Because everyone from policymakers to classroom teachers has a role
in achieving greater equity for children from poverty, this book
provides a sweeping chronicle of the historical turning
points-judicial, legislative, and regulatory-on the road to greater
equity, as background to the situation today. It provides succinct
policy recommendations for states and districts, as well as
practical curricular and instructional strategies for districts,
schools, and teachers. This comprehensive approach-from the
statehouse to the classroom-for providing children who come to
school from impoverished environments with the education in which
they thrive, not merely one that is comparable to others, truly
enlists everyone in the quest for opportunity and performance. The
next step toward equity may be taken by a governor, but it may also
be taken by a teacher. One need not wait for the other.

The recent passage of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA)
presents new opportunities and greater flexibility in efforts to
personalize learning for all children. The Handbook on Personalized
Learning for States, Districts, and Schools provides insight and
guidance on maximizing that new flexibility.Produced by the Center
on Innovations in Learning (CIL), one of seven national content
centers funded by the U.S. Department of Education, this volume
suggests how teachers can enhance personalized learning by
cultivating relationships with students and their families to
better understand a child's learning and motivation. Personalized
learning also encourages the development of students'
metacognitive, social, and emotional competencies, thereby
fostering students' self?direction in their own education, one
aimed at mastery of knowledge and skills and readiness for career
and college. Chapters address topics across the landscape of
personalized learning, including co?designing instruction and
learning pathways with students; variation in the time, place, and
pace of learning, including flipped and blended classrooms; and
using technology to manage and analyze the learning process. The
Handbook's chapters include Action Principles to guide states,
districts, and schools in personalizing learning.
An innovation in learning improves upon the implementation of the
standard practice or introduces a new practice, thus achieving
greater learning outcomes. The Handbook on Innovations in Learning,
developed by the Center on Innovations in Learning, presents
commissioned chapters describing current best practices of
instruction before embarking on descriptions of selected innovative
practices which promise better methods of engaging and teaching
students. Written by a diverse and talented field of experts,
chapters in the Handbook seek to facilitate the adoption of the
innovative practices they describe by suggesting implementation
policies and procedures to leaders of state and local education
agencies.
