Full Description
This best-selling text provides comprehensive coverage of general teaching methods and models, as well as of the executive skills of teaching - including planning, classroom management, assessment, motivation, and use/management of time and space. "Theoretical and Empirical Support" sections provide a broad sampling of the knowledge base that underlies and supports the recommended teaching practices found in the latter part of each chapter. The text also takes a strong applied approach, with chapter-ending case studies including responses from in-service teachers, interactive case study activities and "Teachers on Teaching" audio clips on the interactive student CD-ROM, reflection features, and portfolio resources.
