Most pre-service education students are enthusiastic about the
progressive, constructivist, and student-centered theory and
practice advocated in many teacher education programs and by the
National Council of Teachers of English. Yet in actual day-to-day
practice, teachers often have trouble thinking of ways in which
such student-centered and constructivist practices in literacy
instruction can be implemented in classrooms which are increasingly
driven by high stakes tests, increased accountability, and mandated
and even 'teacher proof' scripted curricula. Teaching Authentic
Language Arts in a Test-Driven Era provides a powerful and
much-needed counterargument to the assumption that test-driven
curricula preclude meaningful instruction and authentic student
engagement within a Language Arts curriculum. Providing teachers
with the theoretical stances and pedagogicals tools to develop a
Language Arts practice which can be personally rewarding as well as
beneficial to students,Teaching Authentic Language Arts in a
Test-Driven Era empowers teachers to be effective even within the
confines of a testing- and accountability-driven curriculum.
