Description
Book SynopsisTeachers Go to Rehab examines the advice given to teachers from multiple critics both historically and recently. This book looks at the scope, cost, and impact of this advice to teachers, as well as the motives behind it. It poses precise questions about the groups that gave the advice. Who were they? What did they recommend? How did they estimate impact? How did they calculate costs? What aims did they profess? What aims did they conceal? Whom did they attract? Whom did they alienate? When did they succeed? When did they fail?
Trade ReviewThis book will be invaluable to teachers, the professors who train them, and the administrators who hire and regulate them. It presents readers with early and recent efforts to help classroom instructors. It challenges them to specify the reasons that some efforts succeeded while others failed. All educators should read this book. -- Frances G. Davis, M.Ed., Education Program Consultant, Louisiana Department of Education
