Privateáschools, charter schools, and homeschools have freedom to implement the changes that will actually improve education and increase student achievement. So where do we start in science? What is needed is nothing short of a paradigm shift in the way we teach and in the ways we expect students to learn.Centripetal Pressáfounder and author John D. Mays has identified three areas of focus that have proven to be true game changers for student academic achievement: Mastery, Integration, and Wonder. These three core principles are at the heart of all Centripetal Pressátextbooks.The first step toward improving academic performance is to change how we define success in our classes. The method most students use is what we calláThe CramâÇæPassâÇæForgetáCycle. In this futile cycle, which is ubiquitous in schools and colleges across the nation, students cram for their tests, pass them, and then soon forget most of what they learned. Success in such an environment revolves around jumping through hoops, not genuine learning. Students are bored by this regimen, and teachers are demoralized by the results.By contrast, we promote teaching methods and curriculum materials designed to promote aáLearnâÇæMaster&ndash,Retain Cycle. This first involves culling down the bloated curriculum so popular today. A reduced-scope curriculum enables students to learn a reasonable amount of material deeply, instead of giving shallow attention to scores of topics that they will neither comprehend nor remember. Students who learn this way typically outperform their peers as they move to higher level classes.Second, leading students to mastery and retention requires teaching methods designed to produce these results. The standard approach used today involves teaching a chapter and giving a test on the chapter. By contrast, pedagogy designed for mastery and retention involves continuous review, ongoing accountability for retention of previously studied material, and embedding of basic skills into new material. Of course, an effective method includes innovative strategies to enable students to master course content.á
