Proficiency-based Instruction: Rethinking Lesson Design and Delivery; Your Implementation Strategy for Proficiency-based Instruction

Only by shifting away from a one-size-fits-all approach to teaching and learning can every student achieve self-efficacy and true success in the classroom. In this resource, authors Eric Twadell, Mark Onuscheck, Anthony R. Reibel, and Troy Gobble provide educators with a comprehensive strategy implementation process for proficiency-based instruction. Readers will gain a clear five-step change management process for seamlessly transitioning to a new, improved model of instruction and curriculum planning in which individual student self-efficacy and growth come first.
