"The motives for manufacturing myths are not so much the theme of this book as are exposing and dispelling widespread current practices as myths. Frase and Streshly expose the myths that retard educational improvement and suggest reforms that would cost the taxpayer nothing."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Change the entire school culture with this collaborative method of supervision! For years, the classic supervision model has frustrated both principals and teachers by fostering superior-subordinate relationships, focusing on teacher conformity rather than growth, or producing checklist data that are irrelevant to the curriculum. The Three-Minute Classroom Walk-Through offers a practical, time-saving alternative that impacts student achievement by cultivating self-reliant teachers who are continuously improving their practice. This method answers principals' key questions: Is the work of my teachers aligned with district curriculum? Are my teachers using research-based "best practices"? Are they choosing the instructional strategies that will promote student achievement?
