Try going a week without hearing a call for a massive overhaul of
our educational system. Parents, students, educators, bureaucrats,
pundits . . . everyone says something must be done. But what? And
who should do it? In this environment, school leaders must build
bridges for change. As the system now stands, many students spend
great portions of their lives feeling inferior if they struggle,
invisible if they already know the material, problematic if they're
not a child of the dominant culture, and perverse if they question
the school agenda. This book explores how school leaders can
develop responsive, personalized, and differentiated classrooms.
Differentiation is simply a teacher attending to the learning needs
of a particular student or small group of students, rather than
teaching a class as though all individuals in it were basically
alike. Expert educators teach individuals the most important things
in the most effective ways. No single approach works with all
students. Classrooms function best when teachers and students join
to develop multiple avenues to learning. Until every student is
growing and successful, our own growth is unfinished. The authors
show how school leaders can encourage and support growth in our
classrooms.
