Despite the struggles over education in the US, most people agree teachers can have an enormous impact; the harder question is what makes them great. This hour we'll examine practical steps that can build trust among teachers and students, and how collaboration and peer-observations might be the key to improving the quality of education.

Guests:

Elizabeth Green, author of Building A Better Teacher: How Teaching Works (and How to Teach It to Everyone)
James Alan Sturtevant, teacher and author of You've Gotta Connect: Building Relationships that Lead to Engaged Students, Productive Classrooms and Higher Achievement
