Now in its fifth edition, the Handbook of Research on Teaching the English Language Arts--sponsored by the International Literacy Association and the National Council of Teachers of English--remains at the forefront in bringing together prominent scholars, researchers, and professional leaders to offer an integrated perspective on teaching the English language arts and a comprehensive overview of research in the field. Reflecting important developments since the publication of the fourth edition in 2017, this new edition is streamlined and completely restructured around "big ideas" in the field related to theoretical and research foundations, learners in context, and new literacies. Addressing all the language arts within a holistic perspective (speaking/listening, viewing, language, writing, reading), it covers new and important topics, such as online learning, multimodalities, culturally responsive learning, and more.

Create strong and effectives PLCs plus—and that plus is YOU What makes a powerful and results-driven Professional Learning Community (PLC)? The answer is PLC plus— "plus" being the vital role teachers play in teaching and learning. Grounded in four cross-cutting themes—equity, high expectations, efficacy, and facilitation from discussion to action—the PLC+ framework supports educators in questioning practices, not just outcomes. It broadens the focus on student learning to encompass educational equity and teaching efficacy, and, in doing so, it leads educators to plan and implement PLCs that maximize individual expertise while harnessing the power of collaborative efficacy.

The focus of this book is to provide teachers with the tools to cultivate engaged learners, which includes developing healthy relationships with their students, based on research suggesting that positive teacher-student relationships improve achievement.

This book scaffolds teachers as they learn to develop effective text dependent questions across ELA, science, and social studies/history with the goal of assisting students to read closely and comprehend deeply.

In this book the authors debunk the myth that Text Dependent Questions are all level 1 who, what, when where, how questions and instead offer readers a purposeful and thoughtful instructional routine that includes four levels of questioning as well as a focus on talk and collaboration every step of the way.

This work, built around the lessons of classroom teachers, provides the "how" of instruction design. It identifies the most important components of design, addressing standards, designing multiple assessments, and identifying detailed source materials.
