"Arizona: Singing Down the Sun," Northern Arizona Writing Project at Northern Arizona University
Educator and author Mike Rose discusses the diversity of classrooms he portrays in his book Possible Lives: The Promise of Public Education in America--and how there is no one right way to teach.

Part travelogue, part educational treatise, and part celebration of amazing teachers, Possible Lives reminds us that there is great hope and great potential in public education.
