Making Conversation: Collaborating with Colleagues for Change
by Mark Larson
Category: Education

Larson visits these and many other questions in full view of his colleagues, administrators, and students. He writes open letters to faculty and students in which he explores doubts about his own work as a teacher, his successes and failures in the classroom, his questions about the educational system, and his ideas on how to handle some of the more perplexing dilemmas today's teachers face. His colleagues and students reply with ideas and questions of their own. This book will lead teachers (preservice and inservice), administrators, and education professors to reflect on their own systems, their own teaching methods, the ways they assess student work, and their hope and expectations for their students.
