Grant Lichtman has guidance for anyone ? teachers, parents, administrators, government officials ? intent on helping young people succeed not ?someday,? but today.? ? Daniel H. Pink, best-selling author of Drive and A Whole New Mind ?Grant Lichtman?s book is a clear and comprehensive guide to the ?what" and the ?how? of educational transformation. Organized around essential levers for change, it is a must-read for anyone who wants to make a difference in our schools.? ?Tony Wagner, Harvard Ilab Expert in Residence, and best-selling author of The Global Achievement Gap and Creating Innovators? ?This book gives me hope for a brighter future in education. Despite the dark clouds imposed by misguided policies, Grant Lichtman diligently tells stories of grass-roots innovations in the classrooms and schools all over the world. Moving the Rock is an inspiring call to action for all educators.??Yong Zhao, Ph.D., Foundation Distinguished Professor, School of Education, University of Kansas ?If you have children, or teach children, or want our children to succeed, this is a must-read book.  Grant Lichtman throws down the challenge for all of us; that WE can change education, and he shows us just how successful schools everywhere are overcoming change-killing inertia in our schools.? ?Todd Rose, best-selling author of The End of Average; Harvard University Moving the Rock: Seven Levers WE Can Press to Transform Educationgives educators, parents, administrators, students, and other stakeholders a clear paradigm for transforming our outmoded schools into schools that will help our children to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
