Association for Supervision & Curriculum Development The Highly Effective Teacher: 7 Classroom-Tested Practices That Foster Student Success
What are the secrets to unlocking student success? And what can teachers do to get better at helping students develop deep understanding of content, attain higher-order thinking skills, and become secure, confident, and capable learners?In this book, teacher and professor Jeff Marshall showcases how teaching with intentionality answers these questions. Specifically, he introduces the Teacher Intentionality Practice Scale (TIPS), a framework for both supporting and measuring effective teaching. Taken together, the framework's seven TIPs provide a research-based, classroom-tested guide to help teachers: Create coherent, connected lessons. Use strategies and resources, including technology, that truly enhance learning. Organize a safe, respectful learning environment. Develop challenging and rigorous learning experiences. Promote interactive, thoughtful learning. Nurture a creative, problem-solving classroom culture. Deliver feedback and formative assessment that inform teaching and learning. Marshall's needs-assessment instrument can help teachers, working independently or in a cohort, determine the best starting point for improving their practice. Practical, straightforward rubrics for each TIP describe the various levels of teacher proficiency. Based on his own teaching experience and observations in hundreds of classrooms, Marshall also offers action tips for each framework component and a list of resources for further study. Written for teachers and leaders at all levels and in all content areas, The Highly Effective Teacher is a guidebook for thoughtful, intentional teaching with one goal: success for all students, in every classroom.

Association for Supervision & Curriculum Development Rise to the Challenge: Designing Rigorous Learning That Maximizes Student Success
Do you sense that some students have mentally ""checked out"" of your classroom? Look closely and you'll probably find that these students are bored by lessons that they view as unchallenging and uninteresting. In this follow-up to The Highly Effective Teacher: 7 Classroom-Tested Practices That Foster Student Success, Jeff Marshall provides teachers with a blueprint for introducing more rigor to the classroom by: Reorienting themselves and their students toward active learning—and establishing the habits that allow it to flourish. Creating a classroom culture where students aren't afraid to take risks—and where they grow as learners because of it. Planning the same lesson at different levels of challenge for different levels of development—and designing assessments that gauge student progress fairly without sacrificing expectations. Implementing inquiry-based activities that push students beyond their comfort zones—and that result in well-rounded learners with stronger character and sharper thinking skills. Leveraging the latest research in the field as well as years of hard-won classroom experience, this book offers practical strategies, replicable examples, and thoughtful reflection exercises for educators to use as they work to help students embrace the mystery, complexity, and power of challenge.
