Effective Practices in Literacy and Numeracy
"This resource presents research evidence and examples from NSW schools that illustrate effective practices for school improvement, particularly in literacy and numeracy.
These nine 'domains' of effective practice, featured in theNational School Improvement Tool, are brought to life with practical advice for principals and teachers, a wealth of national and international research evidence, plus real examples from NSW of successful teaching and learning at the whole school, classroom and student level.
Independent evaluation evidence gathered in NSW suggests that these domains are closely inter-related. They are most effective when implemented as acoordinated suite of initiatives."http://www.cese.nsw.gov.au/EffectivePractices/
