It should be noted that the emphasis on the quality of professional development
is what distinguishes the “It's Being Done” schools, because just about all
teachers have been subjected to professional development in some form or
another.

This straightforward and inspiring book takes readers into schools where educators believe—and prove—that all children, even those considered “hard-to-teach,” can learn to high standards. Their teachers and principals refuse to write them off and instead show how thoughtful instruction, high expectations, stubborn commitment, and careful consideration of each child’s needs can result in remarkable improvements in student achievement.

Karin Chenoweth is a thoughtful observer, a keen analyst, and a good storyteller.” — John Merrow, education correspondent, The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, and president, Learning Matters “How It’s Being Done is a must-read for ...

How It’s Being Done offers much-needed help to educators, providing detailed accounts of the ways in which unexpected schools—those with high-poverty and high-minority student populations—have dramatically boosted student achievement. How It’s Being Done builds on Karin Chenoweth’s widely hailed earlier volume, “It’s Being Done,” providing specific information about how such schools have exceeded expectations and met with unprecedented levels of success.

This work in short shows that “It's being done.” It is being done in large urban
districts, small rural communities, it is being done with high school students, and
it is also being done in early childhood education. It is being done in private and

After a recent CUFA conference, many social studies teacher educators came to realize that pre-service teachers are skeptical of calls to integrate sensitive topics in the curriculum because they do not see it in their field experiences. The purpose of this edited book is to share examples of Pre/K - 12 grade teachers, schools, or school systems that infuse race, class, gender and sexuality in the curriculum. This book offers concrete examples of social studies teachers, schools and schools systems committed to the inclusion of topics often deemed as sensitive or controversial. Care was taken to provide examples from diverse geographic areas, school types (public, charter, private etc.), and grade levels. Researchers teamed with practicing professionals to highlight teachers and schools that successfully integrate race, class, gender and/or sexuality in the curriculum. The chapters provide specific examples of content inclusion, share high leverage practices, and provide advice for others infusing race, class, gender, and sexuality in the curriculum.
