Instructional Rounds in Action is an invaluable guide for those
involved in implementing instructional rounds as the foundation and
framework for systemic improvement in schools.
Over the past few years, districts across the United States, Canada, and
Australia have begun implementing "instructional rounds," a set of ideas
and practices for advancing systemic, district-wide improvement. But as
they do so, practical and theoretical questions arise.
Roberts offers a powerful analysis of how instructional rounds can work
"on the ground." His book weaves together the voices of stakeholders at
all levels--teachers, principals, and district personnel--and presents a
number of protocols to support instructional rounds.
