NC State’s McKimmon Center, Raleigh, NC

In The Art and Science of Teaching: A Comprehensive Framework for Effective Instruction, author Dr. Robert J. Marzano presents a model for ensuring quality teaching that balances the necessity of research-based data with the equally vital need to understand the strengths and weaknesses of individual students.

For classroom lessons to be truly effective, educators must examine every component of the teaching process with equal resolve. The Art and Science supports effective learning with charts, rubrics, and organizers to help teachers examine and develop their knowledge and skills in order to achieve that dynamic fusion of art and science that results in exceptional teaching and outstanding student achievement.
