Yes We Can!

Yes We Can! Addresses the collaborative partnership that general and special educators must develop in order to close the achievement gap and maximise learning for all. Authors Heather Friziellie, Julie A. Schmidt, and Jeanne Spiller focus on employing professional learning community practices and the four critical questions of a PLC to modify education structures and belief systems based on the outlook that all students can learn.
