Our newest book - from Solution Tree Press:

You don’t have to do everything to do the right things well. By engaging educators in collaborative professional learning improvement efforts, we can create the high-quality educational systems to which we all aspire. More Than a SMART Goal provides a rationale and methodology for keeping everyone in the system, including students, focused on the highest priorities (the right things) aimed at improving student learning outcomes. With careful planning and a robust system for measuring and monitoring strategic focus, implementation and impact, investments of time, resources and energy can be quantified and maximized for any reform initiative.

     It is a treasure. You have pulled together the essentials around school improvement and innovation with a reader-friendly writing style on topics and tools focused on student learning. Oh, you are so right! It's all about the student learning!     Carol Commodore 

You can peruse the Table of Contents, read the Introduction and Chapter 3, and buy the book on the Solution Tree site. While there, download the free study guide for the book; it is filled with thought-provoking questions related to the content.

The book is also available from Amazon in both print and Kindle formats and from Barnes & Noble in print and on the Nook. Coming soon to iBooks.
