Give your lesson plans a makeover! Would you rather listen to a lecture or play classroom Jeopardy? Research shows that the most successful learning happens when teachers engage their students in actively applying concepts. This book shows you how to enhance lessons with 95 research-based strategies that work for all subjects and grade levels. In addition, the authors explain the research on student learning, describe best practices, and provide tools for analyzing your lessons. This step-by-step guide shows how to remodel lessons
This book contains some good ideas in guiding teachers to revise existing lessons to meet the demands of the CCSS. However, most of the strategies are not new; plus, most of the strategies, though conducive to all grade levels, are written in an elementary format. As a result, given the price of the book, I would not purchase the book, particularly for high school teachers.
