Providing them with feedback and listening to the feedback they have for us? Too often we have left students out of the dialogue of learning, but those times are changing. </em>In Partnering with Students to Build Ownership of Learning<em>, Mary Jane O'Connell and Kara Vandas share practical and proven methods of putting students at the center of their own learning. </em></p>--Peter DeWitt, Corwin consultant and author of Flipping Leadership Doesn't Mean Reinventing the Wheel<br><br><em>Mary Jane O'Connell and Kara Vandas have taken a courageous step in connecting the dots on several pieces of strategic research about student learning. They have provided classroom teachers with practical templates with which to apply the teacher's planning for instruction in partnering with students to build ownership for learning.</em>--Ainsley B. Rose, Professional Development Associate, Corwin Press<br><br><em>Most of us are quick to agree that teachers shouldn't do all the work when it comes to student learning, but we're not always sure how to do that. In </em>Partnering with Students to Build Ownership of Learning, <em>O'Connell and Vandas tell us how to do that in an extremely practical and theoretical book. If you want to know how to get students to do more of the work, then you should read this book.</em></p>--Jim Knight, Author of Instructional Coaching: A Partnership Approach to Improving Instruction<br><br><em>O'Connell and Vandas provide a wealth of information to educators proving that it is not only important to be student-focused and driven, but essential if students are to reach their fullest potential. In an era where we seemingly complicate things because we can, it is refreshing to see a book like this that is clearly written, driven by commonsense, evidenced by good practice, and supported with tools and clear examples to support both the teacher and learner.</em>--Russell J. Quaglia, President/Founder<br><br><em>Practical, perfect for professional learning communities and independent study. An extremely rich resource for educators who genuinely want to empower students to be successful in college AND careers. The research supported strategies put forth press educators to engage in deep reflection and analysis of their personal beliefs and practices while equipping them with practical techniques to engage students in rigorous, relevant ways in the classroom which translates to VISIBLE LEARNING!</em>--Kim S. Benton, Chief Academic Officer, Deputy State Superintendent<br><br><em>The book walks the reader through all of the steps involved in moving every classroom to a collaborative learning experience. The authors ensure that the reader (teacher or principal) sees how these concepts are scaffolded together to create a learner-centered environment . . . This is a book that gets better and better each time you read it. It drives you to take action. I look forward to making changes in my classroom using these strategies. The authors clearly have a vision of the classroom feel and the learning experiences that move students to own their own learning.</em>--JoAnn Hiatt, Mathematics Teacher<br><br><em>This book gives step-by-step suggestions on how to become a partner with students - to help them be better, and not just in your content area. Expose students to the methods in this book, and they will use them for the rest of their lives. And they will thank you for it.</em>--Nancy Foote, 8th Grade Conceptual Physics Teacher<br><br><em>Vandas and O'Connell do a masterful job of making the research on student achievement completely accessible, relatable, and immediately usable in the classroom. This book is profound in its ability to do this while putting the tools for implementation into the hands of teachers and their students.</em></p>--Kelley King, Principal, Education Speaker & Consultant<br><br><p><em>The book provides a much-needed guide in developing student-focused classrooms.</em></p>--Marsha L. Carr, Assistant Professor and former Superintendent<br><br><p><em>The TRUST Model presented by O′Connell and Vandas captures the essence of what our most effective teachers do to ensure students are co-owners of the classroom and their learning. The authors have articulated exactly what is needed to create the engaging classroom environments we need in our schools.</em></p>--Karen Brofft, Superintendent<br>
