Gabor Kertesz: Robert Marzano's book, The new art and science of teaching, gives me more answers than it raises questions. What a refreshing read in the educational science continuum! I wish I had discovered it sooner.

Gregory C. Poe: Great read. Marzano gives 3 elements for every chapter, and there are about 10 suggestions for every element. It's great for teachers to see hundreds of practical ideas. If you take 3-4 ideas from this, it's worth it.

That said, you'll inevitably disagree with several of Marzano's ideas - this isn't the Bible. He seems to advocate for boring lecture-based lessons and doesn't give attention to soft skills. But this book is still very valuable and I've already loaned it to another teacher.

William: The prose was a little dry and I'm a bit disappointed at most of the citations being Marzano's own research, however this is a good collection of research-backed strategies and the student perspectives of their effects.

One thing that is different about this book versus the older Art and Science of Teaching is that this one does not have all of these tables listing the research effect size of every strategy, it just tells you the strategies. However, I know that the core concepts are indeed based in educational research, I just wish that it was made more clear in this edition.

M. Carter: This book is easy to read and super helpful to me as a high school teacher. The tables make it very easy to see some simple strategies that will improve my instruction this fall. Yes, there is text that is kind of wordy and academic, but in terms of usefulness of the contents, those tables of strategies can't be beat. I feel they are "quick hits" where I can open up the book, pick a strategy, and use the very next day. These little things can make a big difference without a huge investment of time. Yes, overall in a perfect world you would overhaul your practice and implement each step like proficiency scales and so on- that would be great- but even if you don't have time for all that you can use this book. It is great for all teachers, whether you want to change a lot or just a little.
