This book uses researched based, problem-solving measures to help graduate and undergraduate students, as well as current educators, construct and develop potential solutions to these problems. The focus of this book is to be used as a tool to assisting learners to use researched based methods to assist them in problem solving real world problems in a theoretical, safe environment of the classroom where they can be lead and assisted by their colleagues, peers, and instructors.

Reviews

As an adjunct professor and public school administrator, this is must read. Real School Issues: Case Studies for Educators provides support and guidance to tackle concerns affecting schools today. The authors weave years of research within applied learning activities in a persuasive and engaging format. -- Debbie Cano, Director of Intervention, Denton ISD
Finally there is a publication that every administrator can use to prepare new teachers for real issues in today's classrooms. In REAL School Issues: Case Studies for Educators, the authors have hit a home run by putting together a wonderful collection of contemporary topics and case studies for preservice training. This is a book that every leader will want to add to their reference toolkit. -- Gary T. Ray, Associate Vice President for Enrollment & Marketing, Texas State University
