Here's What They're Saying:
“The style with which this book is written distinguishes it from others in the field. In addition, the resources it offers make it more practical and less theoretical than other texts in the field.”
Alicia Mendoza, Florida International University
“As I read through Cox's text, I found it to be readable and quite comprehensive. It is clear that the author really knows what she is talking about. Excellent examples are given throughout the book, with actual excerpts of student work given as well. I believe that these are of the utmost value as they help pre-service teachers to visualize student work before going into the classroom.”
Cecile Arquette, San Diego State University
