5.0 out of 5 stars "This We Believe" is a MUST read for educators!, June 9, 2009
This relatively short book (51 pages) lays out fourteen characteristics which serve as a map for creating an environment in which today's adolescents can learn. Eight of the traits describe the facets necessary for a user friendly culture while the remaining six outline characteristics which are necessary to reach the desired culture.

It is visionary and should be required reading for all involved in the education of our youth. The ideas in this position could be used for professional development, personal growth or parent presentations.

The characteristics tie in very well with all of the articles published in the NMSA's journal-- "Middle School Journal". In fact, each article in the magazine refers back to one of the fourteen characteristics described in the book.
