Research on Educational Innovations Book

Ellis (education, Seattle Pacific U.) updates his guide to distinguishing educational innovative programs backed up by sound research support, from faddish ideas that may pack a wad of political capital but lack a research base. Incorporating evidence-based education and the No Child Left Behind initiative, he explores which research is of most worth, the nature and structure of educational innovation, setting standards, teaching for intelligence, curriculum integration, cooperative learning, and other topics. No dates are noted for earlier editions. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
