Praise for this book
"Exceptionally useful, well-organized, and supported by research."--Linda Diaz, Program Specialist for Professional Development (10/26/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"A fresh new approach that offers creative thinking strategies for administrative leadership teams. Few textbooks have such detailed examples combined with the background study of best practices. The authors have great credibility, experience, resources, and abundant research to support their proposal. A very well-written text offering ample review of the research."--Sara E. Spruce, Professor of Education (10/27/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"We used the Designing Instruction process to redefine our entire curriculum and instructional program, and our student achievement has shown steady improvement!"--Cynthia A. Lemmerman, Superintendent (11/29/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"The Designing Instruction process helped us focus our efforts on effective teaching practices and the overall improvement of our entire delivery system. We have dramatically improved our pedagogy and the learning outcomes of our students."--Jon Hood, Principal (12/1/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"Through the Designing Instruction process, our district empowered teachers to design a standards-based curriculum, develop yearlong curriculum maps, and devise unit plans that integrate best practice teaching and testing methods into every classroom, and our principals have become the stewards who facilitate and sustain the process!"--Lynne Gale, District Administrator (12/1/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"What a godsend! Our teachers developed a K-12 standards-based curriculum in math and language arts, and teams of teachers developed course tools that were based on best practice research to deliver our new curriculum in every classroom. As our test scores began to go up, the gap between sub-groups began to narrow. We are thrilled with our success, and the district has continued the process ever since."--Joan Sigafoos, Retired School Improvement Director (12/4/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"My highest priority was for schoolwide reform that would improve daily classroom instruction--a comprehensive program that would assist teachers in their choice of curriculum, their efforts to differentiate, and their choice of teaching-learning strategies. What we′ve accomplished using the Designing Instruction program has been outstanding!"--Meredith Davis, Principal (12/14/2006 12:00:00 AM)
"An invaluable, practical guide for teachers and administrators and education libraries at the college level."--The Bookwatch, December 2007 (1/29/2008 12:00:00 AM)
"The authors outline instructional design within the context of school reform. By presenting the material in an accessible way, the book combines theory with practical applications."--Education Libraries, Spring 2008, Vol. 30(3) (5/28/2008 12:00:00 AM)
