- Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2012I have long been concerned that educators often do not think about the need to both model, and more importantly, explicitly teach metacognitive skills. Thankfully, the authors of this book outline the importance of executive functions, and a research based coaching program for modeling and teaching executive skills through guided practice and gradual release. The authors even (wisely) suggest starting the process by engaging in peer coaching with colleagues in order to master this important set of educational skills. How many teachers today can honestly say they learned how to be self reflective in school, or how to prioritize and break down larger projects into meaningful steps and checkpoints? The authors, familiar with the use of these strategies in high school, provide recommendations and ideas for implementing the coaching program in elementary and middle school, as well as in college and alternative educational settings. They provide masters of forms used in the program, and tips for ensuring individual and group accountability in the classroom setting. An excellent book for every teacher, and a great professional / staff development project!!

Update: the seller was very proactive and refunded the COD charge that should not have been applied. I’m very satisfied with their response.
Original Review: This book is quite expensive already, plus the seller requires you pay for shipping. I was required to pick up the book at the post office and pay over $13 for tax and handling. All in the actual price of the book was more than $57. I sure hope it’s worth it!

Fabulous book for educators who wish to go beyond tutoring, this book is a well articulated easy to follow guide on how to run mentoring sessions, support skill building and foster a sense of competence and independance in students with difficulty in these areas! Great training tool!
