Targeted for pre-service and in-service teachers, this book is a guide to "what to do and how to do it in a very practical sense." It addresses four essential topics: organizing and planning for instruction, classroom management, instructional techniques, and assessment. Each of the areas is addressed in a user-friendly, resource-style format, and includes activities and templates to provide readers with a framework for developing their own styles. Coverage of the four main topics is arranged in sub-topics that follow a five-step format of conceptualization, content, planning, implementation, and reflection.

A School By Every Other Name calls for a revolution that would reconceptualize the institution of education. That effort begins with overcoming our national cultural identity crisis. Rather than prescribing what must be done, A School By Every Other Name presents poignant perspectives and background and then invites the reader to begin answering the questions that could lead to building a new institution of education. Not just a book about education, A School By Every Other Name is a workbook for beginning the dialogue toward systemic change in American schools.
