"Sergiovanni documents cases of schools that have successfully reinvented themselves in order to establish a sense of 'community' as the foundation for all curriculum and instruction decisions. . . . Teachers, administrators, teacher educators, and communities seeking advice and motivation for restructuring schools for the 21st century would be well advised to consult this work." --Choice "Provides the practitioner with both a theoretical blueprint with which to build learning communities and a rich supply of benchmark illustrations to use as prototypes. . . . Thought-provoking and challenging." --NASSP Bulletin "Sergiovanni is the leading writer in pushing us deeper and deeper toward understanding and creating a 'community of learners.'" --Michael Fullan, dean of education, University of Toronto "Sergiovanni does not just extol the virtues of educational communities.

    Great seller, super fast shipping, book in great condition, wrapped really well and arrived with no issues. Seller included a sweet note that made us smile! The photos of the book matched the reality. The value was great, seller accepted my offer. Thank you! This movie tie-in edition is a good collector’s item for fans of the Keira Knightley movie.

    Sam accepted an offer for a lower price than he was asking for a Disney lunchbox. It was a fair price. He packaged it with more padding than I would have expected and sent it off immediately. It came in the condition that he described. He even included a personal note for me. It was a pleasure buying from him.

    The quality of this used book was even better than I expected! It was described as "like new", however, I'm not sure it had ever even been read before. It arrived in some of the best packing I have ever seen for a book....or anything else for that matter. A thoughtful, kind handwritten note was included that made it even more special. It is evident that this seller cares about customer service and takes great care in delivering their product. I would highly recommend purchasing from them!
