New educational initiatives depend upon the ability of everyone involved, especially students, to work together. Educational leaders are beginning to understand that in order to increase student achievement, communities and their schools must work together. This means building community, identifying concerns and resources, coordinating participation and planning action together, so that school communities can direct change. This book encompasses strategies, activities and lesson plans on how to facilitate the process of dialogue with students, schools and communities.
