Description: "This book is addressed to all teachers, regardless of their pupilb2ss stage of education. Inspired by the solution-focused model, special education teachers Kerstin Mh̄lberg and Maud Sjb̲lom, have developed Solution-Focused Education at their school FKC Mellansj ̲outside Stockholm, Sweden. This offers an alternative approach to engaging with young people and to the learning process itself. The book combines description and discussion in such a way that you, the reader can choose which tools and techniques will most readily adapt to your own situation. It describes in detail how to converse with pupils and their parents in a solution-focused manner, and how to raise awareness of pupilsb2s own resources and focus on what already works for them. By taking up new perspectives on what is happening, a different way of thinking can be created, leading to real solutions."--Publisher's website (www.fkc.se/SFE.htm)
