Mrs. Wilson's University: A Case Study in the Ironies of Good Practice.
Dressman, Mark
Language Arts, v76 n6 p500-09 Jul 1999
Argues that the idealism that is central to most stories of good teaching practice can become an obstacle when teachers who do not work in optimal conditions try to turn "theory" into practice. Offers an alternative narrative of "good" teaching: teacher and students constructing an intellectually engaging experience under less-than-optimal conditions. (SR)
