"What a great book--for those beginning their training and for the in induction programs, as well as all those already in the classroom. Eckert reminds us of the power, complexity, simplicity, and joys of teaching. He asks us to savor the time as teachers, and make the experience meaningful to you, your students, and your colleagues. And he backs this up with so many ways of thinking and doing that remind us daily of why we all entered the profession: to maximize our impact on others." - John Hattie, Visible Learning series
"This is not filled with quick tips or rote formulas, but rather with thoughtful, useful advice anchored in the reality of teaching in America today. Most of all, it is genuine encouragement, reminding us that teaching is a calling that requires systematic preparation, demands significant sacrifice, but yields eternal rewards."
--Renee Moore, @TeachMoore, NBCT, blogger, author |
"Leading Together is the best guidance we have to date about how to collaboratively dismantle the wall that has stood between teachers and school administrators for over a century. This is a marvelously accessible book in which collective leadership is discovered through the eyes and voices of teachers and principals."
