Book Synopsis"This is exactly what my school needs right now to support colleagues to build on the foundations of our written concept-based curriculum and to take-off our taught curriculum to the next - and highest - levels." Neville Kirton, Deputy Head of Secondary Colegio Anglo Colombiano, Bogota, Colombia "Filled with strategies, illustrations, diagrams, and pictures, this book really gives you the insight you need to help students better understand what they are learning. So many great ideas that can be used in any classroom. A must read for all educators." Amanda McKee, 9th, Algebra/Geometry, Secondary Certified Instructor/Mentor Johnsonville High School, Johnsonville, SC Create a thinking classroom that helps students move from the factual to the conceptual All students deserve the opportunity to think conceptually. But seeing conceptual relationships does not come naturally to every student. How can teachers construct thinking classrooms where students can move from the factual to the conceptual level of thinking? Concept-Based Inquiry in Action has the answers. In this book, the authors marry theory with practice to create a new framework for inquiry that promotes deep understanding: Concept-Based Inquiry. The key is helping students to inquire into concepts and the relationships between them using guiding questions developed by the teacher, the students themselves, or by the teacher and students together. Step by step, the authors lead both new and experienced educators to implement teaching strategies that support the realization of inquiry-based learning for understanding in any K–12 classroom. The book and its accompanying website are rich with the resources necessary to facilitate the construction and transfer of conceptual understanding, including Numerous practical teaching strategies, aligned to each phase of Concept-Based Inquiry, that can be modified for diverse populations Visual notes that represent significant ideas discussed within each chapter Videos of instructional strategies and teacher interviews that show Concept-Based Inquiry in action in K–12 classrooms around the world Templates of graphic organizers, sample anchor charts, and blackline masters that support the use of teaching strategies in the classroom Planners that show how the phases of Concept-Based Inquiry come together in a unit In a world filled with complexity, the role of the teacher as a facilitator of conceptual understanding has never been more pressing. Concept-Based Inquiry in Action provides teachers with the tools necessary to organize and focus student learning around concepts and conceptual relationships that support deep understanding.Trade Review"For all its pedagogical purity, concept-based learning continues, no doubt, to perplex in practice. This book synchronizes concept and inquiry-based learning, demystifying the theories that underpin them and providing a wealth of practical classroom strategies that, ultimately, serves to deepen students’ conceptual understandings. This is exactly what my school needs right now to support colleagues to build on the foundations of our written concept-based curriculum and to take-off our taught curriculum to the next - and highest - levels." -- Neville Kirton, Deputy Head of Secondary"I feel that this is a book that is timely and needed for a clearer picture of Concept-based Inquiry in action. This is a manuscript that educators would be able to pick up, understand, and apply into the classroom." -- Brenda Booth, Coordinator of Consultant Teachers, Concept-Based Trainer"Filled with strategies, illustrations, diagrams, and pictures, this book really gives you the insight you need to help students better understand what they are learning. So many great ideas that can be used in any classroom. A must read for all educators." -- Amanda McKee, 9th, Algebra/Geometry, Secondary Certified Instructor/Mentor"It’s not every day that you read educational literature that you know will immediately have an impact on developing and improving your teaching practice. This book is like a guide that will lead you through the steps to becoming a better Concept-Based teacher. It is a book that teachers will take to planning meetings, have open, and refer to everyday. Just as a travel guide leads you too new discoveries this book will lead you to new discoveries with Concept-Based Inquiry. With this book you will see change and success in not only your teaching practice but also the understanding that the students will have in their learning." -- Trudy McMillin, Grade 5 PYP teacher, Lower School Maths CoordinatorTable of ContentsForeword by H.

Book SynopsisImprovement in Action, Anthony S. Bryk's sequel to Learning to Improve, illustrates how educators have effectively applied the six core principles of continuous improvement in practice. The book highlights relevant examples of rigorous, high-quality improvement work in districts, schools, and professional development networks across the country. The organizations featured in the book have addressed, with remarkable results, long-standing inequitable educational outcomes in high school graduation rates, college readiness, and absenteeism. The cases emphasize the measures the educators took and the thinking that motivated their actions. Bryk describes how improvers, working in different contexts and confronting different problems, used select principles, tools, and methods to make improvement come to life. Brief analytic reflections are embedded throughout the narratives, and each chapter concludes with an analysis of a set of larger lessons illuminated by the organization's story. Taken as a set, these examples offer readers valuable insights about the actual dynamics of doing improvement work.Improvement in Action, paired with Learning to Improve, provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the practice, method, and theory of large-scale continuous improvement in education.Table of Contents Introduction 1 Attacking Inequities in Postsecondary Opportunities 2 Supporting Improvement Through an Analytic Hub 3 Becoming a Learning Organization 4 Infusing Improvement into a Charter Network 5 Advancing Instructional Improvement 6 Transforming a School District 7 Charting Paths Forward Notes Acknowledgments About the Author About the Contributing Authors Index
