Michael J. Schmoker's "Results Fieldbook Practical Strategies From Dramatically Improved Schools" - Critique
[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. Michael J. Schmoker's Results Fieldbook: Practical Strategies From Dramatically Improved Schools serves to set a precedence whereby five school districts are showcased for stepping away from traditional approaches in exchange for embracing alternative methods that produce results. In examining these five school districts, it becomes clear how there is no single style of teaching that can reach every student; rather, instructors must offer a compilation of methods in order to draw out the learning potential of each individual student. The most astonishing aspect about these strategies is how they do not require extensive amounts of time to see results; using Schmoker's approach, they are both immediate and effective. No additional sources cited.
