作者簡介
Edward E. Gordon has conducted tutoring research and practice for over 30 years. While teaching in Early Childhood Education at DePaul University, Chicago, Dr. Gordon developed a field-based mastery-learning, diagnostic-development tutoring program used with over 10,000 children. Later while teaching in Adult Education/Workplace Literacy at Loyola University, Chicago, he expanded the tutoring model for use by 20,000 adults. In 1982 the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA) accredited this tutoring program. As a result Dr. Gordon has provided faculty in-service programs on teacher conducted tutoring and student peer tutoring to schools across the United States.
