Recenzii

"Education is a noisy world of standardized testing and pressures to be all things to all people while seeming to please no one. Consequently, many teachers stick with what they know and teach traditionally, just as they were taught.  Even if they suspect they shouldn’t, they often feel they don’t have the tools to teach any other way. In a very readable and practical how-to book, Dr. Murawski and Ms. Scott have mined researched and do-able strategies from quality educators. They first describe the realities of teaching and learning today, tell us how kids learn now, caution us about what not to do and then tell us how to do it. They do the best thing…They give us the teaching tools that enable kids to learn."

"What a wonderful comprehensive tool for teachers and administrators. It is user friendly in the format in which it is presented and covers a wide range of topics that a teacher would encounter in the classroom."
"This book is full of information on best-practices and resources such as lesson plan templates, checklists, websites and apps that can be straightforwardly applied in a classroom. Feasible and innovative instructional strategies are presented in an organized, concise fashion. Particularly useful are the at –a-glance listings of the DO's and DON’Ts for teaching, which identifies actions that the authors frequently observed that act as obstacles for teaching success, as well as those actions that maximize the chance of secondary teachers making a positive impact on middle and high school students and the summary of different teaching approaches. The comprehensive amount of resources included ensures that the book is applicable for prospective teachers as well as practicing teachers. Both audiences will appreciate the insight and classrooms experiences shared by the expert educators. The book cites key research and includes the impact of educational trends and developments, such as the Common Core, throughout. This book would serve as a valuable text in teaching methods courses to inform prospective teachers about teaching as it covers new and contemporary as well as more teaching time-tested and concepts with clear, step-by-step explanations."
