Product description Review "Breaking the Mold of Education delivers on the promise of its title. More than a simple recounting of known best practices, it provides a vision of what education can and should be." --Robert J. Marzano, Chief Academic Officer, Marzano Research "This volume of Breaking the Mold is a carefully selected collection of articles, essays, and case studies divided into four broad areas. It takes a hands-on, no-nonsense approach as to how American schools should be tweaked... modified... and overhauled-- to engage and empower our children. Audrey Cohan and Andrea Honigsfeld have brought to the table educational leaders with concrete proposals to jump start the system. Simply put, this volume is required reading for anyone in the vanguard of educational reform." --Steve Kussin, Education Reporter for WCBS Newsradio 880 and adjunct professor, Hofstra University "The fourth book in the five-part Breaking the Mold series is a must-read. Cohan and Honigsfeld thoughtfully compiled research and best practices that center on student engagement. Given our collective concern with college and career readiness and positive behaviors in school, this book should serve as a cornerstone for any educator working with diverse student populations." --Timothy Eagen, assistant superintendent, Plainview-Old Bethpage CSD, New York About the Author Dr. Audrey Cohan is a professor in the Division of Education at Molloy College, Rockville Centre, NY.
