Research on student achievement shows that improvement begins with the expectations of the classroom teacher. Combining high expectations and research-based practices enables teachers to deliver high-quality education in any environment. What Is It About Me You Can't Teach? provides urban educators with the tools they need to help all students achieve successful educational outcomes.
This second edition discusses the challenges faced by urban students, examines the research base that supports "high expectations" instruction, and provides countless practical strategies that can be implemented at all grade levels. The authors include
- Strategies to help students become active, engaged learners
- Ways to help students to take control and responsibility for their own learning
- Methods for developing students' cognitive skills
- Sample lesson plans that demonstrate using the strategies at all levels
- A new chapter on professional development for urban educators
Shapen your own knowledge and skills so that you can effectively help your students reach higher levels of knowledge and achievement.
