Quizá ya conocía muchas de las estrategias que menciona el autor, o quizá el libro se me ha hecho algo repetitivo tanto en las propuestas como en la propia estructura. Aunque incluye ideas interesantes y algunas reflexiones bastante útiles, la lectura termina resultando un poco pesada por la gran cantidad de ejemplos descriptivos sobre el trabajo del alumno y del profesor.
Además, creo que la edición ganaría muchísimo si incluyese ilustraciones, esquemas o recursos visuales que hicieran el contenido más dinámico y fácil de seguir. En general, es un libro con buenas intenciones y algunas propuestas valiosas, pero que podría haberse desarrollado de una forma más ágil y visual.
