Summary "Study after study traces much of the documented decline in the American public school system to inadequate teacher training and prepartion. In the late 1970s a group of educators at Boston University, dissatisfied with then current models, pioneered a new approach to teacher training, which is subsequent years proved and enormous success. The fabled 'Tuesday-Thursday' and 'Agassiz Village' programs, springing from this initiative, contained already the reforms which are advocated today. This invaluable text tells the engaging and highly-readable story of how this remarkable initiative originated, what its guiding ideas were, and how it was so successfully implemented. As testing instruments and supporting documents are included as well, this text presents something like a complete handbook for genuine reform in teacher training. It contains everything needed for aspiring educators wishing to follow in the steps of those pioneers."--Back cover.-
