Effectively organized in a recurring format that includes the what, why, and how of the topic in focus, each chapter concludes with a nutshell summary, a check-in reader assessment and related implementation activity, along with teacher-voice tips and testimonials in print and video formats. What's unique and noteworthy in this book is its powerful set of collaborative protocols focused on evidence, analysis, and action that puts students at the center of the teaching and learning process. This clearly reflects the authors' stated ultimate goal: 'for students to be able to independently assess their own learning.′</em>--Larry Ainsworth, Author of Common Formative Assessments 2.0: How Teacher Teams Intentionally Align Standards, Instruction, and Assessments (8/19/2016 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>At its compelling core </em>Leading Impact Teams<em> is about intentionally creating, growing, and nurturing interdependent systems of support and collaboration. This message is more critical than ever given need to fundamentally rethink how we approach education in support of student centered approaches. </em>Leading Impact Teams<em> offers one of the most thoughtful, powerful, and purposeful books in a long time that holds the potential to both catalyze and transform educational systems. Through an immensely enjoyable read, Bloomberg and Pitchford provide an accessible and easy-to-follow roadmap to the complex journey of building efficacy and teams. This book is a must read for educators and policy makers who are committed to bringing out the best in systems, students, and communities. </em>--Alan J. Daly, Chair and Professor (8/19/2016 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>This will be a great book with which to implement Impact Teams in school districts! The ideas are easy to follow and teachers will be given strategies to use that will enhance student learning.</em>--Susan E. Schipper, Primary Grade Teacher (5/26/2016 12:00:00 AM)<br>
