He has just published another book: RESULTS NOW: How We Can Achieve Unprecedented Improvements in Teaching and Learning.

Mike Schmoker argues convincingly that if student achievement is to improve, especially in the higher-order profi ciencies, instruction will necessarily have to change and improve simultaneously. He sets out a clear but simple agenda to achieve such a transformation in American schools. This book should be required reading for everyone in educational leadership and anyone concerned about the quality of teaching and learning.
