Whilst American in authorship and context, Fostering Resilience . . . . embraces a global audience of consultant principals and leading teachers. Now in its second edition, the text aspires to facilitate resilient learning communities via the understanding and application of four emotive elements: care for students; high expectations; substantive support; and participation.
Correlational studies highlighted throughout the text strengthen author Martin Krovetz' personal and professional perspective - an insight built upon structured observations and his experience as leading teacher.
As a key education resource, Fostering Resilience . . supports the implementation of proactive methodologies and reflective teaching practice. It is systematic in delivering its message, and celebrates the evolution of stronger / more humane learning communities.
