When Teaching Becomes Learning: A Theory and Practice of Teaching
Autor Eric Sottoen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 mar 2007
Intended to help anyone who teaches, this book has something of a cult following. Drawing on extensive teaching experience, the author presents a personal account of good practice, written in an engaging and accessible style and based on extensive scholarly sources.
Part I 'Learning' and Part II 'Teaching' complement one another, and the book as a whole offers an insight into how to teach in any set of circumstances. It does so without being prescriptive, instead helping teachers to think through their own problems and situations. As a result When Teaching Becomes Learning is a book to which teachers will return on countless occasions.
This edition has been updated throughout and now has 2 new chapters - Reflections of Educational Technology, and Why Teach? Chapters are now also divided up so they are each shorter and more user-friendly than before.

Recenzii
A must-read for anyone involved in teaching & learning. A coherent, clear, logical approach to the subject. Theory and practice harmoniously brought together and discussed. Full of useful advice and guidance to novices or experts alike based on longstanding experience and practice of the teaching profession.
Occasionally one comes across a book which is a little gem and which has a great personal impact. When Teaching Becomes Learning by Eric Sotto is such a book. Based on his extensive personal experience Sotto offers an insight without being prescriptive into how teachers can contribute to better learning.
It discusses methods of learning in a friendly, easy to understand manner ... it draws on familiar analogies, the author's experiences and even animal behaviour to highlight the points. This book highlights [how] an effective teacher knows not just the subject, but how to teach it in accordance with how learning actually happens.
This is a remarkable and delightful book, presented in a style reminiscent of a cross between Woody Allen and Ludwig Wittgenstein. Eric Sotto has not so much written as crafted it from a blend of his own experience and a wide knowledge of relevant psychological theory.
...You have been able to clarify for me, in readable and understandable language, many of the intuitive feelings I have had about teaching all these years but have been unable to articulate... Your book has also helped me to make sense out of all the conflicting cognitive theories used by psychologists, sociologists and philosophers... The personalised and anecdotal illustrations of the different points you wished to make were so useful to help understanding.
I am finding your book an inspiration... it has set me on a journey of reflection and reinterpretation of my own experiences of teaching and learning.
