About this title

Synopsis

This book will help teachers and researchers uncover the connections between what is known about language and literacy acquisition and how teachers can create conditions for peer talk in a variety of settings. "Peer Talk in the Classroom" sets itself apart from most texts because it describes the research underlying the instructional practice and explains how the practice was planned, implemented, and evaluated in a classroom setting.
