Transforming Teaching in Math and Science: How Schools and Districts Can Support Change (Sociology of Education Series) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Teachers often want to learn new ideas and approaches to improve their teaching, but their efforts are often blocked by structural constraints in their districts and schools. How can schools overcome these barriers to provide more supportive environments for change? The authors answer this question through the study of six cases of schools and districts where teachers and researchers collaborated to develop teaching for understanding in math and science.
