In this sequel to Lent's bestselling This Is Disciplinary Literacy, the authors provide educators with what they've wanted all along: a framework that keeps their subjects at the center and shows them how to pool strengths with colleagues in ongoing communities of professional learning(PL) around content specific theory--back cover. |
