The Academic Achievement Challenge: What Really Works in the Classroom?

Jeanne S. Chall
Book Description
The last book by this highly esteemed educational researcher synthesizes all of the research about effective classroom instruction. This is both an important topic for educators, but a timely one as well. At a time when American education seems to be in disarray about how to effectively educate our diverse students, this book illuminates a path to follow. Chall develops a well-reasoned and persuasive argument on which she bases her conclusions, making it a pleasurable read.
