Mastery Based Learning in Mathematics (K-8): The Evidence Behind It

School improvement is always at the forefront of all educational discussions. In this book you will learn how a low performing school improved to the top five in their respective district by adopting a new evidence based practice: Mastery Based Learning. You will learn step by step how to implement this from the perspective of an administrator and educator. This school is located in Urban Ohio and has a diverse population comprised of 100% free/reduced lunch and a 15% mobile student population. This publication is written with examples and a step by step process to implement with the correct staff members. Over 30 sample problems that can be integrated into your classroom immediately.

I loved all of the fantastic ideas for the implementation of Mastery Based Learning IM3 Model shared by the authors. The authors also shared examples of Mastery Based Learning in Mathematics strategies as well as a multitude of mastery based math questions from the principal and teacher. They also included student strategies and responses to this new initiative and how it was implemented with such great success.

I just finished reading Mastery Based Learning in Mathematics (K-8). The energy and dedication that these two educators have for their students is amazing. As a teacher, I know of the challenges and difficulties that all teachers face, especially in inner city schools

It is nice to find a book that has sample problems. This book is applicable for all educators and does not "live" in the heavy research that so many books "live" in. I can implement these strategies that actually make sense and improve students. Very easy read and step by step process to implement. Well done and can't wait for the next edition.
