Seven paths to the joy of learning and school enjoyment

Contents: How enjoyment disappeared from schools - and is coming back Seven paths to the joy of learning and school enjoyment: 1. Renovation as opportunity 2. School foundation instead of burn-out 3. Getting to the essentials via »value-appreciative school development« 4. »Healthy schools« by means of future workshops 5. Schools for everyone by means of the »Index for Inclusion« 6. Art coaching: the school as an OASE (Open Art Space) 7. The school as a »creative field«

Can school performance really be improved by meticulously »surveying« teachers and schoolchildren? Thanks to the many comparative studies, this belief has become standard, and the word »discipline« is still experiencing a boom – there seems to be no room for the joy of learning or even school enjoyment. In »Positive Education« Olaf-Axel Burow disagrees with this because: school enjoyment and top performance are not opposites, they complement one another!

The author has already carried out future workshops in many schools and has shown: it is not pressure and discipline, but rather value appreciation and »creative fields« which lead to the joy of learning – and consequently to top performance. And, because in tomorrow’s knowledge society more will depend on creativity and innovation than ever before, schools must look for ways to become future-oriented. This book shows how this can be done.
