Unmistakable impact

A staggering amount of evidence shows that our schools are not as effective as they should be, and they are working toward improvement. This book simplifies the process for becoming an Impact School through targeted, consistent professional learning that is done with teachers, not to teachers. Award-winning author Jim Knight describes how to translate staff members' joy of learning into high-leverage practices that achieve dramatic student outcomes. Characteristics of impact Schools include. A focused, clearly defined improvement plan that takes into account the complexity of teaching and learning relationships. A school culture that encourages enrollment in ongoing professional development. Alignment of purpose and actions among all staff members. Included are tangible tools for use by principals, workshop leaders, professional learning communities, and instructional coaches. --Book Jacket.
