Foreword by Michael Fullan

Cultivating cognitive capital is a refreshing new direction for educators to embrace. The ideas and recommended actions in this fascinating book support a culture of thoughtful innovation which develops mindful and resourceful professionals. The contemporary learners in our classrooms need nothing less. Heidi Hayes Jacobs, president, Curriculum Designers, Inc., curriculum21.com Building on the authors celebrated work in cognitive coaching, this important book provides teachers, schools, and policy leaders with the rationale and new direction for enhancing the development of the intellectual capacity of educators, their performance, and their ultimate effects on student learning. The authors focus on assisting teachers in developing awareness in their own ability to make effective judgments based on all their capabilities and experiences. When teachers weave internal expertise and external criteria together into the exquisite tapestry of teaching and learning, they gain confidence in their ability to make a difference for all students. Rather than spending time becoming better inspectors and enforcers, Cognitive Capital calls for skillful leaders to engage educators thought processes which promote practices that have high impacts on their students.

What It All Means for Politics, Policy, and the Future of Schooling
Edited by Frederick M. Hess, director of education policy studies, American Enterprise Institute (AEI) and executive editor of Education Next, and Michael Q. McShane, research fellow in education policy studies, AEI.

Eyes on Math

This book raises the hard questions about implementing and sustaining the Common Core State Standards so they dont end up in the dustbin of abandoned public education reforms. These new standards can help students enormously in becoming problem solvers and critical thinkerswhich is essential in the 21st centurybut only if teachers become engaged in the rollout, get the support they need, and the fixation on high-stakes testing gives way to a fixation on learning. Randi Weingarten, American Federation of Teachers Adopting the Common Core in a mad dash for federal gold, policymakers across the country blew right past critical questions about how theyd implement the thing. This volume is a must-read for anyone who hopes to avoid total Common Core disaster. Neal McCluskey, Center for Educational Freedom, Cato Institute, Washington, DC This timely volume brings together prominent scholars and policy analysts to examine the pressing issues that will mark Common Core implementation. Whether or not you agree with the standards, the Common Core is coming, and this book will help policymakers, practitioners, and other stakeholders anticipate the challenges and take steps to address them.

Getting Teacher Evaluation Right

What Really Matters for Effectiveness and Improvement

Linda Darling-Hammond

New

Cookson does a superb job of analyzing the powerful forces in our schools that reinforce the racial, ethnic, and social-class structures our nation hopes to overcome. He reminds us of what high schools can be, the great equalizers, institutions for promoting Americas finest values. David Berliner, Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, Arizona State University

Darling-Hammond has given us a practical roadmap to success based on research and best practice. Randi Weingarten, American Federation of Teachers

Darling-Hammond knows that we must get teacher evaluation right and her book is as clear a guide for doing that as we will ever see. Ronald Thorpe, National Board for Professional Teaching Standards In her new book, Linda Darling-Hammond makes a compelling case for a research-based approach to teacher evaluation that supports collaborative models of teacher planning and learning. She offers a vision of teacher evaluation as part of a teaching and learning system that supports continuous improvement, both for individual teachers and for the profession as a whole.
Apr 2013/192 pp./PB, $25.95/5446-7/HC, $68/5447-4

In his groundbreaking study, Cookson demonstrates that adolescents undergo different class rites of passage depending on the social-class composition of the high school they attend. Drawing on stories of schools and individual students, the author shows that where a student goes to high school is a major influence on his or her social-class trajectory. Class Rules is a penetrating, original examination of the role education plays in blocking upward mobility for many children. It offers a compelling vision of an equitable system of schools based on the full democratic rights of students.

Finding Superman
Debating the Future of Public Education in America
Edited by Watson Scott Swail

Foreword by Michelle Fine

Using a combination of engaging narrative and rigorous analysis, this book explores how immigrant youth are included in, and excluded from, various sectors of American society, including education. Instead of the land of opportunity, immigrant youth often encounter myriad new borders long after their physical journey to the United States is over. With an intimate storytelling style, the author invites readers to rethink assumptions about immigrant youth and what their often liminal positions reveal about the politics of inclusion in America.
