4.0 out of 5 stars Wow..., February 28, 2006
This review is from: Transforming the Multicultural Education of Teachers: Theory, Research, and Practice (Multicultural Education, 12) (Paperback)
Vavrus' book outlines systematic methods for teacher-educators to facilitate radical classroom transformation. His precise critiques aim to dismantle status quo pedagogical methodology...and they succeed. Instead of stopping at debunking educational mediocrity, though, Vavrus uses his analyses to provide a framework for what teaching methods create success in schools.

I highly recommend this book to any teaching program that wishes to produce dynamic professionals!
