商品簡介
Simon (education, California State U. Sacramento) provides classroom teachers, support team specialists, and school leaders with strategies for helping students build resilience, to improve learning and close achievement gaps among disenfranchised student groups. Emphasizing student perceptions, rather than the school system's response to achievement gaps, and including the voices of students throughout the book, he discusses theories about resilience and resiliency protective factors like the impact of caring adults and student participation, and tools for mitigating student risk factors: a caring school team, an engaging classroom, and putting student learning first. He ends with leadership implications. Annotation c2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
