This book provides</p> Richly detailed case studies of successful AIW implementation at the statewide, districtwide, and individual school levels Illustrations of collaborative teaming to advance higher-order thinking, disciplined inquiry, and value beyond school Exemplars of how AIW transforms professional development and evaluations and increases coherence and alignment of initiatives <p>There is no such thing as a simple formula for school improvement, but the AIW approaches presented in this book will help school- and district-based teams improve the quality of instruction, assessment, and curriculum for more rigorous and more equitable student learning</p> "It is inspiring to read these educators’ testaments to the profound personal and professional impact of their efforts to promote students’ authentic intellectual work."<br/> —Fred M. Newmann, Emeritus Professor<br/> University of Wisconsin-Madison<br/> <br/> "AIW is an instructional game changer. It has brought coherence across our district’s schools as we help our teachers help students become 21st-century learners."<br/> —Michael Duncan, Superintendent<br/> Pike County Schools, GA
