The Consortium on Chicago School Research has worked for five years with the support of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge to learn more about the conditions of education in Chicago public schools and the kinds of efforts needed to advance meaningful improvements. This presentation offers an overview of what we have learned about what constitutes high quality instruction, and how to support effective instructional practices and policies. Findings on mathematics instruction will be highlighted.
