynamics for better learning outcomes.

Great cause, clear narrative, well researched

All of the book is a neat, consistent narrative. The author's voice is crisp too, which helps with the audio.

I would have liked some more examples. In order to avoid being prescriptive, the author went too abstract in many places. Some more real examples would make the book stronger.
