Recenzii

"Invitation to Inquiry is an absolutely essential text for teachers, teacher educators, and soon-to-be teachers. The chapters deliver both theory and practice in how to conduct teacher inquiry through reflection, connection, and application in a user-friendly, straight-forward way. Case studies walk the reader through the process of teacher inquiry and remind us that collaboration is essential for growth. As the authors state, grab your backpack and notebook and join them in this life-changing journey!" — Katherine Batchelor, Miami University, USA.
"Teachers can feel enmeshed in a network of curricular demands, rubrics, and the established routines of schooling. But the best (maybe the only) way to claim agency is to ask questions and pursue them, to seek alternatives, and to follow a thread of inquiry. In this book, Mary Buckelew and Janice Ewing will take you on several pathways—from involving ELL students, to writing argumentative essays, to creating literature circles –showing how initial teacher questions and difficulties can develop into rich lines of inquiry, causing productive disruptions of the status quo." — Thomas Newkirk, University of New Hampshire, USA
"Don’t be daunted by teacher research, action research, inquiry into your own teaching practice that keeps students at the center. Buckelew and Ewing show you how to be reflective practitioners and enact strategies and attitudes that lead you to understand and promote your students’ growth and development in English Language Arts." — Tom Romano, Miami University, USA
"This book offers up-to-date classroom and school vignettes, practical tools, and scholarly depth for preservice educators and seasoned practitioners hoping to go deeper into their questions. The authors invite readers to ‘reflect,’ ‘connect,’ and ‘apply,’ posing tailored questions that spark dialogue and discussion. The vignettes themselves are wonderful mini-cases drawn from urban, rural, and suburban contexts that are highly instructive and provocative for educators working on their craft through classroom-based research." — Laura Roop, Director, Western Pennsylvania Writing Project, USA
"Mary Buckelew and Janice Ewing have produced an inspiring, yet deeply practical book that aims to lead a new generation of Language Arts teachers and their colleagues into the rich tradition of action research by and for teachers. They succeed beautifully." — Elyse Eidman-Aadahl, National Writing Project, USA
