Priority on Learning: How School Districts and Schools Are Concentrating Their Scarce Resources on Academics (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Priority on Learning: How School Districts and Schools Are Concentrating Their Scarce Resources on Academics (en Inglés)"
Sometimes it may seem to school administrators that there are as many complaints about the way schools are run as there are students. Administrators are struggling with tight budgets, exhausted teachers, a much more diverse and demanding student population than ever before, conflicting policies from the federal, state, district, and school levels, skeptical parents and community members, and a myriad of theories and suggested instructional strategies from educational researchers. There are so many bandwagons that it must be overwhelming just determining which ones to ride on. What's an educator to do other than throw in the chalk and find another occupation?Fortunately, as this book reveals, despite the conflicting views and fading funds, there is plenty of good news in education today. At no time have there been so many involved in finding solutions to the challenges in education as there are today. Among educators, there is a general mood of collaboration, sharing, enthusiasm, and caring.This book, written by Lori Jo Oswald, Ph.D., provides an overview of how school districts and schools are making learning a in schools, in spite of scarce resources.
