Based on the Teaching Schema of the ASCD volume Improving Student Learning One Teacher at a Time, this guidebook covers modifications to curriculum, instruction, assessment and feedback so that teachers can "promote meaningful, lasting learning." Pollock, the director of an independent teaching consultancy, joins with Ford (administrative leadership and policy studies, U. of Colorado at Denver) to implement strategies based upon ideas from successful and innovative school administrators. The authors provide detailed instruction on how to align lesson plans with gradebooks by using a well-articulated curriculum, varying assessment techniques and giving criterion-based feedback.
