Synopsis
For graduate and undergraduate courses in general K-12 methods.
The new edition of this popular text clearly achieves its stated goal: to prepare prospective teachers to meet the challenges of today's changing classrooms by providing effective, practical, research-based practices in an accessible, conversational style. Material is based on a quarter-century of actual, in-classroom research that makes it possible to replace anecdotal suggestions for good teaching with solidly research-grounded strategies empirically related to positive outcomes. The author shows future teachers not only “what” to do to meet today's teaching challenges, but “how” to do it, through the experiences of real teachers in real classrooms.
