Abstract

The ability to provide a robust and balanced assessment of a “person-in-environment” comes from a deep and theoretical reading of the situation enabled through knowledge acquisition and the development of a particular type of concentration and focus. A flexible framework for incorporating a book club into a course is provided in this chapter to facilitate academic reading habits and deep learning.
