Plot
In an era of structured trainings and top-down mandates, this visionary guide offers a new approach, solidly founded on research, which empowers teachers to take charge of the learning process. It encourages a shift from isolation to collaboration, from imparting to participating, and from content-focused to process-oriented learning, in order to simultaneously boost student achievement and teacher?s professional development.

Bringing the focus back to teaching students how to learn, the author promotes a process of teamwork and modeling that challenges educators to reflect on their curriculum, instruction, and assessment techniques to collaboratively work to improve them.

Highlights include:

  • Ideas on how to powerfully engage students by becoming a co-learner and facilitator in the classroom
  • Tips for analyzing student work with the help of co-workers, and how to incorporate these findings into the lesson plan cycle
  • Adaptable schedules for sessions that last one-half hour to several hours?perfect for time-strapped teachers
  • Calendar of collaborative professional development activities to last the entire school year
