商品簡介
Just as there is an achievement gap between students, there also is a gap between teacher inservice training and US education reform. Rodgers and Pinnell (education, Ohio State U.) map out "what is" and "what might be" scenarios in their introduction to ten chapters exploring alternatives to the usual didactic workshop. The final contribution describes Reading Recovery as a successful literacy intervention strategy for at-risk first graders. Lacks an index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
