| Summary |
A professional core includes a common language of practice, foundation principles and skills, and related standards. Such a core is present in the medical, engineering, and legal professions. Instructionally, it is not present in the teaching profession. There is no core foundation for critical instruction. Such instruction, long sought but unrealized, leads students to think, read, and write critically for content comprehension. Fixing Instruction provides teacher-educators, teachers, and professional developers for the first time, with an explicit core boy of knowledge for critical instruction. |
