Educational Consultant: Robert J. Marzano This DVD is the fastest, most effective way to get everyone in your school focused on the research-based factors that are most apt to improve student achievement.Applying the concepts from ASCD's book What Works in Schools: Translating Research into Action, three programs and a comprehensive Facilitator’s Guide explain and illustrate each of the three categories of factors that research proves affect student achievement. Classroom scenes and interviews with educators provide concrete examples of the factors that will spark schoolwide discussions about how to improve student achievement. Plus, author and researcher Robert J. Marzano explains how to use the research-based model to identify your school's strengths and weaknesses, prioritize your options, and implement a clear plan for improvement. Use Program 1, School Factors, to introduce your school to the five school-level factors that contribute to student achievement. Hear Robert Marzano explain why the five factors are crucial to student achievement and how schools can develop a plan for incremental reform without adding new resources. Scenes from elementary, middle, and high school classrooms and faculty meetings show how educators use the research-based model to guide every step of their school improvement plan. Program 2, Teacher Factors, explores how individual teachers can have a major impact on student achievement. Marzano explains the three teacher-level factors that have the potential to improve student achievement. In classroom scenes from a variety of schools, explore how teachers can determine much of the success of their students by how they decide to interpret state learning goals, develop curriculum, and manage the classroom environment. Then use Program 3, Student Factors, to put the spotlight on the characteristics of your student population that most influence achievement. Interviews with educators and parents paint a vivid picture of what schools can do to ensure that home environment and students’ learned intelligence and motivation are supporting higher achievement.

What's Ailing Medicine examines the shortcomings of medical care in America and the prospects for finding a cures as the nation debates a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reform our health care system. How can we provide health care for the 37 million Americans who currently lack insurance? How can we provide peace of mind for 50 million Americans whose insurance is so inadequate that a serious illness would cause financial ruin? With medical expenses rising at twice the rate of inflation, how can soaring costs be controlled? This program presents the human side of these complex and controversial dilemmas by considering the perspectives of the three major players in the health care debate - patients, providers, and payers. The first of What's Ailing Medicine's three segments deals with the plight of the uninsured. In the second segment, the film examines the vulnerability of several "underinsured" patients who experience a financial calamity along with a catastrophic illness. The final segment investigates the wasteful and sometimes dangerous overuse of medical procedures such as cardiac catheterization and coronary artery bypass surgery. After the patients, their families, doctors, employers, and insurers present their frustrations with our health care system, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Senator Robert Dole respond to the documentary's personal profiles in order to illuminate the potential impact of health care reform. In addition, Harvard University health policy expert Robert Blendon, who has done extensive opinion polling on American attitudes about health care, gives voice to the priorities and concerns of the public. As Walter Cronkite concludes, with Americans overwhelmingly in favor of health care reform, "the time finally is at hand to prescribe a cure for what's ailing medicine."
