"This volume ... describes the approaches these teachers have developed--from informal, 'turn-to-your-neighbor' discussions that punctuate a lecture, to more complex small-group activities, to ambitious curricular reform through learning-community structures. Their vision and accomplishments have deepened our belief that change and reform and increased student learning are possible even under the most challenging conditions."--Jacket.
