Review title: "Along with the 'apple book', the two best guides on a short list for NBPTS candidates"
Product review: Until the release of "So, You Want to Become a National Board Certified Teacher: Workbook & Evidence Manual" (the 'apple book' as it has come to be known), this was about the only serious workbook NBPTS candidates had. Now, there are two. Both offer writing samples and helpful advice. But if you need a lot of hand-holding, this book--though more expensive--has the edge.If you want more hands-on worktables and outlines, the Parks book might get the nod. It also includes a nice guide to accomplished teaching which neatly meshes with what the NBPTS expects of teachers.This book has more researched-based pedagogy. The Parks book is more lean, practical, and checklisted.Both books will be found helpful to the struggling candidate.So, You Want to Become a National Board Certified Teacher: Workbook & Evidence Manual: A Candidate's Guide to Successfully Passing the NBPTS Certification Process
