Reveals how centering teachers' experiences and insights is essential to understanding schools and creating meaningful, lasting educational reform.What if the most important voices in education have been the least heard?In Teachers, Marilyn M. Cohn and Robert B. Kottkamp bring readers inside the lived experiences of teachers—revealing the realities behind policy debates, reform efforts, and classroom change.
