Zusammenfassung:	OECD economies have experienced the transformation from their traditional industrial base to the knowledge era, in which learning and innovation are central, yet many of today's schools have not caught up; they continue to operate as they did in the earlier decades of the 20th century. This publication summarizes and discusses key findings from the learning sciences, shedding light on the cognitive and social processes that can be used to redesign classrooms to make them highly effective learning environments. It explores examples in OECD countries, from alternative schools to specific cases in Mexico, in which the actors are seeking to break the mold and realize the principles emerging from learning science research. The publication also asks how these insights can inspire educational reform for the knowledge era, in which optimizing learning is the driving aim and in which innovation is both the widespread catalyst of change and the defining result.--Publisher's description.
