A meta-analysis of research on strategies that work to increase student academic achievement. Can be dry in places, but also is a dynamic approach to helping teachers apply strategic teaching in their classrooms. Pair with Marzano's book on technology and the Classroom Instruction that Works for ELL's and you have got a winner! ( )

This is a very dry book with a lot of excellent ideas. Though hard to read, it is valid in what it presents. ( )
