schema:reviewBody""This text offers a perspective for teaching that provokes members of the reading education community to think about their underlying beliefs about teaching and their shared commitment to making schools more effective for the students they serve. It is envisioned as a resource to be used in building a community of learners, to be read with professional colleagues in a course of study, in a teacher/researcher book club, or in some type of inservice setting. Readers are encouraged to debate the ideas presented, to challenge the authors' conceptions with their own reality, and to make sense within a community about what action is desirable. Some specific suggestions and strategies are provided as springboards for further exploration and action."--BOOK JACKET."
