A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Crystal Loose has spent 24 years in the field of education. Her previous positions include teaching at various grade levels within elementary levels, reading specialist at k-12 levels, literacy coach and instructional facilitator at k-12 levels, and administrative positions that allowed her to deepen her understanding of teacher professional learning. Having served in positions that required her to create staff development sessions for teachers, she realized how disjointed these learning sessions were for teachers. The content, although interesting, did not always connect to what was taking place in their classroom setting. This led to her doctoral work in Japanese Lesson Study as a method of professional learning. She is still passionate about educating teachers. She now works among future teachers at West Chester University, where she can nurture future educators. Her research interests still remain in the area of teacher professional development. She also works with families, as she researches early transition practices within school districts and collective community impact.
