Full Synopsis
Productive Failure shows you how to design the experience of failing. Research shows that repeated experiences of intriguing, constructive failure can help students develop creativity and learn more deeply.

Learners gain a lifelong readiness to push themselves outside of their comfort zones, using setbacks as launchpads.

The principles in this book are powerful for anyone taking charge of and designing their own lifelong learning. This book unpacks the science of Productive Failure and describes design principles that let you harness Productive Failure for your own benefit.
