Naturally I’m going to buy it, Tom, but I can’t find it on Amazon or Pearson Canada.

Can’t wait to read it!

  The book is set for release in mid-May so it’s not available yet. I certainly appreciate your willingness to buy/read it. Thanks!!

  That’s great Chris! Thanks for the support and hopefully the book helps push things along. Let me know if there is any way that I support you and your colleagues. Maybe a Q&A via Skype? Anyway, good luck with it and we’ll talk soon!

Will this book be available on Amazon.com?
We are looking for a book study around grading for our standards based grades.

  Eventually…I am in the process of adapting the book for US release through Pearson (I’m a Canadian) which should happen as soon as the summer. In the meantime you could order the book through Pearson Canada, but you’d have to call the 1-800 number and speak to a customer service rep. I can/will let you know when the US edition is out. Thanks for the interest!

Tom…what’s up with Canadian/US editions? Copyright? Spelling? Eliminating the omnipresent conversational “eh”?

I got my copy at the Portland, OR ATI/Pearson Conference on Sound Grading Practices. It was great to see you, and I hope I did mention that I scored the book, having missed out at the Summer Conference.

Just wondering for your US readers…can they order directly from ATI/Pearson in Portland?
