Rethinking School Reform: Views from the Classroom

Rethinking School Reform puts classrooms and teaching at the center of the debate over how to improve public schools. The collection of essays offers a primer on the broad range of pressing issues, including school vouchers and funding, multiculturalism, standards and testing, teacher unions, bilingual education, and federal education policy. Informed by the experience and passion of teachers who walk daily into real classrooms, Rethinking School Reform examines how various reform efforts can promote - or prevent - the kind of teaching that can bring equity and excellence to all our children, and it provides compelling, practical descriptions of what such teaching looks like.
