What these experts found in their research and their work with teachers and students upends our normal expectations about how to engage students and what learning is. They show how great teachers embrace and dance with the tensions in schools, students, and learning that hinder other teachers. They reveal how great teachers transform their own identities and the identities of their students so everyone becomes a lifelong learner. And they provide vivid examples and inspiring stories of practical ways to accelerate learning among children, youth, and adults.

"Provides a framework that enables readers to examine their own beliefs and practices and begin a journey to deeper, more effective teaching. All teachers and administrators who want to explore their own learning and professional growth should begin with this book." --Brian A. McNulty, PhD, Vice President of Leadership Development, The Leadership and Learning Center "What I really appreciate about this book is the emphasis it puts on teacher performance and its focus on strengthening practices that emphasize the learner and learning rather than the extreme focus on results, with the understanding, of course, that the results will follow. This is a tool that could really help all teachers grow." --Melissa Cropper, President, Ohio Federation of Teachers "Invites teachers to participate in 'paradoxical thinking' to help them see new possibilities. It is rich in examples and practical possibilities and offers a powerful path to promote professional learning." --Marilyn Parsons, Professor, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, and Associate Head for Undergraduate and Certification Programs, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign "The very best teachers are the ones who know their learning is never done. Bringing together the expertise of academic research, this book offers tangible ways that reflective, growth-oriented teachers at any level can help themselves continue to grow their practice." --Ellen Moir, CEO, New Teacher Center "This is highly practical, with real classroom case examples, useful tools, well-grounded guiding principles, and more. It is honest and intensely relevant for the teachers and the schools that are under undue pressures these days, a book that has heart and soul." --Jim Evers, retired teacher and author of Becoming a School Where Everyone Matters and Crisis in School Management "The authors have uncovered insights that characterize the extraordinary teachers who produce results three or four times higher than normal teachers. Their careful insight and compelling illustrations provide guidance that every teacher, parent, and leader will find useful." --Kim Cameron, Associate Dean and William Russell Kelly Professor of Management and Organizations, Ross School of Business, and Professor of Higher Education, School of Education, University of Michigan "This book identifies the characteristics of teachers who really make a difference. The highly effective teacher will feel reinforced. The teacher looking to improve will learn from stories and research that are inspirational and implementable. This should be required reading for everyone entering the education profession." --R. Kirk Hamilton, PhD, Executive Director, Buckeye Association of School Administrators "In the same way that transformational leaders make a difference in the lives of their employees, transformational teachers create the platform upon which inspired and committed students exceed expectations. Based on the authors' groundbreaking research, this book is for anyone interested in helping students reach their highest potential." --Julian Barling, PhD, Borden Chair of Leadership, Queen's School of Business, and author of The Science of Leadership "Teaching is about so much more than pedagogical technique or student test scores. The authors effectively capture the complexity of the craft of teaching and provide a thoughtful conceptual road map for understanding the dynamics of what it truly means to be a highly effective teacher." --Thomas J. Lasley, Executive Director, Learn to Earn Dayton, Dayton Foundation, and Professor, School of Education and Health Sciences, University of Dayton "Can highly effective teachers help their peers 'set classrooms on fire'? The Best Teacher in You not only says yes but also tells us how. Teachers, parents, and public-policy m --Carl F. Kohrt, PhD, President and CEO (retired), Battelle Memorial Institute
