Against School Reform (And in Praise of Great Teaching)
About this book
In this authoritative book, Mr. Temes sets out a straightforward prescription for our schools which centers on the life of the individual teacher and rejects the billion-dollar school reform industry. The book celebrates the power of individual teachers to make a difference in their schools and communities, as forces for bottom-up change. A cogent and stylish writer who brings zestful insights to his subject. Urgent reading. -Daniel Asa Rose, Forward
