In Search of Deeper Learning is an educational book by author Jal Mehta, Sarah Fine.

The first comprehensive study of U.S. public high schools since the 1980s, Seeking Deeper Learning offers a new vision for American education. The vision will set the agenda for schools of the future.

What does it take to transform industrial-age schools into modern institutions that support deep learning for all? Jal Mehta and Sarah Fine took them to some of America’s most innovative schools and classrooms – where educators are rethinking both what and how students should learn.

Drawing on hundreds of hours of observations and interviews at 30 different schools, Mehta and Fine reveal that deeper learning is often the exception rather than the rule. They find a lot of effective learning methods in almost every school, often in electives and extracurriculars as well as in some groundbreaking courses. The author argues that these spaces gain depth because they emphasize purpose and choice, nurture community, and are based on a strong apprenticeship tradition. The classroom is difficult but the integration of deep learning support can be achieved: rigorous with fun, precise at play, mastered with identity and creativity.
