Studying and Learning in a High-Stakes World - Making Tests Work for Teachers (Paperback)

Designed to help middle and high school teachers, as well as students new to the rigor of college, Studying and Learning in a High Stakes World incorporates test preparation into classrooms without asking teachers to "teach to the test." Instead, it enables teachers to focus on course content while simultaneously providing high quality, scaffolded study strategies. Whether they are facing a high stakes exam, or merely preparing students for a chapter quiz, the strategies modeled in this book allow teachers to "use" tests as platforms for students' learning. This book is divided into three parts that address how to: *Get students organized and in the right frame of mind to study, learn, and take tests *Study for essay and objective tests *Answer essay and objective questions and take tests Studying and Learning features close learning strategies, ESL Best Practices, and alignment to the Common Core State Standards in order to help teachers make tests work for them.
