"This book is indispensable when the role of schooling and education needs to be made more relevant. It is excellent support for the call to reimagine schooling and education and redesign the learning and teaching process. The experiences of developed countries like Australia, the UK, the USA, and Finland in achieving significant gains in schooling and education provide lessons for other countries that aspire to make a difference in their educational systems. It is an excellent read with brilliant insights."

The book ‘Redesigning Student Learning in Secondary Schools: Enhancing the student and teacher experience’ by Professor Dr. John Dewar Wilson is an outstanding effort in which he reviews a range of proposals in order to personalize secondary schooling in the western countries such as USA, UK, and Australia. He suggests redesigning schooling system where students and teachers would work collaboratively to achieve the learning outcomes through the exploitation of ICT. As the traditional schooling system runs mechanically where students’ individual differences are not very often taken care of and students are considered as inanimate objects to be processed in schools, the school leavers are not efficient enough to act in the society humanely. Redesigning secondary schooling system as suggested by Professor Dr. John Dewar Wilson demands attention of the world so that they can redesign secondary education in order to tighten the relationship between schools and communities. The current world needs an education system which fosters learners’ creativity, individuality, and engagement. This book of John Wilson, I firmly believe as an experienced teacher educator, would provoke thoughts of those who are engaged in secondary education as teachers, education planners, and education managers all over the world including Bangladesh."
