Genre: Communication in education
ISBN: 9781570350412

Productive learning occurs when educators work together to create new visions, analyze important issues, and evaluate outcomes. This book explores how educators can effectively engage in peer problem solving, focusing on three aspects of the process: (1) models for consulting with colleagues in problem solving; (2) communication skills necessary for consulting; and (3) how to collaborate with colleagues with differing interpersonal styles. Within these three main areas, the essential skills that educators need for working together, such as trust building, listening, facilitating, collaborating, questioning, communication, and peer problem solving are illustrated through interactive strategies designed to empower educators to become proactive, rather than reactive with conflict. Chapter 1 begins with an overview of consulting. Chapter 2 describes a comprehensive problem-solving process. Chapter 3 explores strengths and limitations of three interactive approaches for consulting: facilitative, collaborative, and authoritative. Chapters 4 and 5 review communication skills. Chapters 6 and 7 describe the wide range of interpersonal styles. Chapter 8 explains how we can work effectively with people who have different interpersonal styles. Chapter 9 and 10 examine issues that make consulting with peers successful and those that make it challenging. Four appendices contain self-evaluations. Contains 41 references and an extensive list of resources. (JBJ)

"Detective Mihd'i Montgomery lives in Pine Bluff, Illinois, where he is a detective in the Pine Bluff police department. He is a member of the Bah'i Faith, and he is happily married with two children. Unlike most members of a police force, Detective Montgomery carries no gun. A rabbi in the Beth Shalom Synagogue has been murdered through a blow to the head with a heavy brass candleholder, and hateful graffiti has been spray-painted throughout the synagogue. As he begins interviewing people with connections to the killing, Detective Montgomery finds that different people had plenty of motives to murder the rabbi.

Or perhaps it was white nationalist who has a history of posting racist flyers in Pine Bluff. With such a diversity of different suspects, Detective Montgomery must move quickly to pinpoint the suspect if he is to keep the synagogue, the town, and his family out of harm's way"--
