Teaching as Inquiry: Asking Hard Questions to Improve Practice and Student Achievement (Practitioner Inquiry)

by Alexandra Welnbaum, David Allen, Tina Blythe, Katharine G. Simon, Steve Seidel, and Catherine Rubin

Ann Lieberman (Foreword) and Jacqueline Ancess (Foreword)

This book offers an engaging and effective approach to improving teacher and student learning. Based on the experiences of three leading educational organizations, the authors provide invaluable, research-based guidelines for incorporating inquiry into teacher's instructional practices and student work as part of the ongoing work of schools. In addition to discussing the lessons learned and questions raised by inquiry work, this volume includes specific considerations for determining who should be involved, what work should be under review, how it should be reviewed, and how such inquiry should be supported by the school.
