"A Teacher's Guide to Standards-Based Learning systematically shows how standards-referencing defines and unifies planning, instruction, and assessment. The book is more than a 'how-to' primer; it explains why as well as telling how, contains helpful charts for teacher use, and provides a wealth of suggestions for involving students in the process of using standards not only as the end point of learning, but as part of the journey."

Susan M. Brookhart, consultant, Brookhart Enterprises LLC

"Transitioning to a standards-based classroom can be challenging. A Teacher's Guide to Standards-Based Learning, situated squarely within Marzano's framework, will serve teachers and instructional leaders well as they transition to instructional, feedback, and assessment strategies that support learners. This book is a practical and sequential companion for teachers and provides clear, working definitions and examples to assist the practitioner in this journey."

Thomas M. Buckmiller, associate professor, Drake University, Iowa
