About this title

Synopsis

Improving our nations' public schools is among the most critical concerns of Americans today. While advocates have instituted hundreds of reform efforts, few have culled and presented the best educational practices proven to spur student achievemnet-until now. Do What Works provides teachers, parents, and community leaders with viable tools to deliver an excellent education to every student. These capacity-building practices result in outstanding performance in ages ranging from preschoolers to high schoolers, in even the most challenging circumstances. The text both describes these effective practices and presents specific evidence of how high-performers are using these tools-enabling others to put these beneficial practices to use. Goes along with "No Child Left Behind"
