Why have billions of dollars spent on technology, small-school initiatives, and school-choice options failed to improve our schools?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToo often, educators are simply pulling the wrong levers, say Tony Frontier and James Rickabaugh. They explain that the various components of schooling fall into five categories: \u003cem\u003estructure\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003esample\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003estandards\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003estrategy\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eself\u003c\/em\u003e. Understanding how these five levers work--and their relative power--can help unlock the potential for lasting improvements in teaching and learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors show readers that changes to \u003cem\u003estructure\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003esample\u003c\/em\u003e (how schools are organized and how students are grouped) will not be effective without changes to \u003cem\u003estandards\u003c\/em\u003e (expectations for student learning), \u003cem\u003estrategy\u003c\/em\u003e (instructional strategies to engage students in meaningful learning), and \u003cem\u003eself\u003c\/em\u003e (the set of beliefs teachers and students have about their capacity to be effective).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of this book is a simple message for teachers, administrators, board members, and education policymakers at all levels: the key to success is not doing \u003cem\u003emore\u003c\/em\u003e work and making \u003cem\u003emore\u003c\/em\u003e changes, but doing the \u003cem\u003eright\u003c\/em\u003e work, and making the \u003cem\u003eright\u003c\/em\u003e changes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46501099864215,"sku":"9781416617549","price":3298.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781416617549.webp?v=1769196131","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/five-levers-to-improve-learning-how-to-prioritize-for-powerful-results-in-your-school-9781416617549","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
