Ranked in the Top 10 Global Gurus in Education for 12 years, Barbara has dedicated her life to raising the level of rigor and motivation for professional educators and students alike. What differentiates Barbara’s 40 books are her easily executable concrete examples based on decades of experience as a teacher, professor, and consultant. Barbara’s dedication to education was inspired in her early years by her parents, Bob and Rose. Her father’s doctorate and lifetime career as a professor taught her the importance of professional training. Her mother’s career as school secretary shaped Barbara’s appreciation of the effort all staff play in the education of every child. In addition to speaking at state, national, and international conferences, she also regularly presents virtual and on-site workshops for teachers and administrators in elementary, middle, and high schools. Her workshops are lively and engaging and filled with practical information.
I was very disappointed with this book. It included strategies that have been around since I was a student and, even though those strategies are not necessarily bad, they are certainly dated and not new. Many of the topics were basic and ones that any teacher in the classroom, or even ones who are currently in training, would already know. I was also bothered by the amount of typos and errors throughout the book. The editor definitely needed to do one more check prior to publishing. Would not recommend for teachers or students wanting to become teachers.
