Captivating your Class: Effective Teaching Skills

Autor Joanne Philpott
en Limba Engleză Paperback – feb 2009
This essential handbook offers practical approaches to teaching in an Advanced Level (A Level) classroom, this includes AS, A2 and all level 3 equivalents as well as the International Baccalaureate and other post-16 qualifications. It is primarily designed to give confidence to teachers to teach in a way that encourages students to enjoy learning in lessons in a purposeful way. It will build on theoretical work, where appropriate, to help reflection and planning by individual teachers for their specific subjects and classes. The references section will guide teachers to further reading for each of the chapters if they wish to explore the theory in greater depth. The key messages of the book are twofold. Firstly, personalised planning of lessons is essential, generic lesson plans will not work at A Level and teachers will need to be aware of the personalities and individual strengths and weaknesses of the students in their class to be able to structure and develop their learning accordingly. Secondly the strategies will be successful when they have been developed in relation to the subject and consolidated to secure subject knowledge and understanding. To this end many suggestions are exemplified through a range of subject examples for both AS and A2. This comprehensive guide is a must for those teaching anyone post-16.

Recenzii

Joanne Philpott's very approachable 170 pages of advice, guidance, suggestions and self-reflective questions is timely. Based evidently on a wealth of personal experience as an Advanced Skills Teacher at an A level college in the United Kingdom, and her insights into others practice, Philpott provides a rich smorgasbord of practical support for colleagues. Applicable across all subjects, this volume would provide a useful focus to internal CPD, perhaps encouraging staff to share, and illustrate practical examples of personal variations. Many teachers will do many of the things Philpott suggests already, but to bring so many thought-provoking and practical suggestions together in one volume, at a time of significant curriculum renewal, is a welcome contribution to the literature.
How do you decide if an education book is successful? Two ways come to mind immediately - firstly whether you would recommend it to colleagues or not and secondly whether it makes you reflect on your own practice. This book has achieved both. It is an easy read, is structured with lots of ideas and has superb references...An excellent book indeed.
'A hugely usable text which would earn its space in any teacher's bookcase!'
