Riassunto

We have heard from scholars, policymakers, and business leaders about how to improve our schools, but those who actually work in K-12 education rarely have a chance to speak out. This volume addresses that imbalance by providing the views of teachers and administrators who have been recognized for exemplary contributions to their profession. Chapters discuss different approaches, focusing on instilling values, teacher education, restructuring schools, assessment, meeting the needs of a diverse student population, and collaboration between the schools and universities and businesses. Instead of theoretical solutions, practical approaches and proven results are emphasized.
