The sciences of learning include cognitive science, educational psychology, computer science, anthropology, sociology, neuroscience, and other fields.

The chapters in this handbook each describe exciting new classroom environments, based on the latest science about how children learn. CHLS is a true handbook in that readers can use it to design the schools of the future - schools that will prepare graduates to participate in a global society that is increasingly based on knowledge and innovation.
