“Follow the science.”
How often have you picked up an education book to read how, according to the authors, the system is broken, failing, and flailing―but their ideas for fixing it will bring about a miraculous transformation?
That’s not the approach of this volume.
Sure, the editors believe that our system of education could achieve significantly better results. But they also recognize that schools have gotten better over time. One explanation is the progress schools have made in “following the science”. Especially in early reading and math instruction, scholars know more now about what works than we did in the past, and more schools are putting that knowledge into practice.
Now, in the wake of a horrific pandemic, even the best elementary schools are struggling to help their students get their momentum back again.
In this book, the editors share high-quality syntheses of evidence and insights from leading educators, academics, and other experts. And they communicate those findings in user-friendly language, with an understanding of the real-world complexities of schools and classrooms.
