Teachers have begun to appreciate the power of personalized teaching, not only to change students' lives, but also to invigorate their own. To begin, or to reinforce this process of change and invigoration, the Teaching to Each Student workshop guidebook helps high school change teams conduct professional development workshops that immerse school staff in the reality of personalized teaching. Through experiential activities, study, and action planning, participants learn to reorient classroom teaching to allow students with different skills, aspirations, and interests to succeed in meeting uniform standards.

Teaching to Each Student contains topical discussion materials, instructions, graphic organizers, exercises, protocols, and facilitator's guidelines. Includes a CD with printable worksheets.
