Books by Nancy Walker

About

Nancy Walker and her coauthors, Thomas Bean and Benita Dillard, know that content-area teachers today are swamped with mandates to meet and content to cover. As longtime researchers, writers, and teachers, they've seen students and teachers struggle with textbooks that don't teach. In When Textbooks Fall Short, they show how their research and experiences support their belief that reaching out to students through non-traditional texts helps everyone, including their teacher. Nancy is a professor in the teacher education department of the University of La Verne.
