Part III: Tools for Learning is filled with practical, field-tested staff development tools that complement the process of building school-based professional learning communities.

This book embraces principles of collegiality, inquiry, learning, and community. It is written by practitioners for practitioners in the hope that collegial learning will be a renewing force in schools during these times of change.
