  •  
    Leadership is far from a science. Many would even argue that it is more of a form of art.

Educational Leadership: Reaching the Reluctant Learner: The Book Trailer: Engaging Teen... - 0 views

  •  
    Having students create trailers instead of giving traditional presentations opens up the modes and media students use to communicate. Students can use images, motion or special effects, a recorded soundtrack, and print text to share their thinking, their interpretations, and their critiques of the books they read.
