standards-based learning, and results in increased student
learning. In this book, the authors provide a curriculum and
improvement process that not only shows school leaders how to
design a strong, coherent curriculum but also leads the reader

that curriculum for instructional improvement. This resource is

is curriculum put together? - Who should be involved and what
should be included? - How should we go about it and how long will
it take? - What should be considered during implementation? - How
is curriculum evaluated? Whether you are experienced or just
getting started, Improving Standards-Based Learning provides an
accessible framework with numerous tools for developing a
curriculum that can generate substantive improvement in teaching
and learning.
