About this product

Product Information

"A credible plan for transforming secondary education by educators already involved in pioneering the change." Ron Brandt Writer and Consultant, Former Executive Editor, ASCD "Finally, a clear and practical approach for implementing genuine school improvement based on high standards. Marsh and Codding have gone beyond the rhetoric of many high school reform leaders and have addressed the needs of parents and practitioners alike. Their "collection of essays" represents a powerful and pragmatic blueprint for a new American high school. Bravo." Robert A. Mackin , Finalist, National Principal of the Year, NASSP, and Principal Souhegan High School Amherst, New Hampshire This book begins by focusing on where American high schools are now -- based on a picture of a real, "high-performing" school. Authors share their perspectives on how high schools are lagging in preparing students for life after school. In subsequent chapters, Marsh, Codding, and Associates paint a powerful picture of what high schools could be like. They discuss examples of reform efforts that look at classrooms, students, and outcomes in new ways. The authors offer these proposed changes to American high schools: Student performance assessments that capture conceptual understanding, problem solving, and communication Curriculum based on student outcomes, constructivist knowledge, and school-to-career applications Learning activities that challenge students to think, solve problems, and collaborate School cultures based on enhanced learning, meaningful staff-student interactions, and ongoing professional development If youre interested in new directions for your high school -- and you want to know how to get there you need to read this guide.
