Leading Impact Teams by Paul J Bloomberg
Heres a way to tap into the scheduled team planning time your school already has, and maximize teacher expertise and increase student learning.
"Leading Impact Teams offers a great blend of rationale, research, and doable applicationEffectively organized in a recurring format that includes the what, why, and how of the topic in focus, each chapter concludes with a nutshell summary, a check-in reader assessment and related implementation activity, along with teacher-voice tips and testimonials in print and video formats. What’s unique and noteworthy in this book is its powerful set of collaborative protocols focused on evidence, analysis, and action that puts students at the center of the teaching and learning process. This clearly reflects the authors’ stated ultimate goal: ‘for students to be able to independently assess their own learning.′" -- Larry Ainsworth, Author of Common Formative Assessments 2.0: How Teacher Teams Intentionally Align Standards, Instruction, and Assessments
