A brief text that explores eight, worthwhile, research-based classroom innovations that foster student-centered classroom environments worth implementing into today's school settings. Each innovation is justified through detailed explanation, ways to implement it into the classroom, and how to adapt the strategy to meet the needs of diverse classroom environments. Readers will find balanced examples from every grade level, in addition to curriculum design modules, and easy-to-use templates for applying the innovations and strategies into the classroom immediately.

The eight innovations that support a student-centered classroom discussed are:

  • Essential questions

  • Curriculum integration

  • Standards-based curriculum and assessment design

  • Authentic assessment

  • Scoring rubrics

  • Portfolios

  • Reflection

  • Action Research

Each innovation is featured in its own chapter with a rationale, description, overview, and essential question supported by work samples from teachers--helps teachers make sense of the material presented.
