A critical question for teachers is, "What happens in my classroom that creates the most student success." Teachers who identify the sources of student achievement, and the blockages to student progress, have critical information for program and teaching improvement. This handbook shows teachers and principals how teachers can examine what is happening in classrooms and then make that data the basis for future changes by the teacher. Teachers conducting action research in their classrooms create their own professional growth, to the benefit of both themselves and their students. Action Research For Teaching Excellence is a critical resource for school improvement and teacher professional growth.
