Other chapters give special attention to how workload has been allocated historically. Best practices regarding teacher workload assignments are detailed in relation to best student learning outcomes. How to measure teacher workload and make necessary load adjustments are set forth in various strategies and innovative programming.
Norton' s research on and discussion of the workload of today' s teachers addresses the most challenging issue facing teachers charged with the responsibility of educating our youth both today as well as in the years to come. His discussion of the many aspects of teacher workload give the reader--educator as well as layman--incredible insight into the complexity of the daily responsibilities and workload of teachers at all levels of education--particularly in primary, elementary and secondary schools.

It will prompt the reader to give more specific and direct attention to ensuring an equitable workload for all teachers.
