Synopsis
THE BOOK FOR EVERY TEACHER WHO HAS EVER BEEN FRUSTRATED BY THE DECISIONS MADE OUTSIDE THEIR SCHOOL THAT AFFECT THE STUDENTS INSIDE THEIR SCHOOL. How to Be Heard offers every teacher 10 ways to successfully amplify his or her voice, and demonstrates that when teachers voices are heard, they will be rightfully recognized and supported as change leaders in their schools. Celine Coggins, a renowned teacher advocate, offers nuts-and-bolts strategies that are recognized as the "price of admission" to becoming a credible and welcomed participant in important policy conversations and decisions. The author clearly demonstrates that it is not only possible for teachers to initiate change, but to also effectively participate on the policy playing field. In ten clear chapters, the author demonstrates how teachers can and must advocate for their students and their profession. Throughout this book Coggins proves that "If youre not at the table, youre on the menu." This how-to guide is filled with concrete ideas for engaging in productive decision-making, using real-world examples from teachers who have successfully used these strategies.

- u***l (600)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasefast shipping; packaged OK; item was not as described; A+C-D- Could have been protected better(always a risk when a book is shipped in a bubble envelope), but no perceivable shipping damage. This book was described as 'Like New'. Far from that! The dust jacket had considerable blemishes; the book had bumped corners; it looked like the previous owner had eaten a bag of Doritos and proceeded to NOT clean the fingers or pages while reading the book. As this was a gift, I spent HOURS cleaning!!!
