About this item

This new edition of a classic work is written for educators invested in the moral imperative to do what's right for all students. The authors work from the mindset that PLC at Work® is a continuous process of school improvement. The result is a revelation of best practices affirmed by the latest research and a confirmation of the power of the three big ideas and four critical questions of this proven process. Learn how to sustain the work of collaborative teams to ensure best practices in instruction, assessment, intervention, and more. Discover new ideas and perspectives on school leadership and school culture. Delve into greater specificity on what issues Professional Learning Communities at Work® can positively impact. Learn how to effectively provide extra time and support for students who struggle and extensions for those who have already reached their learning goals. Understand what research shows is ineffective for student success and why such practices should be discontinued.
