Publisher's summary

Educational accountability is here to stay. Comprehensive educational accountability, if designed and implemented effectively, can be the one initiative that helps schools create sustained and meaningful reform.

Accountability in Action is a practical, step-by-step guide to the creation of a comprehensive accountability system. This audiobook provides a bridge between standards implementation and the systems that will help schools assess which programs and services result in high student achievement. Dr. Reeves demonstrates how policy makers, leaders, teachers, parents, and students can use comprehensive accountability systems to implement teaching and learning programs that help all students succeed.

Excellent Resource

Excellent resource for helping to internalize concepts for effective accountability systems for improving teaching and learning. The format is great for those who travel alot. The listener can reflect on concepts while listening to the audio book.

The only reason I did not give this audio book a rating of 5 is that there is frequent reference to "see appendices data disk" and I have not been able to locate that component.

Good content, painful narration

This was helpful for me to strengthen my understanding of the moving parts of school improvement. The narration was like an AM radio news update. I had to replay parts frequently as my brain actively tried to shield me from hearing any more of it, but ultimately I think it may have been worth it. Definitely should have gotten the hard copy.
